Histories of the Martin, Wilson, Bloom, & Ahola Families
Amidon (Amadowne), Ebenezer[1]
1650 --
Name Amidon (Amadowne), Ebenezer Birth 1639 - 1650 - No birth or death record known, but he could have been born overseas. Ebenezer had to be old enough to donate in support of King Philip's War. He was named as Roger's eldest son in the probate of Roger's estate, but not as the eldest child. He would have been about 34 years old at the time of his father's death, if he was born in 1639. He is placed as the eldest child merely because Best placed him there. [2]
