From 1832 to 1834 they lived in Radcliffe having Solomon Memorial number 126457023 then James Memorial number 53970556. In 1835 they moved to Prestelee where Thomas Memorial number 78185036(Thomas' baptismal records were incorrectly filed under the name Heys) and the first Albert Hayes Memorial number 151109293 was born in 1837 they moved to Kearsley where the second Alfred Hayes was born Memorial number 151109398. In 1841 they moved back to Prestolee where Peter Hayes Memorial number 54041932, Alice Ellen Memorial number 47669654 and Samuel Hayes Memorial number 54042429 were born. On August 29 1845 they signed a 999 year lease for a 1251 superficial square yd lot on High Street in Little Lever, Bolton, Lancashire. As this was their last known address in England many people incorrectly put this as Christina and Samuel's birthplace. They operated the Little Lever shop and conducted a dye works here. The 1851 census had Samuel, wife Christiana, children Solomon, James, Thomas, and Peter working at the business as Dyers. In Little Lever they had Robert Hayes Memorial number 54042544, Ellen Memorial number 151090997, and Christiana Memorial number 151091065. The business went bankrupt with the family losing everything. The lease and all their property were auctioned off on behalf of their creditors. Samuel went to the United States arriving in New York October 22, 1851 with James and Thomas arriving New York on December 4, 1851 and the rest of the family including newly married Solomon arriving New York City April 24, 1852. The family moved to Rhode Island and Samuel, Solomon, Thomas, James, Alfred, and Peter worked in Sayles bleachery there. After Samuel was naturalized on March 31, 1857 he immediately moved the family to Wisconsin except for James to follow later after going to Massachusetts, and Solomon who later moved to Maine. June 1864 the families moved to Nebraska to Homestead near Waverley. Thomas remained in Wisconsin. On his homestead Samuel built a stone and plaster house with a shingle roof board floor having two doors and six windows. He is now learned to write and on November 13, 1866 is appointed Camp Creek (became Waverly in 1870) first postmaster. He was a prosperous farmer with 1870 assets of $2600 in sales of $1400 from his farm production.
