      DAVID CLARK HAYES,
  
  [p. 924] a general farmer and representative citizen of North Beaver
  Township, resides upon his well improved farm of fifty acres, which is
  situated about a half mile west of Bessemer. He was born on this farm in
  Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, March 21, 1869, and is a son of John W.
  and Jane (Huston) Hayes.
  
  The great-grandfather, David Hayes, was the original purchaser of the
  land in North Beaver Township, on which successive generations of the
  family have since been reared. In 1837, the second David Hayes,
  grandfather of David Clark Hayes, of Beaver County, Pennsylvania, where
  he was engaged in the practice of law, purchased the tract of 200 acres
  which his father had secured in North Beaver Township, Lawrence County.
  In 1840 he married Margaret Crawford and they had one child, John W. The
  latter was born in 1843 and was reared and educated in North Beaver
  Township, where he still resides with his wife and family, being one of
  the prominent agriculturists of this section. He married Jane Huston and
  they had four children: Charles, David Clark, Mrs. Elsie Livingstone and
  Samuel Bert.
  
  David Clark Hayes resides on the farm which has always been his home,
  growing to manhood amid familiar surroundings and attending the same
  school in which his father had obtained his education. He married Ostie
  Myers, who was born and reared in Springfield Township, Mahoning County,
  Ohio. Mr. Hayes has made all the improvements on his part of the old
  farm, erecting his large frame house in 1889 and still further adding to
  its comfort and appearance by building an addition, in 1905. Mr. Hayes
  is one of the solid, reliable men of his township. In politics he is a
  Republican but takes no very active part in public matters, but he is
  always alive to the best interests of his neighborhood and gives hearty
  assistance to all movements which will add to the general welfare. He is
  a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
