I looked and there is a Joseph Hayes in Pineville LA. Of course, there is probably no way you would know if that one is yours are not, but he is in the town yours was born. If that is not the right Joseph, he might still know him, considering the town. Let us know what happens, I think this is really interesting. Good luck! Lorenda Todd
