General Notes: Husband - Robert Hays

---

It was about 1795 that he and his brother John arrived at Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and within the next ten years, about 1803-04, they removed to Venango County, where they settled permanently. Coming to Franklin, they secured a tract of one thousand acres in Oakland Township, trading soldier warrants for this land, and the part on which they made a home lay six miles west of the mouth of Oil creek and eight miles north of Franklin.
Robert removed from Venango County, finally settling at Louisville, Kentucky; one of his grandsons was Will S. Hays, long connected with the Louisville Courier-Journal. The latter's son was a practicing physician in Louisville in 1918. [HVC 1919, 646]
