Research Notes

  • Note of Caution:James Campbell Hays was NOT the father of Col. Jack Hays, the Texas Ranger. This theory appears to have originated with Waddell (1902)1. It was prevalent for many years and can still be found in many published genealogies today. Please see page for Jack Hays for details.
