Hi, I am not sure if my grandfather is related to Robert Wead, son of Ebonezer, but I wanted to check, Lawrence Thomas Wead is my grandfather, he was born 9/25/01 in Xenia, Oh..I think, he has a brother name Charles who still resides in Ohio, but I do not know the city. My grandfather moved to Nebraska in the mid 20's. I also wanted to know if you knew what country the Wead name originates from. Any response would be welcome. Thank you. Jenny L Wead.

I have an interest in the WEAD family line. My relative is: Lillian Bell WEAD, b.15 Mar 1887 at Green Cty, OH. She died in 1948 in Dayton, Montgomery Cty, OH. She was married to Orville Dessie Grewell, b.9 Aug 1887 in Plain City, OH.
If you can help fill in any blanks I would greatly appreciate any help you might provide.
Thanks in advance for any help you might provide. Gerry

My mother's side of the family are Weads. I have a Wead genealogy back to Ebenezer Wead, Sr. to 1751 in Pennsylvania. In this tree is a James Scott Wead (b. 1819, d.1848) who married Abigail Gowdy (b. 1822, d. 1905). They lived in the Green/Montgomery County, Ohio area. They had two sons that I know of: Alexander Gowdy Chapin Wead (b. 1844, d. 1914) and James Cyrus Fitzgerald Wead (b. 1846, d. 1928). I have not yet pursued either of these two son's families. They may be family clues for you. Ebenezer Wead, Sr. was a large land owner in Dayton, Ohio in 1796 (farm in what is now Kettering and Oakwood area). I would be interested in exchanging information with you if you want. I also have photographs of James Scott and Abigail Gowdy Wead. In my Wead research I have found the spellings, in records as Wead, Wade, Wayd, Waid and Waed (probably all in the same general family). My mother used the spelling Wade because she didn't like being called "Weed" in school which is the way some of her classmates called her.
