     I know this work is not complete by any stretch of the imagination. It is simply a way for me to keep the information straight and easily to hand. If I share it with you please feel free to make any corrections needed, but PLEASE let me know so I can change my copy also.

     All of the information comes from Hinshaw's "Encyclopedia Of American Quaker Genealogy", a book entitled "Stuart and Allied Families" By Elbridge Amos Stuart (1938), United States Census Records, and other researchers.

     Check back often as this page is, very much, a work in progress. It wasn't intended to be this way, but seems to have taken on a life of its own. I hope it becomes a resource for all HADLEY cousins.

      One source claims a HADLEY Coat of Arms as: Gules, three oval buckles argent, tongues fessways. I suppose this was for Simon Hadley.

      I will use the paternal line for simplicity in all cases where there was intermarriage. This is because most of the lines herein would carry double notation because of Ruth Hadley/Thomas Lindley/Ruth Lindley/Joshua Hadley. There are other occurrences in this document. I will show double notation in the appropriate places, but the later lines will use only the paternal line notation.

     I want to apologize for the length of this document and the time it takes to load. I have purposely left it this way so that when printed it makes a faily nice book. At last count it was something in the neighborhood of 50 pages [ singlesided ] and has grown since then. If you want to print, please be aware of the length.

     The approximate birth years for each generation are included in the table below. Also check the previouse generation because I included the children's information I had with the parents if I didn't have a marriage and/or family for that child.

Notes for Simon Hadley (1640-1711)

     His parents are often incorrectly shown as James Hadley & Friedeswide Matthew

     The first authentic record we have that Simon Hadley was in Ireland was recorded about 1680 when he petitioned Parliament for protection against the possible confiscation of his property should the area become forfeited to the Crown as was then threatened. It reads:

      To the Honorable, the Trustees appointed by an Act of Parliament made in England, Instituted an Act for granting an Ayd to his Majestie by sale of Forfeited and other estates and Interests in Ireland, etc.

     The Peticion and Claims of Symon Hadly of Ballynakill in the Kings County, Gentlemen, Sheweth

     That there was a custom given by Edward Vernon, Esq. late Lord of the Manor of Clantarfe in the County of Dublin that any person or persons should have the liberty to build Shedds at Ballyscaddan, being part of the said Manor for Incouragemt of the fishery there and those who\tab built the said Shedds were to hold the said Shedds dureing their upholding the same, paying dureing the Season and whilest fish was made there Sixpence for every Barrell of fish they should make; That the Claimant did build accourding to the said customs four Shedds and has enjoyed the same these seven or eight yeares past two of the Shedds being builte by the Claimant with Lime and stone and the other two Shedds with Clay and stone That the Claimant being apprehensive that the said Manor of Clantarfe may be forfeited and vested in your Honors by the said Act and soe the Claimant may be prejudices and deprived of the said four Shedds soe builte by him as aforesaid.

     May it therefore please your Honors to receive and allow of this your Petitioners Claime and if itt shall here-after appear that the said Manor is or will be forfeited that then your Honors would grant the Claimant the saving of his said Improvements soe made by him as aforesaid and to grant him such reliefe as to your Honors shall seem most equitable.

     It will be noted that this document indicates that he had been there for seven or eight years at that time. How much longer, we do not know.

     Simon and his wife Catherine seem to have been the first of the family to join the Society of Friends. At least we find no earlier reference to Hadleys in the Quaker records of Ireland or England. They were members of Moate Meeting, County Westmeath. From the minutes of this meeting we learn that Simon apologized to his Meeting for allowing his son, Simon, too many liberties. He himself was disowned by the Society for "marrying out of Meeting" at his second marriage when 70 years of age. Their son Simon apparently had great difficulty in maintaining his membership because of his repeated participation in military activities.

     In addition to his fishery properties in Dublin, Simon owned an iron foundry in Kings County.

