Biography

Parentage

Zebulon Howland may have been tied to the baptism record in Pembroke, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. It says he was baptized on 6 May 1759 in Pembroke, Massachusetts, and was the son of Zebulon Howland and Lydia Cushing.

Zebulon Howland was not recorded in the book of the author, Franklyn Howland, in 1885. Franklyn did not come to write any further biography on Zebulon or his father, Zebulon, in his book on page 86, but he added Zebulon's father, Zebulon, in the appendix in his book on page 427, but he did not list Zebulon as the son of Zebulon Howland.
