S. M. HADLEY, eldest son of JOHN and ELENOR (CHAMBLESS) HADLEY, natives of
North Carolina, was born in Morgan County, Ind., October 12, 1838. He grew
to manhood upon a farm, and during his youth received a good English
education at the subscription and public schools of his native county,
supplemented by a course at the Parke County Graded School. October 2,
1858, he was married to SAMIRA ANN KEMP, a native of Parke County, Ind., and
has had born to him two children--CURTIS J. (dead) and LIZZIE E. Mr. and
Mrs. Hadley are birthright members of the Friends' Church, and Mr. Hadley
belongs to the order of Knights of Honor. In politics, he is a Republican,
and with the anti-temperance element he admits of no compromise. He
removed from his farm into Mooresville about the year 1872, and engaged at
once in the drug business, which he has since followed. He owns a nice farm
of eighty acres, well improved, stocked and cultivated, and in addition to
his many other duties, he has been for several years past Deputy United
States Postmaster at Mooresville. His worldly acquisitions are the results
of his individual effort and management.
