Biography

Susan was born about 1826, the daughter of Henry Clinton Slade and Charlotte Ewell Weems Slade, either in Virginia the District of Columbia.

"Susan Virginia evidently was named for her Aunt Susan Ann Weems, daughter of Parson and Fanny Weems. Susan Weems was Charlotte's older sister who died a year or so after she married Richard Slade. Susan Virginia Slade signed her name S. Virginia Slade so she must have gone by the name Virginia. Middle of the three oldest girls, Virginia was the last one to marry. She married Shadrach Cayce, brother of Henry Petty Cayce."^[1] […] "Shadrach and Virginia had one child that died. Virginia was the first of the Slade girls to die. She was only 22 at the time."^[1]
