From what I understand, A meteorite is named after the closest post office. If Spade is a town, and the meteorite was found 15 miles out of town and The Estacado meteorite was found 15 miles out of town, that could make a strewn field of 5 miles, not at all uncommon.

It is not too outragous to think once in a while that a piece of a
incoming meteorite will skip like a stone and fall a little
further out of place than your standerd buckshot distribution
model would allow.

I would guess if the two are only 35 miles apart that they are the same meteorite. I think it is time to hunt between the two!!!
