Oliver Mary Oliver Saunders P. Day From the 1884 Audrain Co. History book: About the year 1832, the few families that had located in what is now the southern part of Audrain county and the northern portion of Callaway county, concluded to build a school house. Matthew Scott, Temple Wayne, Thomas Boyd, Mrs. Jane Gregg, Ackley Day and Lewis Day were the parties who led off in this important enterprise, and by their united efforts a house of small round logs was constructed on the north-east corner of section 35, 2 township 50, range 9. It was covered with four-foot clapboards, and had a dirt floor. Linn logs, split open and hewn on one side, made the seats, and a piece hewn and laid on stout wooden pins or pegs, driven into augur-holes bored into one of the logs, constituted the writing bench. The teacher employed was Archibald Gregg. This was the first school taught within the present limits of Audrain county. The teacher was fond of his gun and dog. One day at noon (having his gun at the school-house), he went into the woods and killed a wild-cat. It was a great curiosity to the pupils. Also, from the same book: The next term of the court commenced March 20, 1837, all the judges being present. Ackley Day was appointed commissioner to lay off the town of New Mexico, and dispose of the lots. On the 5th day of November, 1837, the commissioner for the sale of lots presented his sale-book of the same. The record in reference thereto is as follows : - This day, Ackley Day, town and county commissioner, presented his sale book of town lots, which was examined by the court and or-dered to be recorded. 1844 State Census Callaway Co MO Ashely Day 22121-00001 2M slaves 2F slaves #28 Auxvasse Twp 1M -10 Charles A. age 6 1M -10 Francis M. age 10 1M 10-17 Peter age 12 1M 10-17 William A. age 16 1M 18-20 James age 19 1M 21-45 Truman age 26 1M 21-45 Levi O. age 23 1M 45+ Ackley age 51 1F 45+ Sarah Oxley age 46 1850 United States Federal Census about A Day Name: A Day [Ackley Day] Age: 57 Estimated birth year: abt 1793 Birth Place: Kentucky Gender: Male Home in 1850 (City,County,State): District 12, Callaway, Missouri 1850 census Day A 57 M 301B Farmer KY Day Sally 52 F KY Day William 20 M KY Day Peter M 18 M MO Day Frances M 16 M MO Day Charles A 12 MO Source Citation: Year: 1850; Census Place: District 12, Callaway, Missouri; Roll: M432_393; Page: 301; Image: 599. 1851-September 15 Callaway Co MO: On motion of Levi O.
