She never moved to or lived in Texas, as some family trees show. The 1860 Henry County, IA, census shows Tennessee Hayse as single and living in the home of her parents, John & Priscilla Hayse. She married Samuel Smith the next year and they continued to live in Iowa in 1870, 1880 & 1900 (see census photos at left). They are last shown in 1900 in New Market, Taylor County, IA, sharing their home with a 15-year-old foster child, Effie Bunker. Tennessee Hayse Smith is sometimes confused with Tennessee Amanda Hays Cox (1847-1901; Memorial# 6319884), who was also born in Mississippi. However, Tennessee Cox moved to Panola County, TX, and died there. She never lived in Iowa. She was the daughter of John R. Hays & Margaret Amanda Fite Hays, who are buried in the same Texas cemetery as their daughter, Tennessee Cox. The 1860 census shows Tennessee Amanda Hays living in Panola County, TX, with her parents, John R. & Amanda Hays. Clearly, there are two different women named Tennessee Hays/Hayse, who were born around the same time but ended up in two different states and married two different men. They are not the same person. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The following shows Tennessee Hayse Smith is buried in Memory Cemetery. At one time, she had a headstone. I hope it hasn't been lost to time.
