Does anybody know where I can get a pedigree for Mary Ludwig Hays from her marriage to her first husband forward, or for her husband's ancestors. My grandfather insisted we were related to her on her husband's side, (Hays). My mother and I did some research in Carlisle at the historical society but came up empty handed.
