Betty Haley,married Simieon Tidwell. note; for Juliet Wright Haley,2nd wife of Green Haley,it is said Juliet fell over dead at age 39,from heart problems. These Haleys are responsible for the naming of Haleyville Alabama,there is a huge picture of the Haley Home inside the Dixie Diner in Haleyville. Green Haley was mentioned also in the Tories of the Hills,he was a Church of Christ minister at the White House community church. At the Haleyville Library there is a reprint of the 1889 edition Haleyville news and it tells the story how the town was named in exchange for a suit of cloths,also has pictures of the Haleys and their familys. Hope this helps someone. Betsy
