After he was married he settled on the homestead in Barrington, RI.

The information below and Ebenezer's Will I  typed as it is written. This information is from a typed written paper that was found from the 1930's and submitted to me by Judy Needham , a descendant of Ebenezer (see page of John, his dad). "His father, John,  deeded his house to Ebenezer April 11, 1707.  His father, John, also built a house near Barrington Bridge, which is still standing , and was left to Ebenezer after Joanna Martin died. In 1744, Ebenezer's sons Ebenezer and Nathaniel quit claimed  to their brother John :all the part of the homestead and farm which was our honored grandfather Martin's." I t remained in the possession of John's descendants until 1864 when it was purchased by Mr. Bowden who sold it to Mrs. Talman its present Owner. It is a large two storied shingled structure and contains fine hand carved pannelling.
