Wade was the eldest son of Armagil Wade, the traveller, who sailed with a party of adventurers for North America in 1536, later, one of the clerks of the privy council in London and a member of parliament, and his second wife, Alice Patten.
Both his parents died in 1568, and Wade succeeded to the family property, his father’s sons by his first wife having predeceased him. In 1571 he was admitted a student of Gray’s Inn, and a few years later, doubtless with a view to entering the service of the government, he began traveling on the continent.
A wall tablet in St Mary the Virgin Church, Manuden commemorates Wade who lived at Battles Hall in Manuden during his retirement. Wade died on 21 October 1623. He had been a shareholder in the Virginia Company, and the Wades of Virginia claim descent from his father.
