He was named Johann, anglicized to John. He could speak five
languages fluently: German, French, Spanish, Creole and English.
From "Portrait and Biographical Album of Louisa County, Iowa" Acme
Publishing Co. 1889
When he was twelve years old his parents removed to the West Indies,
and there resided for three years. In that country the death of the
father occurred, after which the mother with her children returned to
Prussia and lived for four years. They then decided to make their
home in the New World, so came to America, landing at a port in
Maryland, where they remained for a year. In 1847 they came to Iowa,
settling in Louisa County. The parents were members of the Catholic
Church.
John was reared on a farm, and came to Louisa County in 1847, where
his mother rented land, which he and his brother farmed for two years.
On the 10th of May, 1849 he was united in marriage with Margaret A.
Keever, a native of Vermillion County, Indiana. She was a daughter of
Elias Keever, who was one of the earliest pioneers of Louisa County,
and the second settlers of Jefferson Township. He was born in
Georgia, and was a son of Peter and Christine (Rogers) Keever, who
were natives of Wales. He was reared upon a farm, and they were among
the pioneer settlers of Vermilion County, Indiana. Mr Keever remained
at home until about 1827, when he was united in marriage with Mary P.
Shaw, native of Maine.
In the spring of 1832 they came to Iowa, settling in Jefferson
township, where the husband took a claim and made his home until his
death in 1840. The mother died six months later on the 19th of May.
At the time of his death Mr Keever owned 520 acres of land. He was a
thorough business man, a great worker, and one who took a active
interest in public affairs. Politically, he was affiliated with the
Democratic party. Mr. and Mrs. Keever were the parents of five
children, two of whom are still living: Mrs Hays, the wife of the
subject and W.O.P. Keever, now a farmer at Nodaway County, Missouri;
he was a soldier in the war for the union.
Mrs Hays was only nine years old when the mother died, and she was
taken by one of the administrator of her father's estate, James Guest
to his home, and she there resided until her marriage with the
exception of eight months spent in attending school in Iowa City. Mr
and Mrs. Hays have been the parents of eleven children : Mary wife of
George W Spitznogle a resident of Jefferson Township; Miranda, wife of
Nathan McChesney, of Harrison County, Missouri; Johan O., at home;
Lourie who died at the age of five years; William P., who died in
infancy; Joseph M. and Amanda C. (twins) yet residing with their
parents; Edward O., also at home; William O., who died in infancy;
Hiram F., still an inmate of the parental home, and Elias N., who died
in childhood. Politically, Mr. Hays is a Republican. He is the owner
of 290 acres of land, and is one of the leading and progressive
farmers of Jefferson Township. He is well know and universally
respected throughout Louisa County, where he has resided for over
forty years.
