It meant nothing to them. In the 18th Century, gay people were all closeted. Those who were caught, were viewed as mentally ill or criminals. The founders did believe in personal freedom though.

What is the difference between Founder's Day and Founders Day?

An apostrophe. Grammatically, "Founder's Day" means "the day of the (singular) founder", while "Founders Day" ... kind of doesn't mean anything. If there was an apostrophe after the S, it would mean "the day of the (multiple) founders." As is, it might mean that, it might be a typo, it might be a day dedicated to someone named Founders, it might mean the day that, historically, something foundered.
