9/28/09 UPDATE: "Apologies Lost To The Pines" contains my entire genealogy portfolio, and it is now available at the Clayton Genealogy Library in Houston. Major surnames are: Clegg, Barclay, Riley, Kirkland, Hayes, Sumrall, Durham and Marshall.
9/5/09 UPDATE: Via DNA, we've moved the "brick wall" back to the mid-1700s. Click MY DNA MARKERS to the left and please read the rest of this page.
I'm still hopeful about the line of Moses Hayes, born circa 1735, of the Scotch/Irish settlement in Virginia. His grandson, James Hays JR had 4 children with Margaret YANCEY between 1810 & 1820. Their 1st-born was a son. Does anybody know this son's name? (Dates fit the birth of my Isaac Simpson Hayes.)
Any male descendant of Moses Hayes, born circa 1735, can prove or disprove the connections to our known HAY/S/ES ancestors by a simple DNA test. Any help with paper trails or DNA matches would be greatly appreciated ... we're sort of stuck again!
6/17/08 DNA UPDATE: I match 25 of 25 markers to a living descendant of William Hays, born circa 1745.
The William Hays family of Kentucky is well-documented! See:

7/31/08 DNA UPDATE: Our new match with the surname HAY.
9/1/08 UPDATE: A handwritten document composed in 1915 by a grandson of William Hays, born circa 1745, has been discovered. It states 5 Scottish brothers named HAY were the first of our ancestors in America.
