Patrick Hays 1705-1790 was the emigrant from Donegal. Parents were Elder Wm David Hays (1680-1714) m Jane Love (1681-1725) born, married and died in Donegal, Presbyterians. I would like to know more specifically where in Donegal, to see if certain families emigrated together and intermarried in America.
No luck with records for Hays however, the 18th-century Love family was from the parish of DRUMHOME (see townlands of Ardeelan, Ballintra, Carrick West, Kilbarron, Lacklum, Rah, Roniney, Trummon West, Trummon East).
