Life and Times of Thomas Day
Life and Times of Thomas DayThomas Day is one of the major themes of the Liberian Declaration of Independence and represents a departure from the more conservative ways in which the country was founded. He is the first Christian born in a free nation with a slave. Thomas and his wife first became slaves when one of his slaves suffered an attack on his own house and that man was found dead. In response, Thomas began to work for the American and African National Congress and was elected president of the Liberian Free State in 1935. The Liberian government also accepted him as its elected president and began its civil service in 1938. The next three years saw the emergence of the American Civil War, the rise of the Nazi and American Communists and the rise of radical left social movements, including the New Left, which included the Patriot Workers’ Party, Liberty Front, and National Socialist Youth League. The Liberian government established a national bank to help support these groups and Thomas wrote a series of articles as treasurer, the first public servant paid out of that bank in four years. After the American Civil War, Thomas took the liberty of Liberia to escape the Nazi occupation and was allowed to settle in the western city of Monrovia and the westernmost city is the capital of the Democratic Republic in the east. Thomas Day was born on January 24th, 1848 at the farm of a prosperous farmer in Galeria, about 30 miles south of Mombasa. He was one of two boys born in Monrovia.

Thomas’s father was a local banker and his mother an agricultural engineer, all of whom worked in the small Westminister textile plant.

Thomas moved to Milton, NC in 1823 and started a furniture business where he became one of the best furniture makers of that time. He received notice from two of North Carolinas governors and his furniture is inside of University of North Carolina in Chapel Hills original buildings. He eventually began to train free blacks and enslaved blacks to do the carpentry work that he was doing. By the mid 1800s his work was in demand from Virginia to Georgia. He then had to begin purchasing slaves to help him to the work. His furniture shop became the biggest shop in the state because he used steam powered machines and using mass production techniques to build his furniture.
In 1827 Thomas married a free woman from North Carolina. But the law was that free slaves could only marry people from their own state. So Thomas threatened to move his furniture shop outside of North Carolina and to move it to Virginia where that law did not exist. So the North Carolina Legislature made special arrangements to the law so that Thomas would stay in North Carolina and he and his wife could still be married. Thomas had three children and they were educated in an abolitionist-sympathizing school in Massachusetts called Wesleyan Academy.
He also constructed some pews for The Presbyterian Church in Milton provided that his family would be allowed to sit up front in the white section. He was an active member of the community of Milton. In 1848 he purchased the Union Tavern where he resided until he died in 1861. It is now a landmark but part of it was destroyed by a fire in 1989. It is being reconstructed now.
