Joshua Hadley (b. March 6, 1702/03)

Today's featured relative in my database is my maternal 8th-great grandfather, Joshua Hadley.

Joshua was born March 6, 1702/03 in Kings Co., Ireland, the son of Simon and Ruth (_______) Hadley. Joshua married in 1735 to Patience Brown, daughter of Jeremiah and Mary (Royales) Brown. Patience was born 1712-5mo-25d and died 1783-5mo-23d in Chatham Co., NC. Joshua died circa 1760 in Chatham Co., NC.
