• Notes

  Ebenezer joined the Revolutionary War shortly after the battles at Lexington and Concord. He enlisted as a Private in Benjaman Mann's Company of Col. James Reed's Regiment (3rd NH) on April 23, 1775. Ebenezer Blood was taken prisoner at the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775, and never returned home. The New Hampshire legislative House voted (sometime between 12/17/1777 - 1/3/1778) to pay his father (Ebenezer Blood) L4.16, in full for his sons clothes lost there. His name is listed among the dead of the battle on the placques at Bunker Hill in Charlestown, as well as a gravestone in Mason.
