(See back of white notebook of Genie Morris notes)
Nov 11, 1969: "I was sure that this Wm. was JOHN HAYS who md 1810,
Warren Co., O. BETSEY KELSEY. He was the oldest son of the Rev. War
soldier, JOSEPH HAYS who moved from Washington Co., PA to Warren Co.
O. abt 1795. . . .I found info that Louella LeBaron had put in the archives
at Salt Lake, on another son, DAVID HAYS who m MARY KELSEY and they
lived at Brookville, Ind. Some of the info she sent was wrong.
"I worked for years on Miami Co., Ind. and on neighboring counties since
Macy was near two others. I did find JOHN NEWTON HAYS in Montgomery
Co., but I didn't find any HAYS in Miami Co. We have the 1830 census of
Montgomery Co. so I searched it for a JOHN or WM. I found JOHN, GOERGE
and SAMUEL HAYS but these are common names. The sons of JOSEPH
HAYS, by that name, disappeared from Warren Co., O. after the 1820
census. SAMUEL HAYS m. SYTHIA BUNNELL and GEO HAYS m. MARY NOGGLE.
"Went to Crawfordsville, Montgomery Co.Indiana, seat,.. . . found SAMUEL
HAYS & wife 'SITHA'. . .right track. Found Administration of Estate of
GEORGE HAYS naming widow MARY.. . .never found JOHN or BETSEY. He was
a bit older than his brothers and in 1850 is living in Union twp.,
Montgomery Co.. Ind. with another wife named MARTHA. SAMUEL &
SYTHIA and GEORGE'S WIDOW, MARY, are there too. Next I found the
marriages of JOHN and BETSEY'S CHILDREN. According to early census,
JOHN & BETSY had other sons, about 3 more.
"Little town of Mace, Montgomery Co., IN is very near the HAYS farms.
The HAYS are not buried at Mace, though. Jim located a country cemetery
near their land and we found SAMUEL and son, REV. SAMUEL M.,
small children of JOHN NEWTON HAYS etc. Many stones were missing."
