Summary
HADDEN, George
George Hadden graduated BA from Harvard in 1647, and stayed on to take an MA. It has been suggested that he might be the son of Garret Haddon, who arrived in 1630, but this seems unlikely. His origins are unknown.
Hadden returned to England by 19 May 1654, when William Cutter* of Newcastle upon Tyne wrote to Henry Dunster, president of Harvard: ‘I am sorry to heare lately that Mr hadden is to mary one of the daughters of a very great mallignant: and that he keeps so much socyety with them: he comes seldom hither.’ Perhaps Hadden can be identified with George Hayden (Hawden, Hawdon), vicar of Stannington, Northumberland (ten miles north of Newcastle), from 16 September 1657 until 1662. Hayden was ordained priest by the bishop of Durham on 22 September 1661, and became vicar of Nazeing, Essex, from 8 November 1662.
