Anson Hayden1

b. 14 February 1774, d. 12 January 1852
     Anson Hayden was born on 14 February 1774 at Harwinton, Litchfield Co., CT. He was the son of Joseph Hayden and Mary Hayden. Anson Hayden married Mary Ames in 1803. Anson Hayden died on 12 January 1852 at age 77.

Anson was born in Harwinton, and probably spent his earlier married life there. He removed thence to Guilford, Chenango Co., NY, and doubtless died there, as his family removed thence the next year, 1853, to Northern Illinois. He was a farmer by occupation. A receipt for his portion of his sister Sarah's estate proves that he was in Guilford as early as 1830. Jabez Hayden.

William Hayden1

b. 14 May 1792, d. 1836
     William Hayden was also a clothier, and was engaged in that occupation at Alexander, Cenesee Co., NY, at the time of his death. During his minority he worked on his father's farm, and before my recollection Uncle William taught the winter school. Others have told me of their experience when William Hayden was their teacher, a field in which he won a fair reputation. The unfortunate event of his life (his friends thought), was the breaking of his engagement with a Windsor girl to marry another party at his western home. Jabez Hayden. William Hayden was born on 14 May 1792 at Haydens, Windsor, Hartford Co., CT. He was the son of Levi Hayden and Margaret Strong. William Hayden died in 1836 at Alexander, Genesee Co., NY.

Albert Hayden1

b. 2 April 1794, d. 7 April 1879
     Albert Hayden was born on 2 April 1794 at Haydens, Windsor, Hartford Co., CT. He was the son of Levi Hayden and Margaret Strong. Albert Hayden married Dorcas A. Baker on 2 January 1826 at Bennington, Genesee Co., NY. Albert Hayden died on 7 April 1879 at Tecumseh, Lenawee Co., MI, at age 85.

Albert was the youngest of the family. He left home before my recollection, yet it seems to me I knew him in boyhood and early manhood, so many were the bright sayings and the winning ways told me of Uncle Albert by those who were older and 'knew him but to love him.' He came back to us several times later in life, and to his latest years retained his genial bearing, his love of the old scenes, and the warm atachment of his friends.

Agreeable to his request a grave was provided for him among his kindred in the old cemetery at Windsor, Conn., though he died at his last residence in Michigan. A funeral service with masonic honors ended at his grave.

When quite a young man he set forth with a stock of merchandise, and high hopes, to go into Kentucky and sell them, and at least make the beginning of a fortune, but disaster overtook him while going down the Ohio river, damaging his goods so that no after success could retrieve his fortunes. He then assisted his brother Strong a few years at Bennington, NY. Married and removed to St. Charles, Ill., where for several years he carried on successfully the business of a nurseryman.

Here his wife died, and he again sought the companionship of his kindred, to whose interest he was ever ready to sacrifice his own if need be, until in declining years he took up his home with his nephew William (son of Hezekiah), of Tecumseh, Mich., with means enough to be independent, and as much interest in the family as if he had never known any other. The name of Uncle Albert is still a household word in the homes of all his relatives who had the good fortune to know him. No Children. Jabez Hayden


From the St. Charles (Illinois) Review, Aug. 1, 1879:


Albert Haydn, Esq., a native of Windsor,Connecticut, was appointed (postmaster) following Peter C. Simmons in 1855 or 1856. Mr. Haydn removed the office to the building now occupied by George W. Osgood, where he continued to keep it through the remainder of (President) Pierce's and to the end of Mr. Buchanan's administration.

Mr. Haydn removed to Tecumseh, Mich., during the war of the Rebellion, where he died April 10, 1879. He was an influential and respected citizen and occupied prominent positions in the Masonic Order, and was also a leading member of the old Universalist church in St. Charles.

Judge Benajah Hayden1

b. 3 September 1776, d. 27 September 1852
     Judge Benajah Hayden was also known as Benajah Haden. He was born on 3 September 1776 at Harwinton, Litchfield Co., CT. He was the son of Joseph Hayden and Mary Hayden. Judge Benajah Hayden married Senee Butler. Judge Benajah Hayden died on 27 September 1852 at Harwinton, Litchfield Co., CT, at age 76. He was buried at Haden Cemetery, Harwinton, Litchfield Co., CT.

Benajah Hayden was a farmer; was born and died in Harwinton. Have not the date of his death. I had a letter from him as late as 1846. Thirteen years of his life he devoted to teaching (like a great many Haydens before and since). For many years continuoysly, 1818-1846, and perhaps later, he held the office of Justice of the Peace, and was the first (?) Judge of Probate of Harwinton District, and served five or more years. He took an active interest in the Hayden Genealogy, and I was mainly indebted to him for so much relating to the Harwinton Haydens, as appeared in Stiles' Genealogies, 1859. I think he was the inventor of a way to spell Hayden without thye y. He writes, 1841: "P.S.--You will perceive that I omit the character y in the word Haden, it being a preference I have for doing so." Jabez Hayden.

