Timothy Hay (1833–1907) and his wife Sarah (1824 –1906) are buried in the Arkona Cemetery. It is reported that their son, a man with a reputation for meanness, moved to Manitoba before 1900 and may have been the subject of a fictional 1925 novel by Martha Ostenso entitled Wild Geese. This novel chronicled the life of a tyrannical Manitoba farmer called Caleb Gare, whose character resembled that of the Hay’s son.
