  • Notes 
    • Calvin and Catharine were from Hartford, CT.

      An account of the public funeral services for Major Calvin Day appeared in the Hartford Courant of June 14th, 1884. The services took place at the Center Church at 3 o'clock yesterday June 13th, and were attended by a great number of personal friends, including a large part of the prominent business men of the city. Among those from out of town were Nathan Day and family of New York. Horatio E. Day and family of New York. Moses Pierce of Norwich, and the Rev. Dr. Buckingham of Springfield. The American Asylum, of which Mr. Day was president, the Hartford Fire Insurance company, the Hartford Bank and the Gas company were present by their boards of directors. There was a delegation from the active company of the Governor's Foot Guards and another from the veteran organization, and the body of the church was nearly filled by those who came as individuals to do honor to the memory of a man, whom all knew and esteemed. The pupils of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum occupied portions of the two galleries. The family and relatives were seated at the left of the center aisle and the pall-bearers at the right.
      Those latter were: Gordon W. Burnham of New York, Major Roland Mather, the Hon. W.R. Cone, George Sexton, the Hon. F.B. Cooley and Judge Nathaniel Shipman. [5]
