Generation No. 22. JOHN2 HAWLEY (NATHAN1) was born March 1, 1751/52 in Stratford, Connecticut (Source: Melissa Curnutt), and died March 10, 1810 (Source: Melissa Curnutt). He married MARY NEWTON in Milford, New Haven Co, Connecticut, daughter of CHRISTOPHER NEWTON and ELIZABETH BALDWIN. She was born April 2, 1745 in Milford, Connecticut (Source: Edna Hawley), and died July 12, 1799 in New Milford Suque, Pennsylvania (Source: Edna Hawley). The following information was found in the Seattle Public Library by Rose Bolam. HAWLEY ANCESTORS The name Hawley originates from two words of associated meanings. A green plat in a valley is called Haw in Northern England; a small bit of ground is called Haugh in Scotland, a hedge is also called a haw; and in Saxon, haeg is a small piece of ground near a house. Ley, leaz and lea are old Saxon words for a field or sward (grassy land or turf). This combination of two words resulted in Haugh-leaz, Hawleigh, Hawles, Hayles, Haulley, Haley and finally arriving at Hawley, although it is sometimes referred to as de la Haye or de la Hagh (of the hedge). The Hawley name appears in the battle of the Abbey at the time of the Conquest and is prominently identified in Derbyshire in 1200. A village is named Hawleigh in Kent, Derbyshire. The Hawley family arms are Thomas of Roxbury. These are the arms of the present owner at Leybourne Grange, Kent in England. Walter de Hawleigh was a member of Parliament in 1377. Thomas Hawley was a Messenger of the Bedchamber of Henry VIII and was with his monarch at the field of the cloth of gold, appointed king of the arms and herald, titled Clarenceux, King of Arms. His visitations to Essex, Surrey and Hampshire were noted, copies in the British Museum. Sir Francis Hawley raised a troop of horse at his own expense for Charles I who created him Baron Hawley. Henry C Hawley was second in command of calvary at Fonteny in 1745 and commanded at Ghent. A Benjamin Hawley was aide to Lord Hill at Waterloo. The Hawleys have always loved books. Sir Joseph Hawley left a valuable library in Kent. Frederick Hawley (b. 1827) was librarian and Shakespearean authority at Stratford on Avon. At least three Hawley pilgrims, pioneers or forefathers are mentioned. Joseph Hawley born in Derbyshire, England came to Stratford, Connecticut in 1629-30; Thomas Hawley, also from Derbyshire came to Roxbury, Massachusetts in 1650; and Samuel Hawley, who may have been the son of James Hawley (b 1558) of Brentford, England. Patriots always, the Hawley name appears often in early New England history. Gideon was Chaplin in the French and Indian War; David, Nathan and Abraham served in the Revolutionary War; Joseph (from Derbyshire) was Stratford, Connecticut's first town recorder and treasurer. Joseph Hawley of Northampton, Massachusetts was the Chairman of the Massachusetts committee sent to the Provincial Congress in 1844 (mentioned in the book of the papers and diary of Samuel Adams, second President of the United States). Another Hawley of prominence was General Joseph Roswell Hawley, of the southern branch of the family, who was born in North Carolina and moved to Hartford, Connecticut and became Governor of the State. It was at his office on February 4, 1856 a meeting was called to form the Republican party. Joseph Hawley of Derbyshire, was born at Parwich, nine miles northwest of Old Derby and four miles from Ashbourne, is considered one of the founders of the Hawley name in America. In England he was a Yeoman (freeman and landowner) and came to America in 1629-30, to New England in 1639, and on record in Stratford, Connecticut in 1650. During eighty consecutive years Joseph, his sons Samuel and John, and grandson, Captain Joseph, were elected seventy times to the Connecticut legislature. Joseph #1 was also the town recorder and treasure. Hawley, Massachusetts and Hawleyville, Connecticut are named after Hawley ancestors. A granite memorial to Joseph Hawley was erected in the Congregational Cemetery at Stratford, Connecticut in 1657 and was among the first settlers in Stratford, Connecticut in 1666. Thomas Hawley became a resident of Roxbury, Massachusetts before 1651.

Archie was also a "self-taught" carpenter. His grandson Elmer has the tools he used in the chest they came in. Archie's brothers Dwight and Fred were witnesses at the wedding of Archie and Ella and were named on their wedding certificate. Attached to the marriage certificate was a permission slip from Hiram and Emily Hawley that gave Archie permission to pursue getting a marriage license on July 28 , 1879. Archie and Ella Hawley made their first home in Weeping Water, Nebraska. After 1886 they traveled overland to Chase County, Nebraska, staying there for three years, then returning to Weeping Water, Nebraska. In 1893, they moved to Lincoln, Nebraska, and in 1895 to Mound City, South Dakota. Later they moved to Idaho and Oregon. Archie and Ella came to Oregon in their Model T and lived on the Corting River near Silverton. Archie built the home the family lived in. Archie died at home near Mt. Angel, Oregon. Ella died at the home of her daughter, Ethel, at Mabton, Washington (now Yakima Washington). Both are buried at Woodburn, Oregon. Archie's death certificate says that Hiram Hawley was born in Rhode Island and Emily Bunker was born in Rhode Island. We do not believe this to be true based on family information and several Federal Census records. Notes for ELLA RACHEL CARVER: Census Info:1870 Indiana, Wabash Co.

