I wonder if Chapman Hayles/Hales (c. 1759-1836) was the father of Culia Hayles (c.1790/94-1840s) who married Kindred O'Neal (c.1785-1855) in Johnston Co. in 1810. They moved to Anson Co., NC by the time of the 1850 census.

In some posts I've seen it stated that Chapman's mother was named Milly Barrow. Kindred O'Neal and Culia Hayles named their first born daughter Millie.

Kindred & Culia had elevan children: Millie O'Neal (10 Jan. 1812-7 Jan. 1889, m. .A. Nelson Caddell), Zillah "Zillie" O'Neal (17 Nov. 1812-17 July 1882, m. Hugh A. Beachum, my line), Lucinda "Lucy" O'Neal (c.1814-9 Jan. 1851, m. Alexander Kiker), Spear O'Neal (c.1816-c.1851, m. Nancy ?), Phereba O'Neal (1818-16 April 1888, m. Isaiah S. Beachum, Hugh's brother), unknown daughter (born 1821/25, perhaps Zina O'Neal), Elizabeth/Eliza O'Neal (c.1824, m. John Gregory or McGregor), Mary O'Neal (1826-1905, m. Wiley Bowers), Nancy Ellen O'Neal (c.1828/30-1885, m. James Alexander Beachum, likely a nephew of Hugh & Isaiah), Martin S. O'Neal (c. 1830/1-27 Nov. 1850), unknown daughter (b. 1831/5, probably Lina O'Neal who married John Dunahoe).

I hope somebody might be able to give me some information about the Hales/Hayles family of Johnston Co.
