The Ouachita County history talks about this Henry Hays as coming with John & William Tate in 1829 on keel boats from TN and settling in AR with other Tates. There may be connections to Osment, Cox and Bryant families too. William Hays b 1816 TN and Zachariah Hays b 1826 TN are probably sons of Henry & Agnes, as Agnes age 70 is in the 1860 census living in Behestian Township in William Hays household & Zachariah is nearby. Any additional info would be helpful.
