This may be Mary Wade, wife of Brion/Brian Wade, who was living with her husband and son, Thomas, in Columbus, OH, in June 1860. There is no other record of the death or burial of a woman with the surname Wade in Columbus in 1861; however, there were no legal requirements for reporting deaths in the 1860s, and even so, not all records of reported deaths remain extant in the 21st century (or at least not readily available via free internet resources).
The church may or may not have removed Mrs. Wade to Mt. Calvary Cemetery as the court ordered; the Columbus Diocese was unable to locate an unknown — but thought to be fairly significant — number of burials at Columbus Catholic Cemetery, and those people remain where they were initially interred unless later discovered during construction excavation.
