Hi Margie, It is my opinion that these Hadleys are from the George Hadley of Ipswich line. Brad Barr has a good web site on this Hadley family. I will attach the links page from the Hadley Society web site, which has the link to Brad's web site and also some others you might find interesting. The HS was originally dedicated only to researching the family of Simon Hadley, and is often referred to as the Quaker Hadley line. The HS now is working to have a broader scope, and help all Hadley researchers. While looking at the HS website, you might also enjoy the research work from early England done by yours truly. This relates to the origin of the surname Hadley, which really applies to all of the branches of our family in many aspects.

I have lots of info on the Putnams, and I believe Jacob's father is Joseph b. 1722, married to Martha Guile, but this part of my research is foggy. Information I have on Jacob: > Jacob Hadley enlisted in the Revolutionary army at Goffstown, NH and served at the battle of Lexington in April 1776, in Col. Stark's regiment, and at the battle of Bunker Hill in April '75. He was among the earliest settlers at New London, NH and his name is among the signatures for the petition for incorporating the town, Jan. 22, 1779. About 1785 he settled on a farm at Hancock, NH, and subsequently moved to Hyde Park, VT. This information was obtained from newspaper clippings from Trudy and Ella Mae Dahl, elderly sisters and descendants from Michigan. We also have a letter from them. She mentions "Hadley Hall, Morristown, N.Y." > In the D.A.R. Patriot Index - Centennial Edition page 1261, I got his birth & death dates and he's listed with Elizabeth Putnam. The book states he was a private. > He's not listed in the Graves of Revolutionary Patriots. > He is in the Orleans county, VT section of The Pension Roll of 1835, Vol. 1, page 957. > > Any information you can help with is certainly appreciated. > Thank you, > Margie > in Half Moon Bay > > > ==== HADLEY Mailing List ==== > HADLEY Message Board: > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=board&r=rw&p=surnames.hadley > HADLEY List Archives: > http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/HADLEY/ > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 > >
