Henry, John and William hadley help!
« on: Friday 09 August 19 17:22 BST (UK) »
Hoping someone can help with regards information on a john Hadley abt. 1812 who was the dad of Henry Hadley and John's parents William Hadley and his wife Mary

Henry Hadleys birth years range from 1836-1839.  He was born in Dudley, Worcestershire.  I believe he married a Jane Teague born 1838.

Parents of Henry thought to be
John Hadley born Stourbridge, Worcestershire 1810/1812

It seems his Dad was William Hadley and mum Mary but can't find anything else further on them so any help appreciated.

A John hadley married an Esther Orford 1810 • Oldswinford, Worcestershire, England and Esther's name appears on a few censuses as mother of Henry's family. But a Jane greenfield 1808–1888 married a John Hadley same year and area and I believe she may have married a Joseph Beard??   Still unsure on whether they married the same man or not and on one census Henry Hadley became a Henry beard.  So am unsure whose Henry's parents are though believe it to be Esther. 

Henry's siblings are below

Lucy Maria Hadley
1856–

John William Hadley
1857–1919

Harry Edward Hadley
1860–

Agnes Louisa Hadley
1862–

Charles Frederick Hadley
1863–1905

Frank Hadley
1865–

George Hadley
1867–

Alfred Hadley
1869–

Clara Hadley
1873–

Harry Hadley
1874–

Wallgrave Hadley
1878–

Any help with regards John, William and Mary would be gratefully received.  Thanks all.

Do you have the 1855 marriage of Henry and Jane to confirm his father

I have John hadley and Jane listed with Henry on the 1841 census and the registry index of Henry and Jane's marriage.

GRO Birth Registration
Henry Hadley, March Qtr 1839, reg. district Stourbridge Union, vol 18 page 481 - mother's maiden name Orford

Note - your describing "Lucy Maria, 1856, John William 1857 et al" as "Henry's siblings" did initially confuse.

Can find a couple of Henry's children (Harry Edward, Agnes Louisa) with mother's maiden name Teague on the GRO - but not Lucy Maria, first born.

FindMyPast has the marriage (transcription only) of Jane Teague, age 17 and Henry Hadley, age 19, on 5 Nov 1855. at Worcester. The Henry Hadley registered Mar Qtr 1839, would have been about sixteen and a half in Nov 1855 (assuming birth was registered shortly after his birth).

A possibility for Lucy's birth registration in her mother's maiden name
 Lucy Teague Sept 1/4 1855 registration district Worcester vol 6c page 258. No mother's maiden name given which usually indicates illegitimacy. So did Jane and Henry marry in November after the birth of Lucy.

added:- just seen  hanes teulu's post. I can see the birth reg on FreeBMD

Who is your direct line that you have as a child of Henry born c1839.  Where do you have that child with its parents on census, please give details.

ADDED Is it John William Hadley that married Emily Portlock who married in 1878 Bishop Ryder, Birmingham
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=815591.

That marriage names his father as Henry Hadley occ Shoe Maker

Sorry, I am only asking these questions so we can be sure we are following the right Henry
