Hello, I have been reading your emails back and forth about this Hadley family. You have found some documentation that differs from what is in the HS data base. This is not unusual. We are constantly upgrading our information. I would ask you to please make a list of documents that support these differing dates, etc and send this list to me so we can add this information to the data base. That's how we get better, by working together. Our forbearers did the best they could but in some instances they apparently made some "best guesses" which have since been repeated so many times they are taken as fact. The current position of the HS is to add the new findings, and pointing out that there is conflicting information. So please submit your findings so that we can have these updates become a part of the knowledge base. Thank you John Hadley president, Hadley Society PS You can send these updates to Sherri Hadley Rice, or Terry McLean as well. I am just offering to do the typing and then add them to the proper place. We collect these updates and then occasionally upload them to the master files on the web. Jean Hadley is now doing the computer work. ----- Original Message ----- From: <NStan22287@aol.com> To: <HADLEY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2002 2:17 PM Subject: Re: [HADLEY-L] Abigal Hadley in Surry Co NC in response to Norma earlier. > Ray, > I wonder if I shall ever get a true listing of Simon and Mary Hadley's > family.

For instance, it has Margaret Hadley born about 1812, but in "Surry > County Marriages 1779-1868", her marriage bond is listed as 15 April 1807.
