Hedley Family Genealogy, 1936-1954

Included in this folder are notes and essays re: the genealogy of the Hedley family. (Beatrice took Earle’s last name upon marriage, before that she was Beatrice Hedley.) Three essays by Beatrice’s brother DeBonsall cover part of the family’s connection to Quaker meetings, the history of one specific ancestor Charles Hawley Bidwell, and the “Ancestry from Numerius Julius Caesar to Violet Garrigues Hedley.”  There is an application on the part of Beatrice’s mother Luella to have Beatrice become a member of “the Huguenot Society of Pennsylvania.”  There is also a small book commemorating the marriage of Beatrice’s parents Luella and Edward in 1906 and an obituary for Beatrice’s sister Gladys, dated 1966.
