My 3-g grandfather was Samuel HEADLEY b 1802/1807 in PA/VA. This information comes from the Fulton Co, IL, census so I don't know if this is correct. I don't know who his parents were or when and where he died, though I presume he died in Fulton Co, IL. He mar Rachel SCOTT b 1802/1805 in PA. The only child I know of is my 2-g grandfather John Barret HEADLEY b 5 June 1842 in VA/WVA and died 25 April 1917 in NE. John Barret mar Sarilda S. MAHANNAH August 1862 in Canton, Fulton Co, IL. Apparently the males in my HEADLEY line disliked their given names and used nicknames. John and Sarilda's children were Meridith (went by the name of Dan), Benton Eugene (went by the name of Jake), Andrew Jackson (went by the name of Jay), a son who died at age 3 went by the name of Dockey and I doubt that was his given name, William, Rachel Ann and Mary Elizabeth. Meridith (Dan) HEADLEY said that his father also went by the name of Dan. True or not, I don't know. In the 1860 Census of Fulton Co, IL, there was another Samuel HEADLEY living nearby. In the 1870 Census of Fulton Co, IL, this Samuel HEADLEY is living next to John Barret HEADLEY who is living next to his father Samuel. I am assuming this second Samuel is related. Do any of these names appear in your line? Betty Jackan
