Apologies for asking a question which may not be relevant to your quest.
I have traced my family back to 1806 Redmile, leicestershire, where my g g g garndfather was a thomas pickard, the trouble is my surname is day, the pickards adopted the name day for some reason between 1806 and 1840 ish, it has remained at the name day ever since. Any idea if any of your relatives adopted the name day?
