    Death: Jun. 8, 1737, Gloucester, Essex County, Massachusetts, USA

    Note: a. 45 y. [Note: Age 45 is from death record; gravestone say 48th year of his age, which is not consistent with his date of birth]
    Parents: Ezekiel Day (1662 - 1725), Mary Rowe Day (1674 - 1741)
    Spouse: Elizabeth Littlehale Day (1694 - ____) [Note: lacks death and burial information, presumably because it lacks information about her remarriage]
    Children: Ezekiel Day (1716 - 1735)
    Sibling: Ezekiel Day (1692 - 1737), Samuel Day (1706 - 1758)

  5. 5.0 5.1 Ezekiel's will is dated 8 June 1737. The will is handwritten and the date is clear. His gravestone, clearly the original and still quite readable at the time it was photographed for Find A Grave, is still quite readable, and gives his date of death as 8 June 1737. The death record, which gives his date of death as 4 June, is from a transcription. Most likely the transcription is in error and an 8 was misread as a 4.
