The surname "Fadeley" comes to us from England, where it was first found in Yorkshire. The Saxon influence of English history diminished after the Battle of Hastings in 1066, but Saxon surnames survived.

Spelling variations are common among early Anglo-Saxon names. Furthermore, as the English language itself evolved, even the spelling of literate people's names evolved as well, which would explain variations that include Fadeley, Fadely, and Fadley. Moreover, even within the same family, there are often variations, which is why you will read that George William "Fadeley" was the son of William Nelson "Fadley." It's not a mistake.

George, father of two small children, a veteran soldier of WWI, was shot and killed near his home in New Market, Virginia shortly after his return from war.

George's biography, along with the biographies of his father, his wife, and other family members, can be found in a book titled "The Root Cellar" by Gary Fadley, available at Amazon.com or by requesting a free PDF version from the author.
