The town of Adams Civil War servicemen lists a Charles M Wait and Levi J. Wait.
We have records that show James Waite b1811  was father to Charles Waite.

 James was the brother to our John Waite b1804 whose son was Levi J. Waite.

 

Two cousin served side by side and survived.
Wonder how many Waite family gatherings or visits occurred.
We have posted family pictures with lots of Adams people and I don't have a clue who some are.

Our Baptist ancestors, Richard Waite m1802 to Charlotte Bland lived in Paulersbury 1802-07, Woodend-Towcester 1810,  Bugbrook 1811 and Lower Heyford 1814-1817. They had children, John b1804, William b1802, Richard b1807,  Thomas b1810, James b1811-1892, Joseph b1814, Nathaniel b1817 Son, John Waite 1804-1892 married Sara Masters 1806-1888 in  Lower Heyford, they immigrated to Adams, NY USA and made a family.

 The Richard Waite, John Waite, George Waite , Fred B. Waite , Earle C. Waite family formed an upstate New York family lineage that continues. These Waite eBook chapters follow the family as it evolved in Jefferson County ,NY mainly in Adams.  Leon Masters Waite separately grew the family from the same John and Sara dna roots. Our recent DNA test show Ralph Jr and Leon IV have a common dna link.

 

The wives and woman win the family strength award.
