Ezekiel [Day, son of Anthony Day and Susanna] received a grant of land to set a house upon, between Lobster Cove and Hogskin Cove, in 1694; and was one of the first settlers in that section of the town. He married Mary Rowe, Jan. 27, 1690, and died Feb 18, 1725, leaving several children. One of those (Ezekiel) died about 1737; at which date three other sons (Peletiah, Samuel, and Nathaniel) were still living. He also had a son Jonathan, who married Sarah Ingersol in 1730, and died before the birth of his second son David. The latter was a soldier in the French Wars and in the Revolutionary War; and died May 1, 1816, aged eighty-four.
