Day Family History from Paterson, New Jersey

The Day Family and Families that married into it from Paterson, New Jersey and the surrounding area.

If you are here searching for connections in New Jersey to the DAY family of Paterson, NJ, USA and the surrounding area this site could be helpful to you. This site is not perfect, there are no photos for one and as for accuracy of the family lines they are many times ambiguous. For instead, George Day 1640-married to Mary Riggs has a a couple of "ideas" on who his parents were. This is mainly due to the lack of accurate documentation. On some sites George's parents are listed as John Day 1590 and Margery Crowley. On other sites and Nicholas Day 1618–1680 and Elizabeth Scott are named. So be aware of this fact.
