    So interesting. That story got really sad really fast. It’s a great lesson on how across the centuries, human beings are human beings, and family dynamics are at the heart of so many issues that people have in their lives.

      This was a lot of BS, he knew who his Grandmother was. Her name was Barbara Hayes. It's really awful how they twist the story around. The picture they show of "Aunt Sallye, who is MY mother. His Grandfather Bill and His Grandmother Barbara.

    My great-grandmother's maiden name was Hayes. She was from Texas. From what I could tell when I did a family search, the Hayes name goes even further back, and has French origins (de la Haye). I wonder if there's a distant connection. No idea. It's so hard to say, especially once oceans are crossed and records are either lost or poorly kept and name spellings change, etc.

    • @gavsky23
      @gavsky23 6 лет назад +5

      Very interesting, I am a Hay with Scottish ancestors on my Father's side. The Hay/Hayes/Hays all seem to originate from Normandy and the de la Haye family name. Certainly a strong Scottish connection (where some de la Hayes ended-up after the Norman conquest). Not surprising that the roots go through Scotland/Ireland and all over the world!

    I find it interesting how different this show is when it's produced in America as opposed to Britain.
