    In the process of arguing that the illegitimate child of Kezia (Folwe) Hincher [his wife's sister] belongs to Ebenezer, this article also documents various other sensational events in this man's life, including marrying his widow's sister in 1754, his shooting into a mob and killing an 11-year old boy, getting convicted of murder, getting released, and eventually fleeing to England.
