General Notes: Husband - John Hay

---

He was descended from the Hay family of Scotland, whose coat of arms, etc., appear in "Burke's Peerage."

The family emigrated to America, but during the voyage two sons died and the ocean was their grave. After arriving in America they first settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Then the family settled permanently on Miller's run, in Cecil township, Washington County, where they lost two more sons in youth, immediately after their settlement. Mr. Hay was a Democrat, and in religion a ruling elder of the Seceder Church for many years.