     Moate Meeting records reveal that Catherine Talbot, wife of Simon, died the 20th.of 4th.month 1771, and was buried four days later. Shortly afterwards, Simon married Elizabeth _______.

     From a record in the Office of Arms, Dublin Castle, we learn that Simon died in 1711. Administration of his property was granted 6 June 1711 to his widow Elizabeth Hadley and to his children, John Hadley, Elizabeth Miller, and Jane Kiernan. No mention is made of his son Simon. No doubt he had already received his share of the estate in preparation for his departure to America.

Notes for Simon Hadley (1675-1756)

     Simon Hadley came to America about 1712 from County West Meath, Ireland. He was accompanied to Pennsylvania by his wife and six children. Two children were later born in Pennsylvania. It is unknown which ship he came over on. Many of the Friends sailed from Ireland to Pennsylvania on the ship Sizargh of Whitehaven. Jermiah Cowman was the master. However, Simon and his family do not appear on the records.

     Simon did not present his certificate of removal until four years later. At Newark Monthly Meeting (now Kennett) held at Center Meeting House, Centerville, Delaware - "4th. of 6th. mo. 1716, Simon Hadley produced a certificate from Moate Monthly Meeting in County of West Meath and Nation of Ireland which was read and accepted.




     Simon purchased 1000 acres [ #21 ] of land about 30 miles south of Philadelphia in the Manor of Steyning. When the Pennsylvania-Delaware line "C" was drawn it passed through Simon's property, leaving part of his plantation in Chester County, Pennsylvania, but placing his home and official residence, and most of his plantation in New Castle County, Delaware. This became part of New Garden Township. The house is located on Lime Stone Road, Hackessin, DE about 10 miles northwest of Wilmington (or Wellington), DE, off Route 41. Go to Kaolin (about 3 miles before you get to Avondale) and turn left. Go down Route 7 for about 2 or 3 miles, turn right and go up a hill and there you are. The cornerstone is hidden under a tree. Among the neighbors of Simon Hadley are some familiar names: Lindley [ #6 ], Starr [ #25 ], Hutton [#28 ], Rutledge [ #20 ], Miller [ John - #2 & #15, Gayan - #27 ], Rowland [ #1 ], and Johnson [#3]. All of these families were of English origin, as were all of the Friends who went to Pennsylvania from Ireland with the exception of two it is said. Many of them had been friends in Ireland and others were related by blood or marriage.
[ A perche equals 5.5 yards]

     The description that Chalmers Hadley gives to the house which was called Messuage Plantation of Steyning Manor, is as follows: The old house is on a slight eminence nearly a quarter of a mile back from the road, and the nearest railroad station, Southwood, is on what probably was once part of the place. The old house is a two and one-half story, stucco covered stone structure, and the gabled roof permits the use of rooms on the third floor. The pointed windows under the gables give a quaint appearance to the old building, and along the front extends a long porch. Underneath the pointed gable window in the front a white stone slab is sunk in the wall and on it is carved "S. and R. H. 1717," the initials of Simon and his wife, Ruth Hadley, and the date of the building's erection.

     Some distance from the house is an old stone barn which appears to be as ancient as the house itself. Tradition claims that when Simon Hadley was a very old man he was killed in the stable by a servant who planned to rob him of the considerable money he is said to have carried about with him.

     This house is still in use and in 1977 the owner's wife was a Dupont-Pierre's favorite niece. In 1716, Newark Monthly Meeting was divided and New Garden Monthly Meeting created. It was composed of the meetings of New Garden, Nottingham and London Grove. By deed dated 26th. of 10th. Mo. 1717 James Miller conveyed six acres of land to Simon Hadley as trustee for New Garden Meeting. Simon apparently was quite active in this meeting. His name frequently appears on committees and he was made an overseer 28 May 1733. He and his wife, Ruth, are buried there. On at least one occasion, we find Simon taking active part in his Quarterly Meeting also. His name appears on a petition from Concord Quarterly Meeting dated 3rd. Mo. 13th. 1734 and addressed to King George II of England, regarding the boundary disputes between the Penns and Lord Baltimore.

