Dear Houston: I was wondering if anyone helped you establish identity of Hayes family members on your list. Since you didn't indicate when they married or a time frame for them, I checked everything I could on my notes and records on the Hayes family(one of my surnames). The first names- Gladys Hayes/Bertrand N. Simmons sounded familiar to me and brought me back to my family group record which included Perrin(Paren) Hayes born 9-3-l834 in Plaquemine Brulee, La and buried in Hayes Protestant Cemetery(died Sept. l876) and his wife, Mary Ann Simmons(daughter of David Simmons and Amelia Foreman) of Sugartown(Beauregard Parish) born ca. l838 and died in l899 in Liberty Hill, Texas. Paren was the son of Thomas Hayes and Mary Ann Foreman of Hayes, Louisiana. It may be Gladys Hayes and Bertrand N. Simmons were cousins as cousins married cousins a lot in the past. My grandmother's brother, Solomon Hayes,I believe was father of Robert Lee Hayes, b. 2-22-l906 - l98l, and according to an old newspaper clipping I found in my grandmother's papers, he was stationed at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas during World War II. I never found out who Robert Lee Hayes married. Don't know if this Robert Lee Hayes is the one you are looking for info. on. The other Hayes names I can't be sure about. Let me know if I have helped you at all. If you can make it to the genealogy library in Lake Charles, you might want to find out about subscribing to the Hayes Maze. Anna Hayes would be glad to help you and give you the information. It is a great help for those of us trying to sort out which Hayes was which. Bonnie
