There is a Benjamin Hays in Granville, Washington Co., NY in 1800, in Plattsburgh, Clinton Co., NY in 1810, in Beekmantown, Clinton Co., NY in 1820, in Bridport, Addison Co., VT in 1830.. In 1840 he is in Ferrisburgh, Addison Co., VT, and in 1850 he is back in Beekmantown. At that time it says he was born in CT about 1776 and is age 74. His wife in 1850 is listed as Sarah Hayes, age 56. She appears to be his second wife, perhaps with the maiden name of Case. Who was Benjamin's first wife, and what are the names of their children? Thanks, Joann Nichols
