Anthony was a member of the Badgleys, one of many pioneering families in the early history of our country.

Born in 1660, he was the son of English immigrants George Badgley (1616-1670) and Alice/Alicia Turner Badgley (1618-1670).

In 1692 he married Elizabeth Thorne in Flushing, Queens Co., NY and they raised a family of 11 children:

George Badgley 1688 –?, George Anthony Badgley Sr. 1693 – 1759, Anthony Badgley 1695 – 1732, Phebe Badgley 1696 – 1715, Sarah Badgley 1696 – 1785, Cornelius Badgley 1697 –?, Phoebe Badgley 1698 – 1776, James Badgley 1699 – 1777, John Badgley Badgley 1700 – 1759, Sarah Badgley 1700 – 1785, and Elizabeth "Betsey" Badgley 1702 – 1733.

He is buried on private property in Bidwell, Gallia Co., Ohio according to Ancestry.com subscriber rodbadgley.

Anthony was my 8th great-grandfather, his is a heritage I gratefully embrace.






He settled in Flushing toward the end of the 17th century. He petitioned the authorities for a warrant to survey a lot in Flushing called "Hemp Lot", belonging to him in order to end the encroachments of Thomas Hedger and others. He was evidently in comfortable circumstances, at least for in 1707 he was one of a company composed chiefly of wealthy men which purchased through the agent, Peter Sonmans, a large tract of land in New Jersey for which it paid the Indians in cash and in goods. This tract contained about 170,000 acres called "New Britain" lay about thirty-three miles northwest of Elizabethtown. He was sergeant in Captain Jonathan Wright's Company of Militia in 1715 and probably died within a few years as to further mention of his name appears.
