25 May 1843 Billy D. Haden to Evan A. Davis, trustee, of Davidson Co for $5, land adj Rowland Crump, Daniel Click & Thos Deadman where sd Haden lives & Negroes to pay debts. Wit: Forest Monroe [Probably a mortgage deed. He may have been in financial difficulty - he also sold a slave along with the 260 acres of land.]

[There is a marriage from an Elizabeth Haden to Evan A. Davis, 5 Mar 1839, Davidson Co. This is the remarriage of Douglas P. Haden's widow. There is also in Davie Co a marriage of Thomas J. Deadmond to Caroline E. Haden, 1 Jun 1848. Caroline initiated a lawsuit against William Haden, son of Joseph & Margaret Maxwell Haden. Davis researchers believe her to have been Caroline Davis, sister to Evan, and a wife to William D. Haden - she would have been his third wife.]

I have no clues as to who Melinda E. Haden might be. Unless this was misread and it's Caroline E.


Caroline Haden, widow of Billy D., remarried 1 Jun 1848, Davie Co, to Thomas J. Deadman.

The household of Thomas and Caroline Deadmond in 1850:
1850 Census, Davie Co NC Hh 757
Thomas J. Deadmond, age 39, b. Davie Co, NC [it was Rowan when he was born]
Caroline, age 32, b. Davidson Co
George Becker, age 10
America Haden, age 10
Catherine B. Davis, age 24

Catherine was Caroline's youngest sister. America must be a child of Billy D. Haden. Some researchers have suggested George was also Caroline's child and if he were enough older than America as he seemed to be in 1860, she could possibly have had a brief earlier marriage - however, there is no such record.
