General Notes: Husband - Samuel Hays

---

He was an early settler of Erie, Pennsylvania, and quite prominent in public affairs.

The pioneer tannery of Erie, Pennsylvania, was erected by Ezekiel Dunning, ... The next tannery in the order of time was established in 1805, by Samuel and Robert Hays, on the corner of Ninth and French streets. The latter sold his interest to Samuel, and he in turn was succeeded by his sons W. B. and J. W. Hays, who carried on a tannery in Erie for many years. [HEC 1884, 614]
