Wow I still can't believe that I found this family at last!  it been 24 years at look for them and you wouldn't believe 6 days after I found birth of Dorah Hayes who conceitedly born 25 December 1870. and baptism 26 December 1870 (142 years ago today!).  With your and Aghadowey help I would have found them in USA  and finally found out were they move to another was.   

I also discovered on following you links to family search.  I manager find another child to Timothy and Mary nee Costello and that was William Hayes born 1 July 1880 in Rockingham, Vermont.   So this give me another lead to work on.  Once get home from Boxing day sales today and may be the bay as annual Carnival start today - (shouldn't say this but just hope it not hot yesterday - as we hardly had much of summer this year as it lucky doesn't rain every second day)

All I say is thank you both again and hope your Xmas day going as plan.  As I going to sales now for boxing day!!

Just found another topic of yours-
Looking for Hayes, Eager and Lafoe of Haverhill, Essex, Massechuetts (U.S.)
I suspect the reason you'd no replies is that the information appears to be all jumbled up with mentions of Hayes then Eager then Hayes, etc.

And another Hayes topic-
Hayes Married ? and lived in Vernal st & Brown st, Massachuetts )U.S.

As you see I have done a lot work over the last couple years to get where I'm now.   As I never knew my Grandmother died 1961  and born in 1970 I have only had basic information work from eg.  Street in Massachuetts  neither my Mother or Aunty knew the town name.   they didn't even have clued how spell the last name Margaret Eager  or remember her first name.   only first name I every hear were Tom, Maurice and Hannah.   
Other basic information was on Great Grandmother married certificate that she was born in Ireland and her parent were Maurice Hayes  and Dora Lynch.  and she was in New Zealand 18 months.  and her age which was out to as state she was about 5 year old than she really was.  She was marriage John Lynch born in Ireland and Son of Michael Lynch and Catherine Barrett.  I start with follow them in Ireland.  And slow work to Hayes.

Here are three records that help me work out fact on this family. they all from http://irishgenealogy.ie
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/736b470507067  the marriage of Margaret Hayes to John Eager on 22 January 1869.

This record I only stumped across on Friday as I want to work immigration to USA for Margaret and John Eager as this give that information that still in Ireland in December 1870.  As I trying working out.  But this record change my focus very quickly
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/fffb080484178  This is Dorah Hayes Baptism where Margaret Hayes and John Eager are name Sponsor.  Her parent were Timothy Hayes and Mary Costellae.  And it quiet timely to find just before Xmas for a bady born on Xmas day nearly 142 year ago.

The third record was one search for immediately after find this was marriage of Timothy Hayes to Mary Costello http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/c941b80592653 This record show that Timothy's father was Maurice.  They were married on 20 January 1870.

With information that his mother nick name was Dora  and that Margaret and John as Sponsor to his first child.   I realist that found more out about the family.  And I see as post these record that Timothy was witness to Margaret wedding.  but when Timothy got married that William was his witness.

I have spent many years working on this part of family with major brick as I was doing from New Zealand and was lead believe like most starting out research there are no Irish record.  and not know name of anyone.  I never dream that I would get this far!    For mehttp://irishgenealogy.ie has been excellent site as my grandmother family have all come the Kilflyn and Tralee areas.  So I manager get back to marriage in 1817 for her father family.  but I still have one major which might take another 24 year to find how related the Lynch part are to each other as both from Kilflyn originally. But that side issue at moment.   I just like find my Hayes family.  As my Mother regular asked if found anything about them.  and it Holiday time so I take some time out my busy schedule to do some for myself not other people this Xmas.  I love tell my Mother (Dorothea known Dorothy(85)) and her sister (Noreen(84)) that I finally found out about there grandmother family as I manager find out all rest there grandparent except for Hanora until now!  this include their mystery man as grandfather they knew nothing about! and eaiser to find of them all!!! (not John Lynch as I had lots information as three geneation travel to New Zealand together)

I never seem to write these right as I try give as much information as I have at time to spark a memory of a name.   As you see I really seem mess it up every time.    But I guess it show how far I have come  as I remember rootsweb with only a few names and possible last name.

I would like thank you for your help as I have already gain some information about this family as I gain more unstanding of my great mother family and were they went to.  Wishing you a Merry Xmas
