They usually led much more interesting lives than a lot of the, shall we say, more "traditional" ancestors. As for the books on your list to write, you'd better get cracking before you become a genealogical statistic yourself. We always think we have all the time in the world to get things done but it just isn't always the way it happens. And the more years I see the more I realize I'll never get everything done that I'd like to.QuiltinLibraryLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16392850776832804028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849506599116665235.post-74792640010350177152011-03-21T12:10:54.050-05:002011-03-21T12:10:54.050-05:00Margaret Parx Hays father was Parx Orr Hays.

He married Ianna Jones, who was the eldest daughter of Charles Jones.<br /><br />There is a profile of Parx Hays in 'A History of Texas and Texans' by Francis White Johnson. A quick search for "Parx Hays" (with quotes) in Google Books should produce the profile, should you want to see if there is any possible connection.Amy Coffin, MLIShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00612044786240692282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849506599116665235.post-39056756128209103352011-03-21T12:03:41.985-05:002011-03-21T12:03:41.985-05:00WOW, interesting!

I've not reasched this line too much for personal reasons. I do have info back to my great grandmother but that's it. My dad's name was his grandmother's maiden name and his grandmother's married name plus his father's last name - Hays Coulter Post. My mom use to tell me the spelling of Hays was very uncommon for a surname, that it usually was spelled 'Hayes' when a surname. I find that not necessarily true, at least in my research.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12670461716038876587noreply@blogger.com
