I'm researching my wifes side of the family which is the "DAY" family and have got back to her 3rd Great Grandfather a John Day who was born ? in 1788 c in Hertford,Hertfordshire,England.
His father was also named John and according to john jnr death cert his father john was a naval officer and could of fought at Trafalgar ?no mention of his mothers name on Certificate.
John jnr was found guilty of larceny in 1813, he spent 2 years in the hulks and in 1815 was sent to the colonies for 7 years, the ship he was on was called the " BARING".
I would like to find out who John jnr mother was, i believe it could be a Alice Wray but not 100% sure as their was a John Day & Alice Wray who were married at St Andrews parish Hertford,Hertfordshire on the 5th September 1788 the same day John jnr was born ? or maybe Baptised/Christened ? at st andrews as well.
Regards,
Lionel.
