A Patriot of the American Revolution for NEW HAMPSHIRE with the rank of LIEUTENANT. DAR Ancestor #: A035709
Lieutenant Ebenezer Eastman (1746-1794) was commander of a company in Col Stark's Brigade at the Battle of Bunker Hill.
Mary Butler (1756-1836), wife of Lieutenant Ebenezer Eastman, is described in a poem by Benjamin F. Taylor called "Mary Butler's Ride". On the Sabbath day after the Battle of Bunker Hill, Mary was in Church with her daughter Abigail, and hearing cannon shells explode she jumped on a horse with Abigail and headed for Charlestown, NH. Half way there she left Abigail with friends and continued on through the wilderness, guided by burning trees, and found her husband safe and sound.
