Vickye, This Moses Hadley was probably Moses Hadley, son of William Hadley and Elizabeth Warner. Rev. Moses Hadley of Wilkinson County married Ann Grimball Robert. He died before August 28, 1812. His will can be found in Book 2, p. 117 of Wilkinson County Wills. Moses was the father of that T.B.J. Hadley who shows up in Texas and at one time was mistakenly included on the Hadley Society web site as a son of Benjamin and Elizabeth King Hadley. There are some notes about him on the Hadley Society Web Site under the entry for Benjamin Hadley 1763-1830.
