I'm interested in tracing the Hedrington family back to Ireland. I've gotten back to 7 brothers who immigrated to the Chippewa Falls, WI area in the 1850s: John b. 1828, William b 1832, Daniel b. 1836, Benjamin b. 1840, Cornelius b. 1843, Matthew b. 1845, Jeramiah b. 1848. I believe their parents were John and Mary or Martha and I believe they immigrated to the USA as well. Spoken family history is that in Ireland, the Hedrington's were Hetherington's and were forced to leave Ireland, although I cannot corroborate.