     Although such activities were usually frowned upon by Friends, Simon was not completely inactive in public affairs. He was appointed Justice of the Peace by Governor Fletcher 25 July 1726, re-appointed 20 April 1727, and again 1 Dec 1733. He also served at various times as Judge of the New Castle Court.

     Simon Hadley helped his sons secure land of their own. In 1726, we find that Joseph Hadley already had a tract of land near his father's plantation. In that year, Simon Hadley made over another tract of land to his son, Joshua Hadley.

Early Pensylvania Land Records - Egle,1976 pg 759

Minute Book I

28th 12mo. 1728

Joshua Hadley requests (by his Father, Simon Hadley) the grant of a quantity of land on Fishing Creek, he desires 1,000 acres.

     Attached to Simon's first will, written in 1751, following the death of his wife Ruth, was this note. "It is my will that my executors dispose of my servant lad Joseph Fitzpatrick's time for the benefit of my said children as above, written before the said will was perfected by me."

     Tradition says that Simon was killed in his stable by a servant who wanted to rob him of the considerable amount of money he carried with him. No record has ever been found to substantiate this. However, in a letter written by Simon's daugher, Hannah, (Hadley)Stanfield, from North Carolina to her step-mother, we can see that her father died suddenly in 1756:

"Respected Mother -

     This comes to let thee know that I and my family is in good health at present, hoping that these few lines will find thee and thine in the same, and I have great cause to be thankful to the Divine Being for it.

     I received thy letter dated the 31st of 5th month 1756, and was glad to hear of thy welfare and a true account of my respected father's sudden death.

     Thy brother Richard Beson was here at my house a few days ago. He told me that his wife and family was well and all of our friends here is reasonably well as far as I know, so not having much to add, I shall conclude with my love to thee and thine and remain thy loving daughter, ye 24th of ye 7th month, 1756.
                                                                                          Hannah Stanfield"

     Simon Hadley's last will, written in 1755, was recorded in 1756. There were several changes made in this last will from the former one. These included some 600 acres of land not mentioned in the last will. It may have been that at his second marriage this land constituted the settlement bestowed on Phoebe Buffington by Simon Hadley, or this land may have been given in the meantime to his two sons, Joseph and Joshua, who were scantily remembered in the last will as compared to Simon Hadley's various grandchildren. No inventory of Simon's estate was found with the will. In addition to his home and lands, Simon Hadley divided about $15,000 in money among his family, a large estate for those days. This old will, yellowed with age and held together with what appeared to be a hand-made pin, was found by Chalmers Hadley in the court house in Wilmington, Delaware, in August 1908.

     Simon and Ruth were buried in the New Garden burying ground. Chalmers Hadley visited the old cemetery but found no identification of the graves. He noted that it seems in early times, Friends did not mark the resting place of their members with a stone of any kind. Chalmers described the old meeting house as follows: "New Garden meeting house is a venerable old structure built of red and black brick, brought from England, it is said. In front of the meeting house stood a mounting stone and a low stone wall surrounded both the meeting house and the burying ground adjoining it. There was an air of antiquity about the interior of the old building. The long room where Hadleys, Lindleys, Rowlands, and Greggs worshipped in past years, was divided by sliding shutters for the men's and women's meetings. A huge fireplace was in each end, but these had been closed and stoves were substituted, the pipes of which went through limestone slabs in the ceiling. Time-worn oak panelling, put together with wooden pegs, extended around the room, and the heavy wooden benches, black from age, were covered with initials of generations of youngsters until the carvings appeared as relief work. Back of the gallery where John Salkeld, Jacob Lindley and other zealous Friends had preached in long gone days, was a case of well-thumbed, leather-bound books on the doctrines of Friends. Outside in the shelter of a splendid Magnolia tree in a score of unmarked graves, sleep the ancestors of many families in North Carolina and Indiana."

