EBENEZER ABBE, son of Samuel and Mary (Knowlton) Abbe, born July 31, 1683, in Salem Village, Mass., baptized in Wenham before 1685; died in Windham, Conn., December 5, 1758. He removed with his father to the locality known as ''Bricktop" in 1698; worked in Norwich for a time, about 1705; was at Windham in 1706 and later lived at North Windham and Mansfield.

November, 1705, were recorded two deeds showing an exchange of property between Samuel Abbe and Ebenezer of Norwich, a lot upon Bushnell's Plain. He received a deed from Samuel, July 17, 1707, and sold land to Abraham Mitchell and William Slate in 1709 and 1711. October 29, 1713, John Abbe, "now resident at Hartford, in Hartford County," sold to his brother Ebenezer land he had received from his father, Samuel Abbe of Windham.

In a deed of November 2, 1713, he alludes to his deceased father, Samuel Abbe, 32 Abbe-Abbey Genealogy.

January 11, 1714, land bought from his brother, Samuel Abbe, and calls Abraham Mitchell "father." He is found frequently in the records of Windham down to late in life. September 8, 1742, he sold to his son, Samuel, land on the east side of Nanchang River in Windham. In 1715, Ebenezer Abbe was one of the settlers who formed Canada Parish at Hampton Hill in the northeast part of Windham, and was one of those who on May 9, 1717, signed a petition to the General Assembly asking to be made a separate parish. In October of the same year another petition was sent to the Assembly, asking that the taxes on property in this parish should be used for the establishing of their church.

This petition was signed by ''Ebenezer Abbe, for the rest," and William Durkee.

His will, dated June 3, 1750, probated December 14, 1758, names these heirs:

wife Mary; children Ebenezer, Joshua, Nathan, Gideon, Samuel, Elizabeth Cross, Zeruiah Marsh, Jerusha Wood, Abigail Cary, Miriam Cross; grandson Jonathan Bingham, only surviving son and heir of his daughter Mary, deceased.

(Windham Probate Records, Vol. 5, page 513.) Ebenezer Abbe married at Mansfield, October 28, 1707, MARY ALLEN, who
