Margaret, since you've ordered the four volumes of Hinshaw's Kansas Quaker MM records, I won't dig too deeply for your Hadleys although there are four "listings" of them in Volume Four. In my tree, I have an Esther Jane Hadley (April 12, 1854) married to an Amos Spray (April 5, 1849) - both "Friends" and born in Indiana - both moved to Kansas. Any bells?