She married WILMER CARVER July 19, 1900 in Ashley, McIntosh County, North Dakota (Source: Carver Family Record; LDS: IGI records), son of AMOS CARVER and "HETTIE" OSWALT. He was born December 19, 1870 in Wabash, Wabash Co., Indiana (Source: Carver Family Record; LDS: IGI records), and died July 7, 1926 in Armstrong, British Columbia, CANADA (Source: Carver Family Record). Census Info:1900 South Dakota, Campbell Co. Centre Twp, household 157 line 1Wilmer Carver and Elsie Hawley were 1st cousins. There are several variations of the story but they left the states and moved to Canada because "the family" frowned on first cousins marrying. The family stayed mostly separate not knowing much about each other. In August 1900, Wilmer and Elsie moved to Canada and homesteaded in Alberta where their first two children Earl and Norma were born. The town was Urquhart, Alberta at that time. It is now Clive, Alberta. In December 1912 they moved to Creston, British Columbia and later in 1913 to Canyon school district where both Earl and Norma had their schooling. Melva was born in Canyon. Elsie and Wilmer visited in Idaho in 1920. In 1920, they spent the winter in Penticton, British Columbia. In the spring of 1921 they moved to Armstrong, British Columbia where Verna was born in 1924. None of Elsie and Wilmer's children were given middle names. This wasn't the tradition at that time. Wilmer died in the Armstrong Hospital in 1926. Elsie and the children moved to Cedar Hill near Falkland where Earl had homesteaded. Wilmer kept in touch with his sister, Laura, and father, Amos, after he moved to Canada until their death. In 1951, Elsie moved to Vernon, British Columbia to be near family. About 1970, she moved into an old folks home. In August 1994, Verna Schmietenknop Dandenault and Ross Carver (cousins) organized a family reunion of the US and Canadian relatives so they could get to know each other at last. 36 relatives and spouses attended and a new bi-annual (every other year) reunion has been planned so they won't lose track of each other again. This is excerpts from a letter was written by Elsie Carver to Rose Bolam on June 30, 1956 from Vernon, British Columbia, Canada: Dear niece Rose --- Here its better than a month since your letter arrived and I had intended to soon reply, but I do not always do as I should. I seem very stuck at writing if I can put it off - so please, pardon. It is just about a year now since you were here. I so wished you could have stayed longer and we could have had more chance to get acquainted. Robert will likely have filled out and be quite large now. Was very sorry to hear of your little grandson's death. He will be greatly missed for awhile and always remembered dearly. Thanks very much for the dates you sent me. The letter from Iva Lee last August gave me Stephen's date as Oct 25, 1950 - guess you left the 2 off the 25. She did not, though, tell me of Judith Ann so am glad you included it. Your Aunt Ethel tells me Edith married "at home" Sept 3rd, 1955 to LR Mason. She had been divorced earlier in 1955. I do hope you have found your work congenial and are getting along alright. I might take a trip up into the Cariboo country to see Carl and Norma's folks, if none get down this summer. I found Earl and his 2 sons at Salmon Arm last summer when I got there the day you left. They came home with me at the end of the week and spent a few days with Verna, Melva and I. When his wife and one daughter were through and spent a few hours among the 3 of us. But it has been 2 years since I have seen Norma's. It is a nice trip up to Quisnel and Prince George after the roads have settled in the summer time. I am wondering if any will be down this week as our Christian Convention starts on the coming Thursday so we are hoping for nice weather. Was out to Verna's about a week ago. The girls are growing, and are so much of a size strangers are unable to tell which is the oldest. Ann will be going to school this fall unless the difficulty of her not being 6 until November, hinders. Anyway she's registered for school, at present. By the way Rose did you get any pictures alright while at Verna's? She tells me your father wrote that all of his were failures. The two I took; the one of Robt and the girls is fair, the other of you, Verna & children is a bit blurred owing to my not changing the focus in the camera. Should yours not have turned out well I could let you have a copy of these if you cared for them. Your father and I have a cousin who was working in Seattle at Christmas time. That was one thing I meant to write and tell you earlier. She is a practical nurse and her home is at Clinton, Wash. RR1. She was getting anxious to get home again. She is a widow with a married son. She is a daughter of our Aunt Ada Mackie. Her address at Xmas time was. Mrs. Florence Langworthy 1305 E 43rd Apt 604 Settle Which for all I can tell may be miles from you. She has not answered my letter, but had sent it to our Uncle Harry Hawley at Clinton, and he has since wrote me, something he'd never done before. He is 9 or 10 years older than I but I've never seen him since I was around 13 or 14 yrs. That was interesting about the Robert Emmet Hawley. I rather think he is likely to be another branch