    [Note: the identification of his wife cites "Fletcher Genealogy" and p. 57 gives the marriage date of 5 May 1758. Not sure what Fletcher Genealogy this is, but Source:Fletcher, Edward H. Fletcher Family History : The Descendants of Robert Fletcher of Concord, Mass, p. 102, identifies the wife as Susannah, m. 1763. Elizabeth b. 1764 is the first child, which would be odd for a 1758 marriage, and Elizabeth's birth record clearly gives her mother's name as Susannah and no record of a 1758 marriage is found. There is a death record in Tyngsborough for Susanna, "w. Col. Ebenezer" in 1823. So Hannah appears to be an error. Further note: there is some disagreement over the identity of the husband.
