Introduction

The Hoadley family originated in the south of England and is supposed to have derived its name from one of two parishes in Sussex, East and West Hoadly, (now spelled Hoathly), one in the rape of Lewes, the other in that of Pevensey.

Mention is made in the Sussex Archeological Collections of Margaret, daughter and heir of Solomon de Hothlegh, (about 1280,) of William de Hodlegh, 1296, of Maurice de Hodleye, 1318, (11th Ed. ii.) King Edward ii sent Maurice de Hothlegh on an errand from Tunbridge to London.

In Queen Elizabeth's time John Hodeley, of Lamberhurst on the borders of Kent and Sussex, had a chancery suit against the vicar.

Thomas Hodely, of Sussex, pleb., of Queens College Oxford, matriclated 7 Dec. 1616, aged 18, B.A. 1629, M.A. 1623.

In the 17th century there were a number by the name in various parishes of Sussex and kent, who were small landholders, and the name is still to be found in those counties.

The place of birth neither of John Hoadley of Guilford, nor of William of Branford, has as yet been ascertained, though there appears to be reason to suppose that they former came from Kent. That they were related is probable, but the fact rests only at present on family tradition.
