Seth Hayes
I am related to a Seth Hayes who was born on 26 Dec 1737 in Lyme, Middlesex County, Connecticut. He is the son of Richard Hayes and Patience Mack. In the Middlesex County records it has the family listed as Haze. When I started to research my Seth Hayes, I keep running into the Seth Hayes who was born in 1753 in Simsbury, CT. One or both Seths was at Valley Forge (can't remember). My Seth Hayes married Elizabeth Hayes, reported to be the wife of his brother. I have no other information on her. The other Seth has a daugther/granddaughter named Thankful. Again, one or both does have sons named Seth, Jr.
Hope this helps with the Seth Hayes "confusion".
If anyone has further info on my Seth Hayes, please let me know. I'm willing to share information on both Seths.
