Hi Nancy,
I don't have them, really, but they are a couple that I thought might be a
likely prospect for eventual ancestors. So I researched a little...here's
what I found.
Ebenezer Sr. was born in Middleborough in 1732, d. on July 19, 1806.
Ebenezer Sr. married Zibia White on 20 October 1755, This is documented in a
"private record, from the marriage records of three Justices of the Peace,
James Williams, his son Brig. Gen. James Williams, and his son Alfred
Williams, 1737 to 1837, in the possession of the Old Colony Historical
Society of Taunton." Zibia White was born on 10 June 1735 in Middleborough
and died on 7 June 1804.
Ebenezer Jr. was born to them on Nov. 30, 1763 in Taunton and died on Apr.
20, 1836. He was married to Anna (King-I think, I can't find the record for
this, would have to go looking again). They were married on October 14, 1792.
Listed children are:
Ebenezer Caswell Mar. 1, 1793
Samuel K. Caswell 4 April 1795
Lois Caswell 14 February 1798
Francis Caswell 31 May 1800
Julia Caswell either 22 January 1804
or 5 October 1806.
I'm still looking for ancestors of Elijah Caswell (who married Eunice Hall).
He isn't listed here at all. It was just wishful thinking on my part. Hope
some of this helps.
