Name: Sarah Elizabeth DAY 1 2
Sex: F
ALIA: Betty /Day/
Birth: 19 JUN 1856 in Tennessee, USA 3 4 5
Death: 19 JUN 1943 6
Note:
Attachment of Sarah Elizabeth "Betty" Day as a child of Isabel Day is not proven, but based on the following from excerpt from letter by Bridget Day dated April 12, 1999: "John Smith Lynch m. Sarah Elizabeth "Betty" Day (June 19, 1856-June 19, 1943). John & Betty were my great grandparents. Betty was a niece to Sarah Day Fortner (Dec 14, 1839-Apr 20, 1924). This information doesn't fit the 1850 census as Sarah being 6 yrs. old at that time. I do think her father was Noah Day. According to her death certificate her father was Noah Day. She was my great grandmother also. According to stories passed down over time, Betty Day's mother was never married. Sarah Fortner, her (Betty's) aunt, raised Betty. Evidently Betty's mother died as a young woman, left the country, or somehow was unable to care for Betty and her sister."
Also one Internet site shows Isabel Day married William Washington Killion.
On the 1860 census, Claiborne Cty. Tenn., household 1431, are Isabell Day age 25, Mary Day age 23, John T. Day age 20, Jackson Day age 16, and Elizabeth Day age 4. The Elizabeth Day age 4 would be Sarah Elizabeth Day. It is also possibly that Sarah Elizabeth Day's mother was Mary Day who married Isaac Nicholas Ford in 1863. Isaac already had 5 childred for Mary to take care of, so her sister Sarah Fortner may have taken Sarah Elizabeth into her home.
Per 1900 census, Sarah had 9 children with 7 living in 1900.
Per the 1910 census, Sarah had 9 children with 7 living in 1910.

Same question as above info

Name: Sarah Jane DAY 1
Sex: F
Birth: BET. 14 DEC 1839 - MAY 1844 in Tennessee, USA 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Death: 20 APR 1924 10
Note:
1850 Claiborne County, Tenn. census shows Sarah J. Day, daughter of Noah Day, as 6 years old indicating birth in 1844. Per Bridget Day, Sarah Jane Day was born December 14, 1839 and was the daughter of Noah Day per her death certificate. 1840 Claiborne County, Tenn. census for Noah Day lists 3 children; 1 male age under 5 which would be John T. born about 1839 per the 1850 census; 1 female age under 5 which would be Mary born about 1837 per the 1850 census; and 1 female age 5 under 10 which would have been Isabel born about 1835 per the 1850 census. 1860 Claiborne County census, household 1430 shows Sarah age as 18. 1870 Census Dist 12-56/47 shows Sarah age age 26. Appears that Sarah Jane was born after 1840 and death certificate could be incorrect. 1870 Claiborne Cty., Tenn census shows Sarah Fortner's age as 26, born about 1844. 1900 Census shows Sarah as age 56, born May 1844; she is living with her son Isaac B. Fortner.
In 1910, Sarah is still living with her son Isaac B. Fortner, she is age 65, has given birth to 9 children with 8 living in 1910.
In 1920, Sarah is still living with her son Isaac B. Fortner, she is age 70 (apparently low).
Two records show name as Sarah Elizabeth instead of Sarah Jane, most show Sarah J. or just Sarah.
