Debra;
My dad, who is 95 years old, was born and raised in Martin Co., Indiana, and remembers some of the HAYES family there.A distant relative, SARAH FIELDS, was a first cousin to his grandfather, WILLIAM FIELDS. She married LEWIS HAYES on Dec. 23, 1858.
One of their sons, JEREMIAHHAYES, married IDA TODD in July of 1889.Supposedly, Ida's great-aunt was MARY TODD LINCOLN___one of her brothers' and family moved in to that part of Indiana from Kentucky.
The first child of Sarah and Lewis, WILLIAM BENSON HAYES,was born January 12, 1860.But he was born in the MARTIN/GREENE county area of Indiana, not in Iowa.
He did marry MARY DILLON on Oct. 28, 1885, and their children were:
Winneford (Winnie) Hayes____b. June 27, 1887
Essie Antha Hayes______b. Sept. 9, 1889
Lewis R. Hayes______b. Feb. 13, 1892
Ruth Mary Hayes______b. May21, 1892
Alice Dorothy Hayes_____b. Jan. 5, 1898
Jannie Hayes________b. July 7, 1898
Hillary Hayes_______b. ?
Viola Hayes________b. April 15, 1905
I have in my notes that Essie married ELMER FISH onFeb. 4, 1906.
I also have the list of their children.
So, guess what, we are related!
Your cuz,
Penny Fields Gardner
