• Notes

  Both John Haydock and Mary Wright died in 1814, leaving five children. According to the custom of the society of Friends, or Quakers, the children were "apprenticed" to various members of the Society until becoming of age. James Haydock, the youngest son, was placed in the family of James Middleton, of Rahmway, a relative and an owner of a tannery, where the boy learned the trade of the tanner. When the three eldest children moved to Smithland, Kentucky, he remained in Rahway, New Jersey. He went west in 1836 and visited the other members of the family in Smithland, Kentucky. He then returned to New Jersey and worked at his trade of tanner fora short time in Philadelphia. In 1838, he returned to Marshall County, Kentucky, with the intention of settling there, and bought 320 acres of land. He was a fervent abolitionist and disliked slavery so much that he left Kentucky, going to Cincinnatti,where he worked in a tannery. In February, 1839, he went to Warnesville, Ohio, and from there to New Burlington, Ohio, where he permanently settled and remained the rest of his life.
