The Hathaway Family Association has been
organized to stimulate interest in the collection,
compilation, and publication of the history and the
genealogy of the Hathaway family.  Some of the
variations of the spelling of the surname Hathaway
include: Hatheway, Hathway, Hadaway, Hataway,
and Hattaway. The Oxford Dictionary states:  A
heath is a tract of land and a heathway is a path
across the heath. Such is the possible origin of the
family name, Hathaway.  There are also numerous
Old English spellings, which may have preceded
the more common spellings known today.
Although there have been other immigrants, three
early Hathaways immigrated from England to
America in the 1600's:
Nicholas, from whom the
largest group descends,
Arthur, and the line we call
William of Virginia.  We hope you will enjoy
exploring our collections and research on the
Hathaways of America.
