  • Notes 
    • Samuel (born in 1749) settled in northeast Kentucky while the area was still a part of Virginia ... the area became Kentucky County, Virgina in December 1776. In May, 1780 Kentucky County was abolished and replaced by three counties: Lincoln, Jefferson and Fayette. Samuel Hadden appears on the tax lists for Fayette County in 1788 and 1789. His taxable holdings included salves over 12 years of age (4 in 1788, 1 in 1789), and horses (5 in 1788, 6 in 1789) but no "wheels" (apparently the county taxed wheeled vehicles). this indicates that he was most likely engaged in agriculture, but either Fayette Co. did not tax land, or he was not a landovwner at the time. In 1792 Clark County was formed from Fayette county, and Kentucky became a state. Samuel Hadden appears in the Clark county tax lists in 1793 through 1796. In 1796 Montgomery County was formed from Clark county. Samuel paid taxes in Montgomery County through 1830. Through most of those years he farmed up to 300 acres of land, mostly on the Lulbegrud Water course south from Mount Sterling in Montgomery County. He died there in 1831. His will was proved in April, 1831.

      Recorded in several spellings including Hadden, Haden, Haddon, Haddin and Howden, this is an English or Scottish surname. In either case it is locational and territorial. In England the name derives from any of the four places called Haddon in Derbyshire, Dorset, Huntingdonshire and Northamptonshire, recorded variously as Hadun and Hadone in the Domesday Book of 1086 for the above counties. The places were so named from the Olde English pre 7th Century word "hoeth", meaning "heathland" plus "dun", a hill; hence, the "heather-covered hill". The surname first appears on record in England in the mid 12th century and early recordings include: Philip de Haddon of Somerset in 1376, and Jordan de Haddone of Huntingdonshire in 1273. In Scotland the name derives from the old barony of Hadden, in the county of Roxburgh. The earliest recording from this source was that of Ulkillus de Hauden, a grant witness in Kelso, circa 1165 - 1171. In 1514, Silverster Hadden, of Kellor, witnessed a retour of service at Forfar. An interesting namebearer, recorded in the "Dictionary of National Biography", was Walter Haddon (1516 - 1572), regius professor of Civil Law, 1551, who was named master of request on accession of Elizabeth 1st in 1558. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Ailwin de Haddun, which was dated 1159, in the Pipe Rolls of London, during the reign of King Henry 11nd of England, 1154 - 1189. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

      The early settlers of the Kentucky area petitioned Virginia for an annexation as a county in 1776. The Virginia Legislature approved their petition (not without some strong oppositon), and the area became Kentucky County, Virginia in Dec. 1776. In May 1780, Kentucky County was abolished and replaced by three counties; Lincoln, Jefferson and Fayette. Samuel Hadden appears on the tax lists for Fayette Co in 1788 and 1789. His taxable holdings included slaves over 12 years of age (4 in 1788 and 1 in 1789) and horses (5 in 1788 and 6 in 1789), but no "wheels" (apparently the county taxed wheeled vehicles).

      This indicates he was most likely engaged in agriculture, and he had land in Lincoln Co. in 1781, left that Co. in 1787. Paid tax in Woodford and Lincoln in 1787-1793, in Clark County 1793-1796 and in Mongomery County (formed 1796) and paid tax there 1796 through 1830 mostly on Lulbegrud Creek, 300+ acres.
