Hi,
I am looking for a connection to link my Gr Grandfather to the Day or Brown
or Caudill familyies of Letcher County, Kentucky
The John Day family
the 1860 Census of Letcher County. The Census looked like this:
#550 John P. Day 44, Farmer
Ester 23
Ferby 3/12
Wesley Cooper, 11 all born in Kentucky
The information that I have obtained since then puts John Day's middle name
as Lloyd not P.
John Lloyd Day was born April 1816 in Knox County, Ky. He married Ferbia
Yearly abt. 1839. He married Easter Brown abt 1855
One child with Ferbia Yearly was William Day born 1840 KY
He had 9 children with Easter Brown,
Henry Day b. Aug. 1856 d. 1943 Letcher County
Pherby Day b. April 14, 1860, d. May 15, 1899
John Q. Day b. May 1862 d. 1937 Letcher County
Betty Jane Day B 1865
Sarah L. Day B. Jan. 1864, d, 1935
Martha Day B 1868
Mary Day B, 1871
Susannah Day b. 1874
Joseph e. Day b Feb. 1878
Ester (Easter) Brown was born abt 1839. She was the daughter of John Q. and
Elizabeth (Caudill) Brown.
John Day was the son of William and Jane Day.
I have also found him in the 1850 Census of Perry County:
