The
Clarenceville, Quebéc
From this particular Hawley line we can trace the connection to the Macfie family of Clarenceville, for whom this web page was constructed.
The Macfie's are not the only Clarenceville family to intermarry with the Hawley and it would not be altogether inaccurate to state that at least 85% of the families originating from the Clarenceville area have Hawley blood lines. Today however there are no Hawley's left in this area, most of them returned to the United States to seek their future and few have ever returned other than to do genealogy work. Many of the Hawley males went to western Canada, where land was being offered by the gouvernment The Hawley Home was sold to outsiders after the death of the last Hawley, Clarence who died in 1985. The Hawley cemetery, which is located on a piece of farm land adjacent to the Hawley Home on South Beech Ridge,and became the resting place for the family and many of their neighbors.
As to the Macfie, well two of Alexander Macfie's children married thier counter parts from the Hawley family . The eldest son Robert married Sarah Eliza Hawley, and his eldest sister married Herman Allen Hawley. Through this Hawley line the Macfie family has the privilege of being able to claim United Empire Loyalist connections, and proudly display U.E.L. after their family name.
As the children of these families grew up, we find that many of the Hawley moved as did the Macfie into the same areas of both developing countries ( Canada & the USA) where they worked together in many concerns. William Alexander Hawley was a mining supervisor in Grass Valley where John Macfie his uncle was located, and Eugene Creller also. Marshall Peter Hawley moved out west to Assiniboia with Claude Robert Macfie where they continued to farm.
For a more complete vewing of the Hawley family itself we suggest that you take the time to review their home page

| Newbury Edy Hawley 1811-1879 | Joseph A Hawley 1816-1823 | Sarah Alice Hawley 1825-1844 |
Johanna Adams was the daughter of Henry Adams and ( !! ) Tryon ( she is living with Edy Hawley in 1851 listed as 73 yeas old, Anna Hawley is living at the samelocation she is listed as 46, it would seem that she is an old maid by then)
Missing information of Hannah Anna ( as of 2004)
| Jesse Hawley 1801-1885 | Married April 4th 1830 Clarenceville Qc | Sarah Curtis 1804-1877 |

| Newbury Edy Hawley 1811-1879 | Married Feb 25 1838 Clarenceville Qc | Harriet Bunker xxxx-1851 |
On the 1851 census Edy Hawley is living with his mother Johanna, and his sister Anna, neither a wife nor and childern are listed, so it might be assumed that Hariett died before 1851, she is most probably buried in the Hawley Cemetery on South Beech Road.
Or as there is a Harriet Bunker 14 years of age, listed on the 1851 census living with her widowed mother Sarah (38) perhaps the married date that I have is incorrect and Edy Hawley married this Harriet Bunker at a later date ( to be verified and corrected if need be)

Notes taken from undated newspaper article glued into Wessy Macfie's scrap book
In February of this year Mr Smith resigned at Montreal and was appointed General Manager of Gray-Campbell Limited, with headquarters in Moose Jaw. This origanization is one of the largest carriage distributors in the West, having branches at Winnipeg, Brandon, Saskatoon, Edmonton and Calgary. Mr Smith is also sales manager of the Gray-Dort Motors Ltd, for Saskatchewan and Alberta, this automobile concern being a subsidiary of the Gray-Campbell organization. He has been for some years interested in the development of Western Canada, being a member of an eastern syndicate that owns a large tract of land in Alberta.
Essentially a lover of farming, Mr Smith at present operates a farm and ranch in the Vermilion district. In a recent interview, he voiced his enthusiam over the future of the Canadian West ' Bussiness promises to be good for our company during 1916 '
said he. ' All signs indicate that the slight shaking down of the last two years has placed business in the West on a more substantial basis. We are now entering an era of prosperity that should satisfy even the unbounded optimism of the Westerner '
With his wide experience and maked executive ability , we are confident that Mr Smith will be a caluable adjunct to his company in his responsible position as Western general manager.
