Biography
Ebenezer was born in 1713. Ebenezer Shaw ... He passed away in 1782. [1] This profile is a collaborative work-in-progress. Can you contribute information or sources?
Ebenezer married Anna Philbrick, daughter of Thomas and Abiah Philbrick. He moved to Standish, ME. [2]
"The area [Standish, ME] was granted in 1750 to Captains Humphrey Hobbs and Moses Pearson and their companies for services in the siege of Louisburg. Settlement did not begin until 1760. The location on what was essentially the frontier during the French and Indian Wars prevented any sustained settlement until hostilities ceased. By the mid to late 1760s, Standish (then known as Pearsontown) was beginning to have an influx of settlers. One was Ebenezer Shaw of Hampton, New Hampshire who was enticed by the proprietors to built a sawmill in 1762. Several years later, the proprietors fulfilled their obligation to build a Congregational meeting house and settle a minister. "[3]
