My father though it looked like a pennsylvania dutch colonial piece however when i opened the drawer i saw faint insignia or stamp. One of them was more legible it said Thomas Day Cabinet maker. It has hand painted birds and designs. I would love to have someone take a look at a picture but i dont know who to send it to. I live in NJ and wouldn't know who to trust. please email me back if you have the time. I have recently purchased an antique armoire, vanity and desk bedroom set.

Does anyone know who was the third child of Thomas Day the Furniture maker and his wife Aquilla Wilson of Virginia? Over the years, I’ve only located information on two of the children of Thomas Day, his son Thomas Jr. and daughter Mary Ann, but what is the name of the third child? My great great-grandfather Wilson Day born 1832, lived in Stonehouse Township in James City County, Virginia in 1870, he had a son named John Wilson Day, and he had a son named Frank Wilson Day, and he had a son named Daniel Day who was born 1915, in Hampton, Virginia, he was my father. My father was an only child; his first cousin was Paul Day. My name is Sadie Day; I was born 1952 in East Harlem, NY.
