From Bartlett’s article “Hugh Jones of Salem”:387
    “Capt. Ebenezer^3 Jones, born in Woburn, June 18, 1699, lived in his native town, and also Wilmington, acquiring exteensive estates in both places, and at one time maintaining a tavern in the latter town. (Middlesex Co. Court of Sessions, Apr. 8, 1746.) He was an enterprising and prominent man, but gained his chief distinction in the military service, the traditions among his descendants, of his prowess in the Indian Wars, being confirmed by the military records. He served as Lieut. in Capt. Joseph Richardson’s company, in the Spring of 1755 and as captain from Sept. 9, 1755, to Jan. 3, 1756, on the first expedition against Crown Point. (Mass. Archives, vol. xciii, p. 236, and vol. xciv, p. 84.) On Mar. 13, 1758, he was appointed captain of a company on another expedition against Crown Point, and while scouting near Fort Edward, on July 20, his company was ambushed by the Indians at Half-Way Brook, and he and many of his men were killed. (Mass. Archives, vol. xcviii, p. 208; also Register, ante, vol. x, p. 308.) His will, dated May 20, 1758, probated Mar. 12, 1759, names wife Phebe, sons Ebenezer and Jacob, daughters Elizabeth, Phebe, and Joanna, and children of daughter Abigail, deceased, formerly wife of William Thompson.
