(Aaron's brother Joseph Hadfield owned and operated successful stone quarries in and around Waukesha and north in Lannon, Wisconsin for a number of years, and served the Chicago area with building materials after the great Chicago fire. A half-brother William Shaw Hadfield was a frontiersman in Logan, Colorado from about 1863, when Aaron's father John immigrated to Waukesha, Wisconsin in 1863 with his remaining family.)
