2. Robert Day was born in 1604; died between 20 May 1648 and 14 Oct 1648 in Hartford, Hartford, Connecticut. Notes:
Arrived in 1634 on the Elizabeth. First in Cambridge, then Hartford by 1639. His name is on the Founders Monument in downtown Hartford. He was among the "Adventurers Party", led by John Steel, that scouted the future site of Hartford in October 1635, prior to the departure from Cambridge of the Rev. Hooker's party in May 1636.
He was clearly a close friend of Nathaniel Ely, whose son Samuel married his daughter Mary. They were made freemen of the Bay Colony on the same day, 6 May 1635; they removed to Hartford together, both as members of the Rev. Hooker's party; and in Hartford their lots adjoined. Ely only left Hartford for Norwalk after Day's death in 1648. As Day is known to have arrived on the Elizabeth in 1634, it seems plausible that Ely might have as well. John Insley Coddington ("Nathaniel1 Ely", citation details below) points out that most of the passengers on the Elizabeth were from Suffolk, and that according to Suffolk musters rolls from 1638, there was only one Suffolk parish, Bildeston, in which both Days and Elys lived.Robert married Editha Stebbing before 1637. Editha (daughter of William Stebbing) was born between 1610 and 1617 in Burrow-on-the-Hill, Leicestershire, England; died on 25 Oct 1688 in Springfield, Hampden, Massachusetts.
