Hello again, I would just like to thank everyone who responded to my enquiry regarding the Hayles Family. I was overwhelmed with the information I received and the way you so willingly looked up sources to try to help me out. I have made some progress but it is taking a while to go through all the emails. I'm still working on William Hayles of c 1798 and now believe he may have been born in Shalfleet and married a Sarah Bishop in 1797. I will inform you of any further discoveries. Joan Myers