     I give devise and bequeath unto my grandson, Simon Johnson, son of Robert Johnson, certain plantation and tract of land lying contiguous to the above land devised to my grandson Simon Hadley, bounded and described as followeth:Viz. Beginning at a corner mulberry tree being a corner of the land late of Joshua Hadley but now of Robert Johnson, thence west by the same land one hundred and eighty perches to a post thence north by the said Rows land 134 perches to a corner post of the above land devised to my said grandson Simon Hadley, thence south 69 degrees, east by the said tract 59 perches to a post and south 20 degrees, east 19 perches to a gum tree and south 60 degrees, east 137 perches and a half to another gum and south 50 degrees, east 48 perches and a half to a corner black oak and south 31 degrees, east 38 perches to a corner post in the line of the land seated by my said grandson John Hadley, thence west by the same 57 perches to a corner black oak in a line of the aforesaid Robert Johnson land, thence north by the same 37 perches to the place of beginning, containing by estimation 112 acres be the same more or less with in the bounds aforesaid, with the hereitaments and appurtenances thereunto belonging or in anywise appertaining to the hold to him, my said grandson Simon Johnson, and the male heirs of his body lawfully begotten forever, but if he my said grandson, Simon Johnson should happen to depart this life without male heirs as above, then and in such case I give devise and bequeath the said tract of land and premises unto the next male heirs by consanguinity to him, my said grandson, and the male heirs of his body lawfully begotten forever, to be possessed by my said grandson when he shall arrive at the respective age of twenty-one years.

     I do give and bequeath to my grandson, John Hadley, son of my son Joseph Hadley, and the male heirs of his body lawfully begotten forever, a plantation or tract of land here-in-after mentioned, but if he should depart this life without male heirs, then in such case, it is my will and I do give and bequeath the said plantation and tract of land to the next male heir by blood to him and his heirs forever, said plantation and tract of land to be bounded as followeth; Beginning at a corner black oak in the line of the said Robert Johnsons land, thence east 130 perches to a corner hickory tree in the said Manor line, thence by the said line south 185 perches to a corner oak sapling _______________ containing within the said bounds 150 acres of land, be the same more or less, and I do bequeath to my said grandson John Hadley, ten pounds current money.

     I do give and bequeath a plantation or tract of land to ______ Johnson in the Letitia Aubrey Manor containing 93 acres and 66 perches of land. I have a deed for the same and recorded in the name of my grandson Simon Gregg, son of Richard Gregg, departed, and Anne his wife, my daughter, to him and the male heirs of his body lawfully begotten as above, but should he depart this life, it is my will and I do give the said plantation and tract of land to the next male heirs by blood to him and the male heirs of his body legally begotten forever.

     In witness whereof I have here-unto set my hand and my seal this 3rd day of November, one thousand seven hundred and fifty five (1755).

     Note before signing and sealing-- It is my will that if any of my grand-children should fall heir to any of the above said tracts of land by the death of him or them which I have willed it to, then it is my will that he or they which shall fall heir to said estate or estates, shall not have the said fifty pounds willed to them by me as above, but shall be equally divided as above to the surviving grand-children.

     Signed, Sealed, pronounced and declared by the said Simon Hadley to be his last will and testament in the presence of us the subscribers.

     This will was found by Chalmers Hadley in the Wilmington, Delaware court house in 1908. No inventory of Simon's estate was found with the will but a check of its provisions reveals that he disposed of 615 acres of land and about $15,000 in money - not a small amount for those days.

     Attached to the will was the deposition of David Finney, attorney at law, taken before William Till, Register of Wills for the probate, and granting letters of administration in and for the county of Newcastle. In this deposition Finney said, -he was at the mansion house of Simon Hadley, Esq. on 21 Jan 1756 and that Simon seemed unable to determine what sum should be left Phoebe, his wife, and Finney suggested 200 pounds, to which Simon agreed was fair in addition to the marriage settlement he had given her.

