Answer 1

Hello Candace The records seem pretty sparse for your ggg grandfather at first glance. I assume YOU are the Candace B. that maintains the Find A Grave Memorial to David Hayes (No. 8029031) as it gives the information you seem to know. Otherwise, I have found ONE entry on "rootsworld" connect - it has more on the genealogy for his wife Lydia Cleveland Dunbar Hayes but if you have not seen this, then I suggest you look at it - the URL is: http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=barach&id=I19999 It was posted by Gary Barach - is he a relative? There is an email address and you can send him a query to see if he knows more or what were his sources. I also searched "familysearch.org" and only find the Find A Grave web page mentioned above. I hope the Gary Barach reference helps. Happy Ancestor Hunting! Chet Snow
