REUBEN WILKINSON WADE, brother of John M., was born in Screven county, Ga., 
Sept. 23, 1828. During the late war he was captain of a cavalry company. After 
the war his fellow-citizens called him into public service, and he served the 
county as jury commissioner, as school commissioner, and as county treasurer, 
faithfully discharging the duties of each and all. He was married Nov. 19, 
1869, to Miss Petrona Fidelia Robinson, who was born in Blakely Nov. 9, 1848 —
by whom he had three children: John William, born in Blakely Jan. 7, 1872. He 
graduated from Mercer university, Macon, Ga., and is now cashier of the bank 
at Blakely. Thomas Wilkinson, born in Blakely Aug. 5, 1873, was educated at 
Mercer university, also, and is studying law at the university of Virginia; 
Adelaide Pearl was bom in Blakely Aug. 7, 1875. Reuben W. Wade died in Blakely 
May 8, 1887, after an active, enterprising and useful life, leaving a large 
estate. The firm is still continued as J. M. & R. W. Wade, under the sagacious 
management of the surviving senior brother. The Wades own large farming 
interests in Early county. The deceased brother, Reuben, was a royal arch 
Mason.
