James was born October 13, 1787 in Green County. James was about 13 in 1801 when his parents left Tennessee and moved to Ohio, where he grew up, married, and started a family.
In 1822, when James and his family moved to Indiana, James was about 35 and his son, Joel, was about 3. In 1824, James bought 160 acres near West Newton, Indiana and in 1826 he bought another 80 acres. He and Phebe lived here the rest of their lives.
During this time, James was active in helping runaway slaves as an article from the Indiana Historical Society Publication, the Underground Railroad, indicates:
"There was a party of 4 fugitives at James Hayworth's house nearby, and it was arranged that the next morning Levi Coffin would take one of them into his carriage and Hayworth would take three in his and they would all proceed north together. (Levi Coffin was President of the Underground Railroad)

Appears property owned originally by James Dillon Haworth passed down thru his son, Edward and then to Edward's son John Dayton Haworth who in 1893 sold property to West Newton Cemetery Co. for $1000 for the large West Newton IN cemetery.
