Wade & Webb Family History

Hilda Webb1908–1986

Birmingham · Queens · Cocoa Beach · Jacksonville

Hilda Webb grew up in Birmingham, Alabama, the daughter of James Pleasant Webb and Lila Walden. As a young woman she was a nominee for Miss Birmingham in 1925, and in 1930 a syndicated photograph of her in a new "sunburn bathing suit" ran as far away as Olean, New York. In 1933 she married Frank E. Wade at Forest Hills, Queens, and made her home in New York, where her two sons were born; she died at Cocoa Beach, Florida, in 1986.

Life

Hilda Webb was born on 29 October 1908 at Birmingham, Jefferson County, Alabama, the youngest child of James Pleasant Webb and his wife Lila Walden; the FamilySearch tree gives the date and place without an attached source.1 Her parents had married in Coosa County, Alabama, on 24 February 1901, and her older brothers Reuben Walden Webb and Harris Palmer Webb were born in 1903 and 1905; a first child of the marriage, an infant, was born and died on 17 September 1901.2 Her father also had four children by his first wife, Elba Lively, who died in 1899: Wilma Lila, Mattie Coley, James Roy and Florria Elbert Webb, Hilda's half-sisters and half-brother.3

Birmingham

The federal census of 1910 listed Hilda in the household of James P. Webb in the twelfth ward of Birmingham, and the census of 1920 found her there again.4 In August 1912, aged three, she was with her parents and her brothers "Walden" and "Palmer" at a reunion of the Webb family at the old homestead of her grandparents, Charles David Webb and his wife, near Kellyton in Coosa County.5 The Alexander City Outlook reported that forty-eight members of the family, in four generations, then belonged to it, and listed "James Pleasant Webb and wife and their three children, Walden, Palmer and Hilda, Birmingham, Ala." among those present.5

In August 1920 the Huntsville Times noted that "Miss Hilda Webb has returned to her home in Birmingham after a pleasant visit with Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Powell."6 Inference Mrs. W. E. Powell was very probably her half-sister Wilma, who had married Wade Edward Powell in Jefferson County in 1913; the note names neither the relationship nor the town, and the identification rests on the initials and the Huntsville paper.7 In September 1925 the Alexander City Outlook described her as "one of the nominees for Miss Birmingham, in the recent beauty contest," visiting Mesdames J. H. Lovelace and Dunvard O'Brien.8 A wedding notice of 1933 says that she was a graduate of the Misses Howard's School for Girls in Birmingham.9

A first marriage

On 17 November 1926 Hilda Webb married John Rogers Thompson in Jefferson County; the marriage is indexed several times in the Alabama county marriage records, and the tree places it at Birmingham.10 How that marriage ended is not recorded in the sources in hand.11 The census of 1930 listed her as Hilda Webb, under her maiden name, in her father's household in Birmingham.12 Inference Her return to her maiden name and her father's house within four years suggests that the marriage had ended, by divorce or separation, by 1930, but no record of its end has been found.12

In May 1930 a photograph of her, distributed by the Newspaper Enterprise Association (NEA), a syndicate that supplied pictures and features to papers across the country, was printed as far away as Olean, New York.13 Its caption read: "Dixie's broiling suns hold no fears for Miss Hilda Webb, above, of Birmingham, Ala., first to appear at a local swimming pool in one of the new 1930 'sunburn bathing suits.' Naturally, her suit caused a lot of back talk."13

Marriage to Frank E. Wade

On 8 August 1933 she married Frank E. Wade, son of William H. Wade of Forest Hills, at St. Luke's Protestant Episcopal Church, Forest Hills, Queens, New York, with the Rev. Philip Davis officiating.14 Frank's sister, Ethel E. Wade, was her maid of honour, and George W. Rogers was best man.14 The Brooklyn Daily Eagle described the bride as "a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James P. Webb, of Birmingham, Ala.," and the bridegroom as a graduate of Cornell University, class of 1919, and an ensign in the Naval Aviation Service during the World War.14 The FamilySearch tree records the marriage without a date or place.15

The same notice called her "a great-granddaughter of General Walden, noted Confederate general of Walden Ridge fame."14 The tree does not support this.16 Her great-grandfather in the tree is Westley D. Walden (1819–1863), whose military service it gives as captain of Company B, 60th Alabama Infantry, Confederate States Army, also known as Hilliard's Legion.16 Inference The "General Walden" of the notice is most likely a family story that raised his rank; no Confederate general named Walden is known, and Walden's Ridge in Tennessee is named after an eighteenth-century hunter, so the claim is best treated as a tradition to be tested against his service records.16

The couple's son William Albert Webb Wade, known as Webb, was born at Brooklyn on 25 February 1938.17 A second son, William Henry Wade, was born at Brooklyn on 6 December 1939 and died there a week later, on 13 December; his New York City death record names his parents as Frank E. Wade and Hilda Webb, and the tree gives his burial at Maple Grove Cemetery, Kew Gardens, Queens, on 14 December 1939.18

During the Second World War Frank E. Wade served as a lieutenant commander in the United States Navy.19 In March 1944 the Birmingham News-Age-Herald, as reprinted in the Anniston Star, reported that "Mrs. Frank E. Wade (Hilda Webb) and son, Webb, of New York City," had arrived for a visit with Mrs. Wade's sister, Mrs. Fred K. Brown, on Norwood Boulevard; she was travelling from California, where Lieutenant Commander Wade was stationed, to Miami, Florida.19 Mrs. Fred K. Brown was her half-sister Mattie Coley Webb, who had married Fred Kent Brown in 1915.20

Later years

The tree places her in Queens, New York City, in 1949 and 1950, and the federal census of 1 April 1950 enumerated Hilda W. Wade there.21 The research notes kept with her wedding notice record that in April 1950 she and her son were living in Queens without Frank in the household.22 Frank E. Wade married again in 1957.23 Inference Their marriage must therefore have ended, almost certainly in divorce, before 1957; no divorce record has yet been found.23

Hilda W. Wade died on 16 September 1986, according to the Florida death index; the tree places her death at Cocoa Beach, Brevard County, Florida, and her burial at Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida, without sources for either place.24 She is named as the mother of William Albert Webb Wade in his obituary of March 2023.25