     Simon was buried beside his wife, Ruth, in the New Garden burying grounds. Their graves, together with those of their friends and neighbors, can not be identified since early-day Friends did not mark their graves with a stone of any kind.

Notes for: Joshua Hadley (1703-1760)

     Joshua was born in Ireland and was about 10 years old when his family came to America. Joshua Hadley and Patience Brown were married by a "priest". This being contrary to Friends' principles, they were disowned by New Garden, Pennsylvania monthly meeting on 24 February 1736. Upon acknowledgement of their "guilt", they were re-installed on 30 May 1737.

     It is not known when Joshua went to Virginia. He bought land there in 1748 in Augusta which is now Betetourt County. He may have located there prior to that time or at some later date. His son Thomas was married at London Grove Meeting, Pennsylvania in 1750. Thomas was 20 years old in 1748. Joshua's oldest child, Ruth married in 1742 at New Garden Meeting in Pennsylvania which would indicate that her father still lived there at that time.

     Joshua located in that part of Augusta county, Virginia now included in Botetourt county (organized in 1770), at the junction of Craig Creek and James River, just across the river from the present-day village of Eagle Rock and about 30 miles northeast of the city of Roanoke. He purchased other lands in the vicinity as will be seen from the following items taken from Chalkey's "Records of Augusta County, Virginia."

Delivered: Francis Smith, March Court 1762.

     Joshua Hadley's sojourn in Virginia probably did not exceed ten years. In 1756, at the age of 53 and within a few months after his father's death, he re-located with the other Pennsylvania Quakers at Cane Creek, NC. In the records of New Garden Monthly Meeting, PA, "7-31-1756 it was represented that Patience Hadley, having been removed for some time, writes for a certificate to Friends at Cane Creek, NC which was granted her and children 8-28-1756," and in Cane Creek minutes "10-2-1756 Patience Hadley with husband and children received on certificate from New Garden Monthly Meeting, PA.

     Joshua lived only 12 years after coming to North Carolina. He established a reputation in the community that led to the erection of a memorial monument to him and his wife Patience at Spring Meeting near Snow Camp, NC in 1931. The monument is constructed from parts of Joshua's home and grist mill. The stone bearing the bronze plaque is from the hearth of the huge fireplace, the stone supporting it is from the chimney and the two rest on a grinding stone from the mill. The locality called Hadley in Chatham county is presumed to be the former location of Joshua's mill.

Notes for: Joshua Hadley

     By his father's will probated in 1760, Joshua inherited the 180 acre Long Bottom and the 50 acre Pond Bottom on James River, Augusta County (now Botetourt), VA. However, he apparently spent all of his adult life in North Carolina. His home was situated in Alamance County near the village of Snow Camp. In July 1764, he sold the 186 acres to John McClure for 46 pounds, and during the same month sold the 50 acres to Malcolm Allen.

     Although Joshua remained a Quaker, it seems that he did not remain completely non-partisan during the Revolution. In the Department of Archives, NC and History of Raleigh, NC can be found Accounts of United States with North Carolina, War of Revolution; Page 88 of Report #83 dated July 1783; Book C, Page 103: "For sundreies furnished and cash paid the Militia of North Caroline, Virginia and South Caroline: to Joshua Hadley 5-12-4." (Apparently 5 pounds, 12 shillings, 4 pence). He is recognized as a Patriot of the American Revolution and this entry qualifies descendants for membership in D.A.R.

     Joshua was a Quaker, and he and his family were members of the Cane Creek MM until Spring MM was established in 1793 at which time they became members of that meeting. The Cane Creek meeting was located near Snow Camp, and the Spring Meeting was erected about 6 miles to the east on land donated by Joshua's in-laws, Thomas and Ruth Lindley.

