General Notes: Husband - Robert Hay


He was born in Ireland of Scotch-Irish parentage. He came to the United States when quite young, and in his early manhood engaged in the fishing business along the New England coast for a short time. He then came to Pennsylvania, settling near Pittsburgh, in McCandless township, Allegheny County, where he took up large tracts of land. It was then heavily covered with timber, but he succeeded in clearing a large acreage, and became one of the most prosperous farmers of the county in his day. He was one of the charter members of the First United Presbyterian Church in the city of Allegheny, to which he belonged for thirty-nine years, and for many years one of its influential officials. He died at the advanced age of eighty-seven.
