Aug. 11, 1736; will probated Sept. 7, 1736, dated July 17, 1726; Hartford Probate Book, 12, p. 50. After his mother's death in 1700, he settled in Kensington, probably because of a gift of 300 acres fo land there, from his father in his will, dated Sept. 10, 1674. This land the elder Gilbert had acquired from Massecup, an Indian, who with other Indians had sold land to Samuel Wyllys, John Talcott and others. Before 1717 he had built himself a house on Christian Lane with bricks made from clay taken from his own land. That Ebenezer was a man of standing in the community is shown from the fact that with the exception of Mr. Burnham, he was the only man in the community entitled to the prefix "Mr." There are several references to him in the Kensington Church Records. He was seated in the first "pue" next the pulpit. "At a meeting of the Church Jan. 7, 1716-1717, Insign Isaac Norton was appointed to take care for the obtaining a fashionable and decent "cushing" for the desk of our Meeting-house upon the Society's charge"; apparently he was not successful for at the Annual Meeting, Dec. 1, 1718 "Mr. Ebenezer Glibird was appointed to provide a convenient cushen", etc. He was considered a very rich man; at the death his estate amounted to �4242.5.0; included in the inventory were a negro �100, woman �45, boy �100, child �50, total �275. Children 1694-1712: Esther, Lemuel, Thomas, Sarah, Moses, Jonathan, Ebenezer. [ref 56:182] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | ||||||||||
