| Notes |
- In the 1860 Federal Census, J. H. & Avaline Hadley are living in Sacramento Co., CA, with their three oldest children: Aurora, Elmore (Elmer), & Avaline (Evaline). Elmer was probably named after Evaline's brother. Jesse & Evaline probably went to California because of the great Gold Rush, as her father Virgilious had done. However, since they were married in California, the question remains as to why Evaline made the journey as a single teenager, leaving her mother and young siblings. Was she going to "keep house" for her Dad?
In the 1880 Federal Census, the family is living at Silver Creek, Marion Co., OR, a few doors down from Eveline's brother F. M. Remington, and near her brother Elmer Remington, and their families. Other Remington family members are also in Oregon at this time. Jesse & Eveline's family group at this time includes their seven youngest children. Later census data indicates that they may have had another child who died young, for a total of eleven.
Notes in quotation marks are from Marcia Farina's excellent family web site, "Deep Roots in Hancock, Co., Illinois":
"A second great-granddaughter of Jesse and Evaline, Anna Hadley, advises that she has a handwritten family history dictated by Evaline Remington Hadley shortly before her death in April of 1927. That history gives June 15, 1829, as Jesse's birth date, but his sister, Marinda, was born on September 22, 1829. Cumulative census listings and information recorded at the time of Jesse's death (his age was said to be 73), tend to indicate that he was born in 1827."
(My note -- censuses I have consulted show his estimated year of birth to be c1828 or 1829. He could have been born either year, even in 1829 if he was a twin, one of which had a later birth. However, I am using Marcia's suggested date for continuity of data.)
"Jesse and Evaline are named as Early Oregon Pioneers; they are said to have arrived in Silverton, Marion County, Oregon, in 1865. In 1866, there is a record of Jesse selling a parcel of land in Sacramento, California, in Township 010N, Range 007E, Section 20."
