Records & Research

Daniel B. Bills was born 3 June 1822, the son of Chester Bills (1791-1845) and Mary Day (1790-1852), per the 2006 family report. Despite searching FindAGrave, FamilySearch, WikiTree, Geni, and compiled Bill/Bills genealogies, no public record could be matched to this specific person on multiple anchors. No confirming death, burial, marriage, census, or family-tree record was located, so nothing beyond the report facts can be established. Audit note: the precise 1822-06-03 birth date and the named parents originate solely from the family report, not from any independent online source. All same-name online candidates were independently confirmed to be correctly rejected (each conflicts with the 1822 birth year and/or the Chester Bills + Mary Day parentage). A direct re-fetch of the dav4is 'Bill Families' compiled genealogy confirmed it contains no Chester Bills, no Daniel Bills b. 1822, and no Mary Day.

No additional public records have been confirmed yet — only what the family report records.

Open questions (7)
  • No public record (FindAGrave, FamilySearch tree, WikiTree, Geni, or compiled Bill/Bills genealogy) was found linking a Daniel B. Bills born 1822 to parents Chester Bills (1791-1845) and Mary Day (1790-1852). The family's residence/state of origin is unknown, which prevented narrowing same-name candidates.
  • FindAGrave returned NO memorial for Chester Bills with the report's 1791-1845 dates, and no Daniel B. Bills b. 1822 memorial matching these parents. The father's lineage could not be anchored online.
  • Several same-name candidates were found but REJECTED as different people: Daniel Bills (1740-1829, WikiTree Bills-207, NC/TN), Daniel Bills (1782-1843, FamilySearch LZCR-YSV), Daniel Bills (1783-1848, FindAGrave 154318127, son of Daniel & Deborah Denman Bills), and Daniel Baxter Bills (1797-1866, Geni) -- none match the 1822 birth year/date or the parents Chester Bills + Mary Day. These rejections are sound; each conflicts on the birth-year anchor and the parentage anchor.
  • A FamilySearch Mary Bills (b. 1815, 9H6M-749) was checked as a possible sibling but belongs to a DIFFERENT family (parents Thomas Bills 1777-1862 and Debra Ann Johnson 1778-1861); not connected to Chester Bills / Mary Day.
  • Whether 'Bills' is the correct surname spelling (vs. Bill/Biles/Byles) for this family is unverified online; the compiled 'Bill Families' rootsweb/dav4is genealogy was re-fetched during this audit and confirmed to contain no Chester and no Daniel b. 1822.
  • Daniel's death date, burial place, spouse(s), and children remain entirely unknown -- the report itself lists none.
  • AUDIT NOTE: FamilySearch tree search endpoints require an authenticated session and could not be queried programmatically; the FamilySearch person pages cited above were reachable but no Chester Bills / Daniel b.1822 family could be surfaced. The 1822-06-03 birth date and parentage rest entirely on the unverified 2006 family report.
