I just don't know, Pat.Wish I could say one way or the other, but I cannot with any certainty.I don't have full trees for all of Nicholas Hays sons, for instance, the son John b. c1756 Bedford Co., VA d. 05 May 1833 Jefferson Co., TN who married (1) Jenney Thompson 02 Aug 1779 and (2) Polly Shedden 22 Oct 1805, was believed to have had a son John Hays Jr. b. c1781 about whom I know nothing.His wife might have been Patsy Davis, but that's all I know.He would be in the correct time frame to be a parent to your John b. c1823 TN.
Your family followed the same paths of mine - AL>AR>TX, but that means nothing at this point in time, except it shows us they were in close proximity.
Wish I could help.Maybe you could find some information in Jefferson Co., TN records about John???
My John W. Hays was in Alabama in the early 1820s.We know this because some of his children were born there (census information), but we do not know in which county he lived.We have some slim clues, but nothing solid.I don't have access to any 1820 Alabama census.