Joshua's will, probated 1815 in Chatham County reads:

     To all Christian people whence these presents may come - Greetings. Whereas, I, Joshua Hadley, of the county of Chatham, and the state of North Carolina calling to mind the uncertainty of life and the certainty of death, do this 8th day of the 2nd month, 1813 publish this my last will in manner and form as viz -

     In the first place, it is my will, and I order, that my body be decently buried, and secondly, that all my just debts be paid, and it is my will and I bequeath unto my beloved wife, Jane Hadley, one horse or mare, to be her choice, and saddle and bridle, and bed and furniture, one cow and two sheep - all to be her choice.

     Also I give and bequeath to my beloved wife Jane, one certain tract of land being on Deep River, Randolph County, containing 50 acres, with all the implements of the mill, all of which I give unto her and her heirs and assigns forever. All my right, title and claim and demand what-so-ever, I give and bequeath unto my beloved wife, Jane Hadley, $300.00 in cash.

     Also it is my will and fortune that my beloved wife shall have the whole property of my home place, during her natural life or while she remains my widow, and it is my will that when either should happen that then the whole place should descend to my son, Joseph, by his paying the sum of $400.00, on which condition I give the bequest unto him and his heirs and assigns forever. And it is my will and I order that my children that I mention here-in-after shall have the sum of $1.00 each, that is to say, Jeremiah Piggot and Sarah, Thomas Hadley, Simon Hadley, William Hadley, John Hadley, Nathaniel Edwards and Mary, Jonathan Hadley, Jacob Hadley, Joseph Hadley, Jeremiah Hadley, and it is my will and I order that Hugh Woody shall have one dollar, and it is my will and I order that Hugh Woody's children shall have the sum of thirty dollars each, that is to say, James, Robert, Thomas and Elizabeth.

     And it is my will and I order that my two daughters, Catherine Dickson and Patience Piggot, and their husbands, shall have two hundred dollars -each family, that is to say - two hundred dollars to Jesse Dickson and Catherine, and two hundred dollars to Benjamin Piggot and Patience.

     And lastly, I constitute and appoint my beloved sons, Thomas and Simon, to be my executors to this my last will and testament, and for their service therein I allow them fifty dollars each. And the rest of my children whose names are before mentioned, that is to say, Thomas, Simon, William, John Nathaniel Edwards and Mary, Jeremiah, Jonathan, Jacob, Joshua and Joseph, shall have an equally division of the remaining part of all my estate after all debts and legacies are paid that are herein mentioned.
                                                                                                         Joshua Hadley

     Some sources show the parents of Samuel as A.3.3.7.5.2. David Hadley and Sarah Lindley.

If at a later time I find other information I may have to revise this link.

Notes For: Samuel L. Hadley
Obituary from Hinton Record dated October 17, 1918:

     Samuel L. Hadley was born
near Clarksville, Clinton Co.,
Ohio, Sunday, May 13,1878,
and died at his home in Loo-
keba, Okla., Oct.4,1918, age
40 years, 4 months and 20 days.
     He united in marriage with
Anna R. Suttles, Aug. 23,
1900 at Clarksville Ohio, and
to this union were born two
children, Ella Emiline, who
died Aug. 30,1901 and Ray-
mond C..
     Samuel was a member of
the Friends church in Ohio
where he was converted when
a small boy of about eleven
years old. Upon moving to
Lookeba, there being no
Friends church there he and
his family placed their letter
in the Methodist church. He
was well known and was lov-
ed by all.
     With the exception of a
year spent in California the
family has resided in Looke-
ba since Sept. 22,1905.
     He leaves a wife, one son,
a father, sister, Mrs. Etta B.
Cliver, of Lookeba Okla.,
and four brothers, Elton, Har-
mon,Albert and Gilpin, all
living in California.
     Funeral services were held
by W. E. Dean, text from I
Samuel 20:3, Monday Oct. 7,
interment being made in the
Lookeba Cemetery.
     
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled,
The boon His love has given
And though the body slumbers here
The soul is safe in heaven.
