Info on Jefferson Hayes

[raleav14]

I was wondering if anyone could find more info on my great-great grandfather, Jefferson Hayes from Stoneham Massachusetts. I was told he lost an arm during the war, but have no proof of it. I know he lived from 1832 to 1905. He was also the postmaster of Stoneham Mass, after the war. I know people here have access to records that I probably haven't seen, so I'd love to see anything. I recently was put in touch with a relative who has his diaries and letters that he wrote home to his mom, but it will probably be a while before I see copies of those. So anything I can see now would be great. Thanks for looking. I'm enclosing one of the few pictures we have of him. (does his left arm look fake? To me it does) Supposedly , he's also related to President Rutheford B. Hayes( we were told they share a common ancestor)
