General Notes: Husband - Thomas Hayes


He was a tanner by trade, and followed that occupation for a number of years in Lewisburg, Union County, Pennsylvania. Several years after his marriage, however, he sold out that business to H. W. Fries, and engaged in merchandising with Peter Beaver, under the firm name of Hayes & Beaver. He also carried on business as T. Hayes & Co. After some years his brother James took the store, and carried on the same for many years with various partners, and Thomas Hayes continued in the grain trade, sending wheat, flour, etc., to Philadelphia, Baltimore and the North Branch region by canal, and dealing also in salt, coal, plaster and similar commodities. He afterward engaged in the milling business, which, however, was not successful, the first mill being destroyed by fire, while poor crops on account of weevil produced much loss during several years.
Hon. Thomas Hayes was one of the original corporators and trustees of the First Presbyterian Church of Lewisburg in 1842, and was actively interested in the founding of the university, in the building of the court house and of the Presbyterian Church edifice used by the congregation. During the years 1858, 1860 and 1861 he was a member of the Assembly for the Representative District of Union, Juniata and Snyder counties, and in 1861 he removed with his family to Philadelphia, at which place he served as an inspector in the custom house for a number of years.
