At a remote period in history, his paternal ancestor came from Ireland and his maternal ancestor from Holland. When only a babe, Mr. Hayes had the misfortune to lose his father, who was killed by a runaway horse, and when the lad was about five years of age, his mother removed with the family to near Ravenna, O., and settled on a farm. There the boy remained, attending the district school until the age of twelve, becoming well grounded in the elements of farming and acquiring the vigor of constitution, which in later life has enabled him to endure great labors and has promoted success. Then he learned the trade of a painter. The old farm and homestead are yet owned by Mr. Hayes, who has since enlarged the estate to two hundred acres and erected thereon a fine country residence, where the family spend their Summers. It is reported that Mr. Hayes said, on leaving the farm to go to Cleveland, that as soon as he could get $10,000 together, he would return and buy the old place; but it was not until 1885 that he found the time to indulge in this luxury.
