'History of Montana,' 1885, Michael A. Leeson, page 1270 (excerpt):
"J. F. Hayden, P. O. Ennis. When our subject was but twelve years old he worked by the month through the county (Fayette, PA) and at home, attending school in the winter, until past eighteen years of age. Then he came to Henry Co., Ia., intending to learn the carpenter trade of a friend with whom he went to Iowa. Hard times, however, prevented his friend from getting work and Mr. Hayden had to seek other employment, so he took a place on a farm until in the spring of 1859, when he went to Macon Co., Mo., and there pursued the same vocation. In the spring of 1863 he returned to Iowa, and in 1864 he crossed the plains with oxen to Montana, arriving at Alder Gulch about the middle of August, and immediately commenced mining. Since then he mined and farmed, and for a time kept a hotel on the Ruby, until 1871, when he located in Madison valley on his present home of 160 acres, and here carries on a general farming and stock-growing business. In company with another man he operates a threshing machine. Mr. Hayden was a member of the Grange, and has been road supervisor."
