Is there any one on the list interested in figuring the Days out??
I would really like some help if there is. If there is anyone close enough
to visit the courthouse and see what is in the two early probates it may
help to divide who belongs to who. Both Probates are in Box 3 # 66 is for
Charles Day and # 88 is for Benjamin.
George W. Day is also in Madison County 1820 as he was appointed to be fence
viewer for ridge Prairie township.
Also a Ralph P. Day was appointed road supervisor for the northwest corner
of Madison County.

Below are the census readings for the "Day" families minus the 1830.
Does anyone have that?

Using the two census readings below we can safely assume that Edward Day was
the father
of at least six sons. Anyone have will or probate information on Edward or
William??