David Hayden1

b. 20 December 1761, d. 1835
     Stiles' Supplement gives an entirely different family of children to this David. It has required a long search to prove that this David belonged to the family of David of Harwinton(83), Conn. I twice visited Bateman e. at Greenbush, and the only hint I could get from him ws that this father had a brother Peletiah, and that he once went there with his father, but could not tell whether he went east or west to get there. Mrs. Oaks (Ann Jemima) of Riverton, Conn., wrote that she was named for her father's sister Jemima. They all agreed that their father died as early as 1835, at the age of eighty-four; but he could have been but seventy-four if he had been the son of David(83). On the other hand, Mr. David Ellsworth Hayden, son of Pelatiah, wrote me, 1846, that David had a son Bateman at Greenbush who could give me a record of his family. In answer to my inquiries, Mrs. Lucy Childs of Leslie, Mich., daughter of Pelatiah, wrote me, Sept. 1886, that she remembers the visit of her uncle David and his son Bateman, that her "father received him as a brother, and Bateman remained with us about six months." David received a soldier's pension for services in the Revolutionary war towards the close of his life. Jabez Hayden

Jabez indicates that David had three wives, two children by the first, three children by the second, and two children by the third. David Hayden was born on 20 December 1761 at Harwinton, Litchfield Co., CT.1 He was the son of David Hayden and Jemima Ellsworth.1 David Hayden died in 1835.1

     Newell was born in Harwinton, conn., "and removed, with his father and one brother, to Painted Post, N.Y.," on or before 1797. chills and fever led him to return to Connecticut, probably to Winchester, (where he was made a freeman, 1801); he again returned to New York, probably to Sodus, where he was living, 1846. His son Calvin of South Carolina wrote me, 1857, that his father, Newell, removed, with two of his sons, to Michigan, where he died at the age of about eighty. Jabez Hayden. Newell Hayden was born on 14 June 1766 at Harwinton, Litchfield Co., CT.1 He was the son of David Hayden and Jemima Ellsworth.1 Newell Hayden married Vashti Wright, daughter of Moses Wright and Thankful Norton.

Peletiah Hayden1

b. 10 January 1768
     In the sketch of Peletiah Hayden in the Pompey Reunion, it is said that he was "born in Newington, Conn." His father and his mother were born in Windsor and removed to Harwinton when children, and were married in Harwinton, and Harwinton's records prove that Peletiah was born there. In 1794 Peletiah "of Wethersfield" bought two acres of land in the Parish of Newington, and in 1797 Peletiah Haycen "of Colebrook," Conn., sold the same two acres of land. There appears no evidence of buildings thereon. Pompey Reunion also says that Peletiah Hayden moved inot Pompey from Kingsboro, N.Y. in 1816. So it appears that he was not permanently settled until he reached Pompey at the age of 48. Jabez Hayden. Peletiah Hayden was born on 10 January 1768.1 He was the son of David Hayden and Jemima Ellsworth.1

Oliver Hayden died in 1855.1

He was a well educated, intelligent man, and like many another Hayden, taught school in the years of his early manhood. Mr. P. P. Hubbell, of Winona, Minn, son of Jemima Hayden, has sent me a well written letter, dated Alexandria, Pa., Mar. 13, 1841, addressed to "my dear sister Mrs. Jemima Hubbell," by the above Oliver. The letter is largely devoted to the subject of religion, and assurances of attachment to his sister and friends.2

"Abijah was a man of marked good qualities of mind and heart, though during a portion of his life not heeding the laws of health; he lived to a good old age, and was in vigorous health until attacked by that fell destroyer the cholera. Until that time he had hardly known a day of sickness. At a very early age he was apprenticed to learn the blacksmith trade, and became a skillful workman. In figure he was of good height, erect, and easy carriage. He was not over impulsive, but sensible and determined. He had a great love and memory for poetry, and his mind was stored with the songs of his time. He was a man of keen perceptions; in politics he was not a strong partisan, but strove to discover the right and followed it unflinchingly. He was first a Federalist, afterwards a Whig. He was very social, loved to work, was very kind and peaceable, but resented an injury. His early life was that of a consistent Christian, but through the unfortunate practice at that time of furnishing spirituous liquors to apprentices, he became enslaved for a time, but later in life he was among the first fruits of the temperance movement, and afterwards lived many years an exceedingly exemplary Christian life, and died saying, 'I know that my Redeemer liveth.' He was a member of the Baptist Churchy, both in New York and Illinois, and universally beloved." --Edwin V. Hayden as quoted by Jabez Hayden.
