General Notes: Husband - Eleazer Hill Day


He was born on the old homestead in New York state. He was educated and grew to manhood in his native state, removing to Youngsville, Warren County, Pennsylvania, upon attaining his majority. He learned the trade of shoemaker, which line of work he followed, in connection with farming and merchandising, throughout the active years of his life. He was the owner of a farm in Brokenstraw township, Warren County, consisting of two hundred and fifty acres, which he purchased about the year 1858. In 1861, at the breaking out of the civil war, he was engaged in mercantile business, in which he was highly successful. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, devoted considerable time to the study of the Scripture, and in politics was a staunch Republican, serving in various township offices. He took a keen interest in educational affairs, and was an active factor in the erection of the public school, which was built on his farm.
