Recommended for pardon
Pardoned July 5, 1866

To His Excellency, Andrew Johnson, President of the United States.
Your Petitioner, a citizen of Campbell County, State of Virginia, respectfully applies for a Pardon under the 13th section of the Amnesty Proclamation issed on the 29th day of May 1865.
Your Petitioner has always claimed to be strongly conservative in his politics. He was an earnest supporter of the Union, up to the day when the war was forced upon the country, by the action of those whose influence was too powerful to be resisted by persons entertaining like sentiments with himself. He refused to ratifty by his vote at the polls the Ordnance of Secession, passed by the Virginia Convention, nor did he vote during the rebellion for any person to fill any office or station, whether State or Confederate. The aid which he gave to the rebellion was of such a character as could not easily have been avoided; it having consisted in furnishing a limited number of supplies for the support of the Confederate Army during the year 1863. It may be some extenuation of his offense in this respect to say that even this was done to avoid the alternative of a heavy impressment.
Your Petitioner begs leave to represent further that he has not applied for a Pardon heretofore for the reason that he has not felt that he was embraced within the exceptions to the Amnesty Proclamation. While the value of his taxable property may, perhaps, slightly exceed the sum of $20,000, he has not heretofore felt that he has voluntarily aided and participated in the rebellion within the meaning of the Amnesty Proclamation. To avoid any difficulty that may arise, however, he has deemed it best to present himself as applicant for Executive pardon, believing that clemency will not be denied to him which has been so liberally extended to others. He begs leave respectfully to invite attention to the Official copy of the Amnesty Oath and to the other papers which accompany this Petition.
Signed: M. Haden

On 24 Feb 2011, a proposal from the residents of the Evington community was made to designate a portion of State Route 24, a "Virginia Byway" for its historical significance and scenic value. Included in the description was the estate "Falkland" - originally "Forkland" at the confluence [fork] of Flat Creek & the Otter River. 200 acres with the home of Dr. Madison Haden, built in 1845. The article states that the home is currently occupied by 5th generation members of Dr. Haden's descendants.
