Ebenezer was born on 23 February, 1739/40. There is a small discrepency with Ebenezer's birth date (though not the year) as being 7 December instead, and the HGR speculates that perhaps the alternate recorded date was a baptism.

Ebenezer removed to Sedgwick in about 1765. (The town of Sedgwick was incorporated in 1789.)

He passed away in 1821. [18] [19]
