Note*: Sergeant Elijah Estabrooks II who was born c1728, in Enfield, MiddlesexCo., England, (died Abt. 1796 at his son, John's homestead at Swan Creek,Sunbury Co., N.B, ), and later came to the Saint John River married, atHaverhill, Mass., Nov. 14, 1750, Mary, daughter of Ebenezer and Hannah(Ring) Hacket, of Salisbury, Mass. The marriage ceremony was atHaverhill but is recorded in the Second Congregational Church atSalisbury. She was born in Salisbury Aug. 1, 1728. Her family were shipbuilders. Born about 1727, as a boy before the death of his father, Elijah (junior)must have been in Sherburne with his family between 1734 and 1740. Duringthis time he acquired a good education for his journal is well written.After his father's death, his uncle Joseph Frost or the Daniels probablylooked after him. The formal guardianship assumed in 1746 was 'probably asurety for him going out into the world.' Elijah soon found his way to Haverhill. His mother was there and therewas plenty of work in connection with ship-building. He was admitted tothe Second Church (Congregational) at East Salisbury on 04 March 1750. Hemarried Mary Hackett of Salisbury on 14 November 1750, with the weddingceremony being performed at Haverhill, Massachusetts, although it isrecorded in the Second Church at Salisbury. The family apparently lived in East Haverhill from 1750 to about 1757 asthe baptisms of the first three children are recorded in the FourthChurch (Congregational): Hannah, baptized 25 August 1751; Molly, baptized18 March 1753, and Elijah, baptized 23 May 1756. Elijah then appears tohave moved to Boxford, close to Bradford, about 1727, as baptisms of twoof his children appear in the records of the Second Church(Congregational) in Boxford: Samuel, baptized 11 December 1757, andEbenezer, baptized 09 September 1759. Elijah's wife, Mary Hackett, was born in Salisbury 01 August 1728. Shewas the daughter of Ebenezer and Hannah (Ring) Hackett, and her familywere ship-builders. Elijah's diary records two periods of service, he completed his firsttour of duty (after the battle at Ticonderoga) on 07 November 1758 andre-enlisted 06 April 1759. He went by ship to Halifax and during his tourof duty in Nova Scotia he became a Sergeant. His family remained inBoxford. He left Nova Scotia 25 November 1760 and arrived home 15December. During the next two and a half years, Elijah made preparations to movehis family the Saint John River, an area that was still called NovaScotia. Governor Lawrence of Nova Scotia was urged by the Lords of Tradeand Plantations to re-people the lands vacated by the French withsettlers from New England. Colonel McNutt went through the Essex Countysection of Massachusetts urging men to better their fortunes. In theNewbury-Haverhill district, a group organized and decided to examine thesituation. In the winter of 1761-1762, the Governor of Massachusettsappointed Israel Perley in charge of 12 men in the pay of Massachusettsto make a snowshoe journey through the wilderness from Maine to the SaintJohn River. Hugh Quinton was one of this party. Elijah was also one of this group. They went by boat to Machias and madetheir way by trails until they descended the Elijah and Mary (Hacket) Estabrooks apparently lived in East Haverhillfrom 1750 to 1757 for the baptisms of their first three children arerecorded there in the Fourth Congregational Church. They probably movedto Boxwood, Mass., about 1757 for the baptisms of two children arerecorded in the in the Second Congregational Church. The Estabrooks were a Pre-Loyalist family, whose ancestor, ElijahEstabrooks II had fought at Crown Point and Ticonderoga, had taken partin the capture of Louisburg and was in the army in Capt. Israel Herrick'sCompany, Col. Jedediah Prebble's Regiment, during 1758 and was dischargedNov. 7 of that year. He re-enlisted, April 6, 1759, and was sent toHalifax, Nova Scotia, where he remained until November 25, 1760. Duringthis time he became a Sergeant while in the army, 1758-1760.

