Carol A. Wells-Perlaky's Notations:
Notation 1: Maiden name has also been shared, by some, as Conney, Cosney and some other variations. I went with Cooney.
Notation 2: On most records, of the children, the mother is most often listed as Ellen. On Hugh Hayes's death record the mother was listed "Nellie". The Ireland Death Index record also shares Ellen. I forget to note where I found Eleanora as her longer, or more formal, first name thought.
Notation 3: I got vague dates of birth and death from other trees, but I can't quite fully "peg down" those dates or locations as of this point in time. I found a death index record, that the estimated birth year would be around 1806, so the date used on here, but it could be anywhere between a 10-year time frame of 1805 - 1815.
Notation 4: Share DNA matches with some this person's known children's descendants.
Notation 5: Known ancestor of Carol on maternal side of her family tree.

Carol A. Wells-Perlaky's Notations:
Notation 1: Surname may also be shared at times/by some as Hays or Hayse in some online trees. I went with Hayes based upon children's baptismal records and also the spelling used by Michael & Hugh on their census and death records, as well their obituaries/death notices in newspapers, in the United States.
Notation 2: On most records, of the children, the father is most often listed as John. On a death record the father was listed as Michael, so that's where I came across Michael as probably being part of his name.
Notation 3: I got the vague dates of birth and death from other trees, but I can't "peg down" those dates or locations as of this point in time - as displayed with my sharing two death index records which one, of the two, may be for him? The two Ireland Death Index records have the estimated birth year averaging to be about 1797.
Notation 4: Share DNA matches with some this person's known children's descendants.
Notation 5: Known ancestor of Carol on maternal side of her family tree.


Notation 6: Tentative, or speculative, set of parents'names, for Micheal John Hayes, I have are William Hayes and Catherine _____.
