[Note: Margaret Catherine Chandler was married first to Alexander Fry/Frye and second to William Hays. I believe the surnames of the sons should be Fry/Frye rather than Hays as listed in the first obituary.]

6/17/2013 - marcella deckard provided the following message via SAC: "Margaret Catherine Chandler Frye Hays was my great grandmother. She married a short time after her first husband died and it didn't turn out well. She was buried next to her first husband Alexander Frye at the Burgoon Church Cem. All of her children belonged to Mr. Frye. At her death, her children requested the name Hays never be used again. I was surprised to see the name Hays listed here. Could you please put her with her husband, Alex. My grandfather would be furious if he was still alive. Abuse was bad even in those days."
