Descendants of James HADEN and Mary HENSTOCK
James HADEN, born abt. 1832, Old Swinford, Worcestershire
The first trace I have of James HADEN is on the 1851 census, at which time he was aged 20 and living with his sister, Mary, and her husband, Henry HAYWOOD, in Grove Street, Heath Town, Wednesfield. By 1861, James had married Mary HENSTOCK and was still living in Grove Street, a few doors away from Henry and Mary Haywood. As yet, I have been unable to trace James on the 1841 census, although I have found his sister Mary with her husband Henry Haywood living on their own in Old Swinford.
James was buried, aged 69, on 28th January 1901 and it's known that some of James and Mary's grandchildren spent time in the Cottage Homes at Wednesfield. These were built in 1889 to house children who would otherwise have been in the workhouse.
