Surnames: Clark, Evans, Bates Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Xih.2ACEB/1583 Message Board Post: The subject Hays married Sarah J Clark, daughter of Aaron Bigelow Clark and Amelia Evans (both of whom are relatives of mine) in Jan 1870. They had children Ida B 1875, Rutherford B 1878, Frank J 1881, Willie 1885, and twins Maude & May 1889, the last two in Missouri, before settling in Kansas. Ida married Carl Bates and Frank, Orpha, the rest I haven't found yet. Rutherford was living with the Bates in 1900 Does anyone either know who Benjamin's parents were or have knowledge of any descendents other than those in the census records for Ida and Frank? I'd be happy to give anyone interested all the information they'd like on Sarah's side of the family.
