Heasly/Hazely/Hazlett/Haisly Antrim
« on: Friday 02 August 13 20:16 BST (UK) »
Trying to find info on the family of many spellings:Heasly/Hazely/Hazlett/Haisly Antrim.

A Joshua Heasley (or any of the above spellings and more ) had a son William John Heasley  who married Sarah McCleary July 1883 Blaris Lisburn Co Antrim.
William and Sarah had 7 known children all born in Antrim: Thomas abt 1887; Elizabeth abt 1889; Hannah abt 1890; Joseph abt 1895; William John July 1896; Violet abt 1900; Kathleen abt 1901.

I have some info on William John (1896) but his father, mother, brother and sister elude me.
I would love to find out anything definite about this family. I am struggling to find anything bar what the 1901/1911 census shows.

The frustrating part in researching them all is the surname. From what I have found, the surname is recorded Hasely, Hazely, Heasley, Heazley, Haisly, Hazly, Haslett, Hazlett and many more.

Can you help?

Firstly, you'll need to alter your post by removing your email address (personal details are not allowed to be posted here)- just go to the post, click on 'modify', etc.

Wonder if these are related?
"Administration of the estate of Joshua Heasley late of Lurganure County Antrim Farmer who died 24 September 1902 granted at Belfast to Joshua Heasley Farmer."
and
"The Will of Joshua Heasley late of Lurganure County Antrim Farmer deceased who died 12 October 1871 at same place was proved at Belfast by the oath of Joshua Heasley of Lurganure (Lisburn) aforesaid Farmer the Son and one of the Executors." This one mentions son John, grandson John Robinson, daughter Mary Ann, wife (not named), son Joshua.
See http://applications.proni.gov.uk/DCAL_PRONI_WillsCalendar/WillsSearchResults.aspx

1901 census shows a Joshua Heasley of Lurganure- age 65 with a son Joshua:

1911- Joshua and mother:

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Hi,
   I can find the record of a marriage of William John Hazely to Sarah Elizabeth McCLEERY in Lisburn Cathedral Church of Ireland in July 1883. The fathers' names were Joshua Hazely and Joseph McCleery.

This obituary notice in the 1882 edition of the Constitution may be of some help----At Gracehill, Ballymena- Margaret Hazely widow of the late William died on 8th March 1882 aged 90
