Hattie Hadley McNicol was a descendant of Leonard Headley (b. 1645 [[Manchester, England]] - d. 1683 Elizabeth, Union, NJ) & Sarah Diamond Line Headley (1649-1684 Elizabeth, NJ). Leonard apparently immigrated with his brother John, and was self-employed as a weaver and owned a saw mill, according to [https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/13797/images/dvm_LocHist001272-00553-0 Gen. & Mem. History of the State of New Jersey, Vol. 2]. It also claims that Leonard came over from England before 1664, landing at Boston, and went from there to Connecticut, then to Long Island, and in 1664 "became one of the Elizabethtown associates". According to this source, he settled five miles west of there in what was referenced as Headleytown (in tribute to Leonard), now [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Township,_Union_County,_New_Jersey Union Twp.], NJ.

Sarah's father was Thomas Diament Deming Line (b. 1613 Colchester, Essex, [[England]] - d. 1683 Wethersfield, Hartford, [[Connecticut|CT]].
