Overview

John's father in initially settled with his parents in Augusta County PA about 1740. By 1760 his parent had left the area, to living in the general area of Derry Township, in what is now Dauphin County PA. William may have remained a few years in Augusta, but by 1767 had moved to PA, living in Derry Township where son John was born in 1775. By 1777 William had located near Mercersburg, Franklin County PA, where he died in 1804. It is in this area that John (16) grew to adulthood.

John Duffield Hay (1775-1830). He was a son of Col. William Hay, "Lieutenant of Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania" during the Revolution, and was born near Derry, in 1775. He went to Vincennes, Indiana in 1803; was married to Sarah Harvey, of Hagerstown, Maryland. At the organization of the Church in Vincennes, in 1830, he was elected a ruling elder, and sustained that relation until his death in 1840. He was largely engaged in mercantle pursuits in Vincennes.
