Surnames: DAY, ARTIS, BYRD, ASH, NEWSOME, MOURNING
I am researching African American DAYS in various OH counties. In particular I am researching the decendents of brothers Soloman DAY b. 1788 and David DAY b. 1794 who migrated from Southampton Co., VA to Stark Co., OH in 1823. Many of their decendents later located in Logan, Paulding, Montgomery, Seneca and Columbiana counties. It seems these DAYS also married into and migrated with BYRD, ARTIS, NEWSOME, MOURNING and ASH families who were free blacks that also originated in Southampton Co., VA and Northampton Co., NC.
