    3. Hi cousins, All this rollcall, and memories have sure been good to see ... thank you Tim for taking over the website :) I'm trying to walk down memory lane, on borrowed memories. My grandmother, Jamie Faith Day Jones, is not long of this world due to final stages of Alhezimer's. While it is sad, I am grateful for the knowledge that she will go to a better place. It was her sister, Estelle Day Gathright, that got me interested in our family back when I was 15. Jamie Faith Day was born in Farmersville, in October 1923 to James Pierce Day, Jr and Sallie Craven. She married William Clavis Jones in Strong, Union Co., Arkansas in February 1939. Jamie's grandparents were James Pierce Day, Sr. and Josephine Pilgreen on her father's side, and William Henry Craven and Joanna Poole on her mother's side. The Day's married into many of the Union Parish families. I have Doyle Day's book "Our Day Family". I'm working on getting it indexed so I can easily do lookups. If anyone would like to contribute stories they may have on the Day families of Union Parish, or the other surnames I've mentioned above, I would love to read them. I can only imagine the life my grandmother lead before marrying at the age of 16. Thanks! Lori
