| Notes |
- John was the Deacon of the Congregational Church. On his gravestone in the Westchester Society is the following inscription: "DEATH REIGNS. This stone stands to memorialize the death and burial of the aged, humane and pious Deacon John Day, who in the 80th year of his age and on August 25, 1780 quitted this mortal and entered on the immortal state. An honest man (rare to be found), Lies buried deep within this ground, Whose soul to God has winged her flight, And dwells in everlasting light."
The headstones are in the cemetery road cemetery outside Colchester.
