Jacob Wesley Day was born Sept. 21, 1852, in Indiana. He lived there until he was two years of age when the family moved to Iowa where he grew up to young manhood. At the age of 19 he went to Kansas with his people. Three years later he went back to Iowa, where he was married to Henrietta Richmond on Oct. 6, 1873, after which he took his bride and returned to Kansas where they pioneered for several years. In the spring of 1801 (I believe this is a typo since he wasn't born until 1852) they left Kansas in a covered wagon and emigrated across the plains to Washington, in the fall of the same year they arrived in Goldendale, locating just east of town. Two years later bought a place 3 miles northeast of Goldendale on the Little Klickitat river where they made their home for about twenty-two years. On the account of failing health he sold his place in the year 1915 and moved to Goldendale where they resided about 4 years, having to move again on account of ill health they went to the Willamette Valley locating in Stayton, Oregon, making this their home until his death. In September of this year he and his wife went to Arlington, Washington, to spend part of the winter with their son John.
On November 19, he was stricken with a paralytic stroke from which he died eight days later at the age of 77 years, 2 months and 6 days. His wife, two daughters, Mrs. J.H. Chapman and Mrs. L.H. Wright, and his son John, were at his bedside when he passed away on November 27, 1928.
At twenty-four years of age he was converted and continued to live a Christian life.
He leaves to mourn his loss his widow, five daughters and three sons, who are: Mrs. Frank Fenton, Goldendale, Wash.; Mrs. L.S. Hines, Condon, Ore.; Mrs. J.H. Chapman, Wasco, Ore.; J.J. Day, Arlington, Wash.; A.E. Day, Redmond, Ore.; Mrs. Roy Brown, Klickitat, Wash.; Mrs. L.H. Wright and Floyd Day, Stayton, Oregon. Twenty-seven grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, besides a host of friends (where ever he went for anyone who knew Mr. Day, loved him), survive him.
The body was shipped to Stayton, where he was buried on Sunday, December 2nd.
