Hi Richard, No, I do not have information about this family. HAYS/HAYES it is a popular surname with early settlers of Westchester County NY, which is on the northern border of NYC. I'm including that list in this response.

He was born in 1796, probably in a county now in Northern Ireland. He was a linen weaver after he came to America about 1817. Does anyone have any information about this family? Richard
