Ancestors of Mandy Willard

James HOADLEY (1764-1844)

and Mary/Sarah (c1774-1844)

James Hoadley may have married twice.  Firstly to Mary and then to Sarah, or Mary and Sarah may have been one and the same.  No possible marriage(s) have been found in either the IGI or the Sussex marriage index.  (They were not my direct ancestors.  James was the brother of my 4x Great Grandfather, Richard Hoadley.)

James Hoadley was baptised on 1 July 1764 in Edburton, Sussex.  He was the second son of Thomas Hoadley (1738-1823) and Mary Matthew (1723-1816).  He was a yeoman farmer.  James died aged 80 years from Bronchitis on 6 November 1844 and was buried on 11 November 1844 in Henfield.  His death was registered by his son-in-law Stephen Yeates.  James left a will dated February 1832 (I have a copy of this document and will eventually transcribe it and include in this site.)

Mary and/or Sarah's date and place of birth/baptism are unknown, to me.  I have not found a possible burial for Mary.  Sarah was born about 1774 and died aged 70 years on 22 February 1844.  She was buried on 24 February 1844 in Henfield.

In 1841 the family were living at Eastout, Henfield.
