My ancestor is Francis Jane Day, born 04 October 1836 in Person County, North Carolina, and died 14 January 1860. She is buried at the “Deep Creek" John Bumpass Sr. Cemetery, located at Old Allensville Road at Ruff Davis Road. Her stone is located near the back of the periwinkle area. This is exact wording on her stone is, “Frances / wife of / Francis M Bumpass / Born Oct 4, 1836 / Died Jan 14, 1860 / Age 23 years 3 months”. In 1850 she is found in Caswell County living with Zack and Martha Dameron and their one year old child, Mary Elizabeth. She married Francis M. Bumpass on 15 November 1855, noted on the marriage entry was a John B. Day listed as a Bondsman (unknown relationship to Francis Jane Day or to Francis M. Bumpass). Francis M. Bumpass was born in 1830 in Person County and died in 1862 also in Person County (exact dates of death and burial unknown). From this union they had one child, John Francis Bumpass, born 1857 in Person County and died on 04 September 1914 in Durham County. The 1860 Census has Francis M. Bumpass and his son John living with his mother Nancy Roundtree (Day) Bumpass in Allensville, Person County. I am searching for Francis Jane Day’s parents and her relationship to her husband’s mother Nancy “Roundtree” Day. Was Nancy Native American? Any help will do. Thank you in advance. Will Millard