of Grandpa Hawley's family - Our record only speaks of Grandpa having one brother, John Newton Hawley who grew to manhood. The other two and the 3 half brothers died while quite young. There are Hawleys living north of here on the mainline RR that are neighbors to ones I knew that I meet at different times, but I know nothing of them only they are from the states. There were Hawleys in Oregon City, Oregon in paper mill business, I think, one could see the name on the mill when passing through. But your Grandma knew nothing of them. Well perhaps this is enough scratching for this time. I'm getting to be such a scribbler at writing. I keep reasonably well and hope you and yours do also. If you see Olive tell her "hello" and that I've not forgotten her. Much love from Aunt Elsie. ---------------------------------- This is excerpts of a letter written to Iva Lee Hawley by Elsie Carver on August 7th, 1955: Dear Iva Lee, Have been wondering if you received the copy of Carver Record I sent you last April? However, I got a bit more Carver history from my cousin, Laura Shively and have made up another copy with this earlier data. Laura, some years ago while visiting her paternal Aunt in Indiana went to see Mother's Cousin George Carver, who had a book with early Carver history and the record down to my Mother, your Grandmother, Ella Hawley, who's name was last recorded. Laura was loaned and allowed to copy, what she wished from it. She went to New York in 1935, and went to the library there and also in Philadelphia, and found several names, the same as she already had but no connected history. Said she did not spend to much time looking as there were so many places she wished to see. Laura sent me her copy, to copy from, as she was unable to make me a copy at that time - owning to convalescing from a broken arm, and a cataract operation. So had her daughter send what she had - which was in pencil on brown wrapping paper. It took quite a bit of study to fully understand, without her to explain it. Please excuse mistakes & errors that have made imperfect pages - but you will likely wish to make up your lists in a form to suit your plan. There were no later records of Carver's besides the Eli & Rachel branch that we belong with. Some of the later descendants I did not copy dates, most I think you have - but if you wish any not there, I will supply what I have. Some I would like myself, are missing. Were not in Grandma's lists and not being in touch with some have not obtained some dates and names. I shall send this to your Idaho address, though I expect you may have moved if you have fulfilled your last winter plans, but perhaps it can be forwarded. Have been hoping all summer that you would take a trip up this way, and wondering if I'd be here when you did. However Verna is generally to be found. I spent two weeks up north with Earl's and Norma's at Easter, also a week two or three times other times nearer home. All folks up this way have kept fairly well. Though the hot weather seemed to be rather - disagreeable at times. Now will let this do if all not clear ask and I'll help if I can. Hope you all keep well, Love to all your Aunt Elsie Carver ------------------------- This is excerpts of a letter was written by Elsie Carver to Rose Bolam on Feb 18, 1966 from Vernon, British Columbia, Canada: Dear Rose - My birthday was rather drawn out, for I had to wash that morning - it being the day allotted to me to have the use of the washing machine. Verna & girls came in after school time bring a pot of "mums" and birthday cake, which we proceeded to enjoy - except Ann she was having an appointment for tooth filling and didn't get here till the rest had to get ready for home trip and could only manage a cup of coffee - so had to take her & Frank's piece of cake home with them. Nancy is booked to go into hospital 28, if there is a bed open for her, to have her tonsils removed next A.M. They have been giving her quite a bit of trouble this winter. The 29th of Dec - I went up to Quisnel with Cheryl & Jimmy as they went back after spending Xmas with Cheryl folk. They had told me when they can down the 24th that they had left Norma in hospital with pneumonia - but thought she would be soon home again, but when we got up there found she had been very ill and pleurisy had also set in. So she had a pretty miserable time and spent 29 days in hospital. I had gone up with idea of coming back in a couple weeks by bus. But my stay didn't end till the 1st of Feb and Normal had been home about 10 days. She stepped outside that A.M. while Lois & I got into the car to go to depot. Lois came down with me as they wouldn't let me come alone - stayed over one day then took bus back as Norma would be needing her. Norma would manage meals for herself & Bill but that was about the extent of her strength. Earl & Bertha moved into their new house Xmas - New Years week. A larger house and far from finished, but the old house was threatening to fall down. So have a happy birthday - its my oldest grandchild's day too - Grace. Earl's oldest girl, she will be 28. Jimmy's wife Cheryl will be 22 on the 24th Feb. Love from Aunt Elsie. Notes for WILMER CARVER: Census Info:1880 Indiana, Wabash Co. Noble Twp, household 162 line 4411.
