17367. Jonathan Wade. Born on 5 Mar 1682/3 in Medford, MA.304 Jonathan died ca 1710 in Medford, MA.153

ca 1701 Jonathan married Mary [Wade].

Why is Jonathan’s wife’s surname sometimes given as Dolbear? If whe was Mary Dolbear, was she a relative of Edmund Dolbear of Salem? (He had Elizabeth b. 3 Oct. 1684; Sarah, b. 29 Jan 1686; Thomas, b. 1 Dec 1687; Barnard, b. 18 Sep 1689, d. soon; and Barnard, b. 18 Apr 1691.)

The Descendants of Col. Jonathan Wade and Some of His Descendents Who Settled in Rhode Island, A Speical Report for the Rhode Island Historical Society, 3 May 1999, by Charles, V. Waid. Parts I and II, page 4 also says that Johathn married Mary Colbeare. It adds that she was born about 1682 in Medford, Middlesex County, Massachusetts.

Roberts’ Governor Thomas Dudley and descendants153 states that Jonathan Wade married Mary Dolbear in 1701 at Medford, and that Mary Dolbear was born 13 Apr 1677 at Medford, “she appears to be of unknown parentage.” But there are no references to justify these statements.