Elijah reported ':Nothing remarkable from the 28th day to the 3rd day ofJuly 1758.' Sometimes a great many soldiers lives are claimed on the battlefield.Som times, there is a great deal of 'scurrying around,' for little greatreason. Elijah pointed out one example of this on 'July the 5th day of1758,' when they were camped out and one of their sentries 'heard arattle snake which caused him to cry out and aroused the whole camp...which caused our officer to order the whole to embark and haul off to themiddle of the lake and lay there until morning.' You have to imaginewhat Elijah and his mates were thinking as they realized that they wereall sitting in the middle of a lake because of a snake. On the other hand, Elijah made note of many of his comrades who did notsurvive the campaign. Elijah lived to tell his tale, and if I (Harold'Hal' Skaarup) may him the last word, it is (for Hal) the single mostimportant line in his Journal: 'And the 15th day (of November, 1760), Igot home to my family.' The last entry in the diary records his departure from Halifax. 'Nov.the 25th day, 1760: We embarked on board the ship and the 27th day wewent out to sea and about noon we had like to be cast away and we putinto Halifax again and laid there until the second of December, and wethen put to sea again and the 13th day we got into Boston and the 15thday I got home to my family.' His family remained in Boxford,Massachusetts. Elijah's diary records two periods of service, he completed his firsttour of duty (after the battle at Ticonderoga) on 07 November 1758 andre-enlisted 06 April 1759. He went by ship to Halifax and during his tourof duty in Nova Scotia he became a Sergeant. His family remained inBoxford. He left Nova Scotia 25 November 1760 and arrived home 15December. He got home from Halifax December 15, 1760, and during the next 2½ yearsmade preparations to remove his family to the Saint John River. GovernorLawrence, of Nova Scotia, was urged by the Lords of Trade and Plantationsin England to settle the lands on the Saint John River which were vacatedby the Acadians with people from New England. This resulted in asettlement at Maugerville, Sunbury County, New Brunswick, in 1763, byabout 80 families, most of them from New England. During the next two and one half years, Elijah Estabrooks II madepreparations to remove his family to the Saint John River. Early in 1763he moved them to Halifax, then to Cornwallis near Digby, N.S., intendingto leave them there until he made arrangements for their settlement atMaugerville in Sunbury County on the river which was a wilderness. Hecrossed the Bay of Fundy and joined Israel Perley's party which was goingup the Saint John River to occupy their lands. It is said he took hisson, Elijah III, a boy of seven years, with him to see the country in thespring of 1763, and finding the lot he had drawn in Maugerville floodedunder water. He decided not to use it and he returned to Cornwallis. During the next two years he was apparently exploring the possibilitiesof new land. Tradition says he paid a visit to Sackville, N.B., whereValentine Estabrooks had settled. However, he was apparently set on theriver, and on 18th of October, 1765, he entered the employ of Simonds andHazen and White, who operated a trading post, a fishery, a fur trade, andother businesses, at Portland Point (Saint John, New Brunswick). Eightyears later, in 1773 he made an agreement with William Hazen and JamesSimonds to settle in the Township of Conway near the mouth of the River,where the City of Saint John is now located. The lot grant to Elijah wasNo. 5, next to ship building plant. The lot next to him, No. 6, was ownedby his son-in-law, Zebedee Ring. Hazen and Simonds guaranteeing him 250acres of land. An old census return dated August 1, 1775, shows that hehad cleared and improved seven acres of land and built a log house bythat time. The first act of aggression in Saint John after the outbreak of theAmerican Revolutionary War occurred August 1, 1773, when a party fromMachias, Maine, entered the harbour in a sloop. They burned FortFrederick on the Conway side and captured a brig in the harbour which wasloaded with provisions for the British troops in Boston. The raids wererepeated several times later. The inhabitants of Conway