Biography
Nathaniel Hayward was born in Easton, Massachusetts on January 19, 1808.
Hayward met Goodyear in 1837 and shared with him the discovery he had made, almost accidentally, while working at a rubber factory in Roxbury, Connecticut. He bought some mills in Stoneham, Massachusetts, from Elisha S. Converse, which later became a small settlement called Haywardville.
He died in Colchester, Connecticut on July 18, 1865.
Hayward's former home in Colchester has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1972.
