    • 188c Ebenezer Webster, b. Hampton Falls, Oct. 22, 1749.

      CAPT. EBENEZER WEBSTER, born in Hampton Falls, N.H. Oct. 22, 1749, died in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, Oct. 9, 1833, married 1st WESCOTT, died in Deer Isle, Maine, before 1794, daughter of William of Falmouth, Maine; married 2nd in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, Dec. 7, 1794, DEBORAH ELDER.

      Capt. Webster and his first wife, ---- (Westcott) had nine children as residents of Deer Isle near what is now called Sunset. His first wife was a sister to Mercy Westcott who married Job Small on Feb. 23, 1764. Ebenezer settled on Deer Isle perhaps thru the influence of Job and Mercy who came to Deer Isle before he did. His second wife, Deborah, was a daughter of Robert Elder, Jr., of Falmouth and Alice Westcoat of York, Maine. From early documents, it is indicated that he settled Deer Isle in 1767. He sold his Deer Isle interests March 28, 1796 to Job Small, Jr. for $700.

      The Revolutionary War records at the City Hall in Portland, Maine described Ebenezer's grave as being located in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery, Cottage Road and Pine Street, Cape Elizabeth, Maine. His marker is a tall, thin slate stone located on the Elder family lot.
