Biography
I did most my family research in the 1990's, at the NJ State Archives, Church of Latter Day Saints, and I had work done at the Paterson Library as well as Lambert's Castle, Paterson, N.J. At the NJ State Archives, I met a genealogist, Betty Barker, who worked there. She knew a great deal about the Day family history. She believed we were on the 'poor' side of the family! There was a family split in two and records from the poor side are scarce due to poor families having no bibles (where people wrote down family events) or time to keep records while the wealthy families owned a Bible and kept records.

]]DAY]] English: occupational name from Middle English day(e), dey(e) ‘dairyman or dairymaid’. Originally used only of women, it was later used of men with the sense ‘man in charge of the dairy cattle’. This is probably the most common source of the surname.
English: from the Middle English personal name Day(e) or Dey. In western England this is probably a pet form of David , but in northern England and perhaps elsewhere also it is a late Middle English variant of Daw, a pet form of Ralph (see Daw , Dakin ).
Irish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Deaghaidh (see O'Dea ). Related names: Daye, Dee
