Message:   I think the easiest thing is if I send you some family group sheets to your e-mail address, so you can see what I have and what I don't have. I'll be very grateful if you could fill in some of the blanks.

I know in one census Simon Hayes was shown as staying with Giles Williams, and is shown as Giles Williams's brother-in-law. That led me to think that Sidonia Williams may have been Simon's sister, and I started looking for a Sidonia Hayes, but in fact the link is more indirect - Simon Hayes married Rachel Allen, and Rachel's sister Hannah married Giles Williams. Giles Williams married Sidonia Sweet in 1834, and the children born before that date were the children of Giles and Hannah. I have not dound a record of Hannah William's death or burial yet, though. There was one child born to Giles and Sidonia, also Giles, who died young.
