Ebenezer of Fairfield (a minor son) chose George Kilbourn guardian, 1/4/1713-4, but the Court appointed Michael Griswold of Wethersfield, the boy being 18 years old. Grace Kilbourn (Michael Griswold surety) was appointed guardian, 1/4/1713/4 to Josiah (aged 12), Daniel (9), George (1J4), Margaret (7), and Sarah (4). Distribution ordered to widow Grace; eldest son Ebenezer; and to Eleazer, Josiah, Daniel, George, Grace, Margaret, and Sarah. Eleazer was appointed 11/7/1727 guardian to his brother George (aged 15). A year later, George asked to have Eleazer removed and chose Samuel Hunn of Wethersfield as guardian. Grace Kilbourn, widow of Ebenezer, petitioned to have her dower set out, 3/4/1736-7. The daughter Grace was wife of Benjamin Goodrich in 1731. Ebenezer was Lister of Wethersfield 1694, Constable 1706 & 1707, a Grand Juror of Hartford County 1703 & 1705.
