"MICHAEL HANLEY. As a pioneer of limited resources Michael Hanley came to the
coast in historic '49, and during the years that intervened until his death in 1889, at the
age of sixty-four, he arose to popular esteem as a farmer, large land-owner, freighter,
Indian fighter, fraternalist. humanitarian, and general promoter of the material, moral and
political welfare of Jackson county. No more representative man made his way through
the times when order and government were being established on the frontier, or more
closely identified his fortunes with the varied and changing conditions by which he was
surrounded. His was a character which instinctively permeated every phase of county
activity, leaving everything in his wake the better for his strength of courage and high
purpose.
A hard and self-denying youth was the early portion of Mr. Hanley, for his father died
when he was about nine years old, leaving his mother with the care of a large family of
children. Michael Hanley was born on the home farm near Marietta, Washington county.
Ohio, June 24, 1824, and at the age of seventeen struck out in the world as a flat-boater
on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. Associating with men from all parts of the country,
and representing as many occupations, his opportunities for observation were large, and
afforded him insight into both character and work. He went often to New Orleans, and
there noted the excitement incident to the discovery of gold on the coast, and, having
nothing to detain him in any particular place, he decided to follow the tide of emigration
westward. Embarking at New Orleans in the spring of 1849, he reached California via
the Isthmus of Panama, and until 1851 engaged in mining and prospecting on the Yuba
and Feather rivers. Not realizing his mining expectations he came to Jackson county,
Ore., and at Jacksonville engaged in the meat business with John E. Ross. In the fall of
1852 he took up a donation claim of three hundred and twenty acres in Douglas county,
two and a half miles north of Myrtle creek, on the Umpqua river, and resided there alone
until his marriage, December 13, 1854, with Martha M. Burnett, a native of St. Louis,
Mo., and daughter of John S. Burnett, one of the prominent men of Douglas county. Mr.
Burnett is given credit for the many undertakings in which he has been engaged since
crossing the plains in an ox-train first in the spring of 1849 and again in 1853.
In 1857 Mr. Hanley and his wife removed to Jackson county, and bought a section of
land comprising the Clinton and Welton donation claims, two and a half miles northeast
of Jacksonville, where they lived until Mr. Hanley's lamented death. In time he added to
his original property until he had accumulated several hundred acres, much of which was
devoted to extensive stock-raising, and he also engaged in freighting in the early days,
later on furnishing supplies to the troops in the Cayuse and Rogue River Indian wars. He
was an enlisted soldier in this memorable campaign, and participated in many combats
with the Indians. Energetic and far-sighted, he was one of the promoters of the general
prosperity of the country. Years of patient labor added to his wealth and gave him
countless opportunities for well-doing, and many are the instances still recalled of his
unstinted generosity to those less fortunate than himself. He was especially liberal to
church organizations, a fact evidencing the breadth of his mind, for he himself never
became a member of any church. As a Republican he took great interest in local affairs,
and while developing his vast property held a number of local offices. The lodge of
Masons at Jacksonville had no more popular or more helpful member. Mr. Hanley was
eminently social in his tendencies, and inclined to look on the bright and hopeful side of
life. He made many and lasting friends, and his departure from the scenes which had
known him so long left a void in the hearts of many of his fellow-townsmen.
Mr. Hanley's character was especially shown in his home relations, and the children
born into the family came to look upon their father as the personification of manliness
and honor. He gave them good educations, and taught them his code of life, watching
their developing traits with pride and expectation. John A., his oldest son, is deceased;
Alice E. lives on the home place; William D. is a stockman in eastern Oregon ; Edward
B. is living in Alaska, and is the partner of Jack Dalton, of mining fame; Ella E. is the
wife of Harry Bush, a mine operator of Valparaiso, Chili, S. A.; and Michael F. is
engaged in stock-raising near Central Point, Ore. The large estate left by Mr. Hanley has
been divided among his children, but the home place is owned and operated by his
daughter, Alice E., an excellent business manager, and most estimable and popular
woman. Miss Hanley devotes her property principally to alfalfa, having two hundred
acres in all, eighty acres of which is under orchard. It is doubtful if many daughters have
inherited so many of their sire's personal characteristics, or are so well fitted to carry on
the work to which they devoted the greater part of their lives. Miss Hanley has cherished
innumerable memories of her father, whom she recalls as worthy her tenderest thought
and most exalted appreciation." [Portrait and Biographical Record of Western Oregon p.

Note; There is conflicting information on Mary. The census in 1900 recorded her birth as
1847 when in reality it probably needed to be 1837. Findagrave picked up that date and
has it listed with her death information. The other census records say she was born
anywhere from 1832 to 1839. Information on the husbands is lacking as well.
