Individual Details

Dr. James Wesley Haden

[Pat Reid's note says he lived in Texas for 81 years. If this is true, the family likely moved there in 1860; some of his siblings would have been born in Texas. However, James was still in Warren Co KY in 1870, living with his parents. Fifty-one years in Texas seems more likely.]
