EBENEZER KNIGHT,born 20 Aug 1695 of Woburn,Weston,and Lunenberg,Massachusetts. and Massachusetts Mary Johnson,born 12 Sept 1696, Woburn,Massachusetts .They lived in Weston for two or three years, and removed to Townsend in 1766, and two years later finally settling in Lunenburg,Massachusetts.
Ebenezer Knight was "warned out" of Malden by constables for consorting/harboring two inmates. It may have been for harboring individuals who were not officially admitted as citizens of Woburn. Apparently, when that happened, one packed his bags and hit the road. It must have been interesting trying to find a place to come in out of the cold. Next records for Ebenezer appear in Milton, a community south of Boston.
