  • Notes 
    • Was accidently shot at twelve years of age by Joseph Moody, a son of Parson Moody of York, who was commonly known as "handkerchief" Moody from his wearing of a black veil over his face all the later years of his life; due to the shame he felt for shooting Ebenezer. For the story see pgs 17-18 in The first three generations of Prebles in America.
