  • Notes 
    • John Hays (Hayes) was born in 1705 in County Donegal, Ulster, Ireland. He and Jane Love were married in 1724 in County Donegal. Because of trouble with the Excise Laws, John and Jane came to America in 1730 or 1732 and settled in Chester County, PA. Their dwelling in Chester County was burned to the ground so they moved to the Irish Settlement in what was then Bucks County, now Northampton County near Weaversville, where John kept a public house, store and tannery. They had five sons and four daughters. After John's death in 1789 Jane moved to Northumberland County with her son Robert.
      His Will [#1319, Northampton Co.], dated 9 Apr 1783, lists his children: William, John, Mrs. Elizabeth Wilson, James, Robert, Francis, Mrs. Isabella Patton, Mrs. Jane Brown, Mrs. Mary Gray (later Steele).
