Being a blacksmith by trade, he soon discovered stone coal (hard coal) and the best of iron ore. There were a few Scotch settled just west of the trading post called Hardbargain and this settlement became known as Georgetown. About the same time some Germans organized the settlement of Berlin. Georgetown became known as Haydenberg and was patented by John Hayden in 1787; the town soon became known as Haydentown. About the year 1789, John dug out what he supposed was limestone from a creek bed of a tributary of the Georges River, in Georges Township. He attempted to burn the limestone but found it would not burn. Taking some of it to the blacksmith shop, he discovered it was iron ore of the best quality. In the town named in honor of John Hayden, there was more iron ore made in 1910 than in the city of Pittsburgh. John was a captain of a company of militia raised in the three settlements of Berlin, Georgetown and Hardbargain. They drove the hostile Indians north and west. For his service he was allotted 9,000 acres of land. An act was never passed by congress giving the right to dispose of this land and all records were destroyed in the war of 1812, only the part John donated for the Hayden Cemetery was honored. The cemetery is now known as the White Rock Cemetery. He also served in Captain Hall's company, Colonel Ford's regiment during the Revolutionary War from New Jersey; serving 6 months in 1776 and 6 months in 1777 and as stated above, moved to Pennsylvania in 1778.
