Ray, I wonder if I shall ever get a true listing of Simon and Mary Hadley's family. I have so many different dates and placements for the children, I'm running out of space! The one you found on Rootsweb also leaves a bit to be desired. 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. I have children listed that aren't on every list and other lists have children that I don't have. Oh, my, I love genealogy! On the other hand, the list for Jacob and Abigail's children's birth dates is almost identical to mine. I noticed someone on the web questioned where this information came from - that would be interesting to know. I haven't found documentation for births anywhere, just some of the marriages. Hopefully some day someone will run across some information that will solve this puzzle. In the meantime, I shall accept that Abigail is the daughter of Simon and Mary, because of the naming of her children, if nothing else. Happy Hunting to you in whatever you are searching for. Norma

You might try Quaker Minutes for children. I saw several listings for the Hadley's in the _Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy_ Vol 1 by William Wade Hinshaw. They were all listed under the Cane Creek Monthly Meeting minutes. Alas!!! Not my Hadley line (I am Joseph Hadley md Lydia Drake mostly of Halifax Co NC) Good luck CindyHMB At 05:17 PM 8/14/2002 -0400, you wrote: >Ray, > I wonder if I shall ever get a true listing of Simon and Mary Hadley's >family.
