Below are some notes that I have on Parker Hays and Isaac Dykes which I hope are some help to you.

He was veteran of the War of 1812 having served in the 12th./13th. Rgmt. (consolidated) under Capt. Thomas and Wm. V. Bickham of St. Tammany Parish.

Parker Hays:

Parker HAYS born in South Carolina about 1800 was the father of John A. HAYS born 15 Feb 1822 in Mississippi. Who was John's mother? Parker HAYS' wife as listed on land documents dated 1837 in Washington Parish was Rachel DYKES. On succession records of Rachel DYKES' father (Isaac DYKES) in St. Helena Parish, there were five of Rachel's children mentioned but John was not included except as an assignee of Mary Nixon. Parker HAYS later married Eliza DAY. I think he had a first marriage to John A. HAYS' mother. Who was she?
