Wallen Hayden settled where he now resides in 1854.  He is a native of Pennsylvania, born May 9, 1826.  His parents, Nathaniel and Margaret (Miller) Hayden, were both natives of said State.  In about 1831 the family migrated to Ohio, where the subject of this sketch was reared on a farm, and, in 1851, married Miss Rebecca Swearingen.  In 1854 the young couple, in company with Benj. Hayden and family, concluded to seek a home on the Western frontier.  They therefore, on the 31st day of May, loaded their worldly goods on a wagon and started on their long and tedious journey, which occupied until July 12, on which day they arrived at Hardin City. Here they stopped, however, but a few days, when the journey was continued to Homer, Hamilton county, where Mr. Hayden left his wife, while he took the stagecoach (which was making its first trip) to Fort Dodge.  Benj. Hayden located in Hamilton county; but the land did not suit Wallen, who returned to Hardin county, and soon located on the northeast quarter of section 25, Jackson township; and here he has since resided.  Mr. Hayden, when he located in his new home, was what one might call well-off financially, as he had brought $1,000 in cash with him, and his land cost him but $400.  But Mr. Hayden was a poor man; for before coming West he had the misfortune to have one of his legs so badly crippled by a runaway horse as to compel him to use a crutch the remainder of his days.  Wallen Hayden was not the man, however, to feel downcast, as he at once erected a shanty, and when the time come to put in his crops, he took a bag of wheat on a horse and seeded his ground on horseback.  He would also ride a horse while harrowing the ground, and in this way, by being industrious, economical and ambitious, he made his life a success.  He now owns 689 acres of land, which is free of incumberance.  Mr. Hayden is a Republican in politics, and has held local offices.  A Free-Will Baptist in religion, and a man who is highly respected by his fellow men.  The nine children are -- Sarah Maggie, now Mrs. Thomas Platts; Andrew J., Elva, E. Gary, William R., Artie, Ada and Myrtie.  Since residing in this county, Mr. Hayden was never run in debt a cent at either store or blacksmith shop.

Andrew Jackson Hayden

 

The name of Andrew Jackson Hayden, of Jackson township, Hardin county, is too well known in this locality to need any introduction to the readers of this history; it is a name that has long been honored here, for it has stood for progress in agricultural, public improvement and cleanliness in social life.

 

Mr. Hayden was born on the old Hayden homestead in this township, May 30, 1856. He is the son of Wallen Hayden, who settled in Jackson township in 1854 among the pioneers. He was born in Pennsylvania, May 9, 1826, and was the son of Nathaniel and Margaret (Miller) Hayden, both natives of Pennsylvania. In 1831 they settled in Ohio, where their son, Wallen, was reared on a farm. In 1851 he married Rebecca Swearingen, and in 1854, in company with Benjamin Hayden and family, started west to find a new home, loading their worldly goods on wagons, May 31, 1854, and beginning their long journey, which was not finished until July 12th following, on which date they landed in Hardin City, Hardin county, Iowa, where they stopped a few days, then went on to Homer, Hamilton county, where Mr. Hayden left his wife, and he took a stage-coach, the first trip of the same, to Fort Dodge, Iowa. Benjamin Hayden located in Hamilton county, but the land did not suit Wallen, who returned to Hardin county and soon located in the northwest quarter of section 25, Jackson township, where he established a home. He had about one thousand dollars when he arrived here; his land cost him four hundred dollars. Before coming west Mr. Hayden met with an accident, having one of his legs crippled very badly in a runaway, and he was compelled to use a crutch the rest of his life, but notwithstanding his handicap he forged to the front, putting up a shanty and planted a crop, with the assistance of a boy. He prospered by reason of good management and became the owner of a large tract of land, and he he became influential in his community. He was a Republican and held several local offices. He was a Free-Will Baptist and a man highly respected by all. His family consisted of the following children: Maggie married A. H. Doud, and moved to Otego, Jewell county, Kansas; Essie married J. T. Platts, and moved to Webster City, Iowa; Andrew J., of this review; Elva is single and is farming on the old place; Gerry is farming in Jackson township, this county; William is single and is farming on the old place; Artie married Winthrop Wilson, and lives in Iowa Falls; Ada L. is the wife of George Cross, of Jackson township, this county; Myrtie married A. G. Sanford, and she died in August, 1905.

 

Andrew J. Hayden received a good common school education and he lived at home until he was twenty-three years of age, when he located in section 26, Jackson township, and he has spent his life in his home community. On May 23, 1880, he married Addie J. Perkins, who was born in Eldora, Iowa, where the Winchester hotel now stands. She was born June 1, 1865; and is the daughter of John and Sarah (Platt) Perkins, both being natives of Ripley, Derbyshire, England. He came to America when twenty-one years old and located at Freeport, Illinois. His wife was the widow of Henry Platt, of England. He died in Wisconsin.

Hi Michael,

 

Unfortunately, the only mention of the name HAYDEN in my Beers' book is in reference to the marriage, March 10, 1853, of Mrs. Aby Davy, who was born August 2, 1828, in PA, daughter of Nathaniel and Margaret Hayden, of Rose Twp, Carroll Co, OH, to J.T. German, of Rose Twp. (This could also be a clue to an earlier connection. Many of the Carroll Co people came via Washington Co, PA. You might want to check their website at http://www.chartiers.com.)

 

My cemetery book has no Haydens listed, but the book does not cover Rose Twp, so you may want to check to see if one of the other volunteers has the book that covers that twp.

 

Good luck in your search.

 

Janet Van Duser
