Hiram was born 1799/1800 in either Va/Ky. He was married in Floyd Co., KY to
Lydia LOGAN, d/o James and Caroline Hughes Logan.
1830 they lived in Morgan Co., KY with 4 children......3 boys and a girl.
Two of the children were; Travis Benjamin, b 1827 and Ann D. b ca 1825. In
the late 1830's, Hiram received two Kentucky Land Warrants for land in Lewis
and Greenup Co's.
1840's; they are not found in any county census, but did own and sell land
in Carter Co.
1850-54; This family is listed in the 1850 census for Lewis Co., Ky., with
the following information:

Mary Ann (Polly) married Joseph D. Ford and had a daughter, Lydia Margaret, b 1854
Joseph married Mary Mann in 1857, so Polly must have died
Daniel Dillon Day married Harriett Elizabeth Setters in 1860 Lewis Co and ended up in Illinois
In 1854, a law suit in which Hiram went bail for a William Day (probably another son) and
where Ann, Elizabeth and Polly testified at the trial
1854; William Day married Sarah Patton and Hiram signed the marriage bond
1860-GONE ----- Can find no trace of this family
Who were his parents? Where was he born? Who were his siblings? Where did they die?
I'm reasonably sure that he isn't in the 'witness' protection program and also that he does have
parents.....somewhere