took to thewoods to avoid the depredations of the marauders, their houses werelooted, and some burned. And the experience was repeated several timesas the war progressed. Eight years later, in 1773, he made an agreement with William Hazen andJames Simonds, to settle in the Township of Conway, at the mouth of theRiver, where the City of Saint John is located, Hazen and Simmondsguaranteeing him 250 acres of land. An old population return, datedAugus 1, 1775, shows that he had cleared and removed seven acres, andbuilt a log house. His lot was No. 5, next to the ship building plant.The lot next to him, No. 6, was owned by his son-in-law, Zebedee Ring. The first act of aggression in Saint John after the outbreak of theRevolutionary War, occurred in August, 1775, when a party from Machias,Maine, entered the harbour in a sloop. They burned Fort Frederick andcaptured a brig in the harbour which was loaded with provisions for theBritish troops in Boston. The raids were repeated several times later.The inhabitants were terrorized, houses were looted, and some burned. In May, 1777, John Allen, one of the most determined Americansympathizers, set out from Machias with 43 men for Saint John in fourboats. They spent several days on the River, and took Simonds, Hazen andWhite prisoners, later releasing them. After that experience, Simonds moved up the river to Sunbury Co., wherehe built a log house and lived for nine years. Elijah Estabrooks removedfrom Saint John also, to Gagetown, in Queens Co. On June 30, 1783, asurvey party sent up the River from Saint John by Maj. Guilford Studholm,to record who was in possession of lands, recorded for Gagetown: 'ElijahEstabrooks has a wife and eight children, a log house with two rooms, andabout twelve acres of land cleared. Came from Cornwallis about 16 yearspast; settled at the mouth of the river and says he was drove up by therebels.' In 1777, Eliah Estabrooks II, and those of his family who were stillliving at home, removed from the from the mouth of the river to landwhich was part of the Spry grant at Gagetown, on Grimross Neck. Thefollowing year, 1778, Mary (Hackett) Estabrooks died and probably buriedin the old Garrison graveyard on the Jemseg opposite Gagetown. He thenmarried, 17 Dec 1778, Sarah, widow of James Oakes and daughter of PhilipHammond of Marblehead, Mass., who was living at Cornwallis. When the Loyalists arrived in N.B. in 1783 some of them were determinedto dispossess the pre-Loyalists and occupy their land. Elijah EstabrooksII and his family at Grimross Neck found themselves harassed by theLoyalists and decided to remove to the Jemseg. He applied for andreceived 1½ of lots 25 and 26 in Cambridge Parish, Queens County. Hissons Ebenezer and Joseph received the other halves of the two lots. Hisso Elijah III was granted ½ of lot 3 at Jemseg, and lot 32 on theintervale. The lots in Cambridge were beautifully situated on a ridge overlookingthe Jemseg River near Grand Lake. The Garrison graveyard was just overthe fence on a slope stretching down to a creek. Elijah II and twomarried sons, Ebenezer and Joseph, moved to their two lots in 1787. Hebecame active in the Baptist Church in Cambridge and is mentioned severaltimes in a book published by Rev. Walter R. Greenwood, M.A. Th.D., in1941 entitled 'The Early Baptists of Cambridge Parish, Queens County,New Brunswick.' The children of Elijah and Mary (Hacket) Estabrookswere: Hannah (m. Zebedee Ring), Mary (m. Samuel Hartt); an infant whichdied five days after birth; Elijah III (m. Mary Whittmore); Samuel(died young); Ebenezer (m. 1st, Maria Fletcher, 2nd, CharlotteLounsbury); Joseph (m. 1st, Miss Clinch, 2nd, Lucretia Handy); Sarah(m. John L. Marsh); Abigail (m. William Harper); John (m. CatherineEbbett); and Deborah Estabrooks (m. Moses Clark). By his secondmarriage to Sarah (Hammond) Oakes, Elijah Estabrooks II had two children:Elizabeth (m. Martin Holts); and Hammond Estabrooks (m. RebeccaGlazier). Elijah Estabrooks II is said to have remained hale and heartyto the last. He spent his latter years with his son John at Swan Creekon the west side of the Saint John near Upper Gagetown. It is said therewere two things he used to pray for. His grandson's wife, Mrs. AbrahamEstabrooks, said that he used to tell of old times to his grandchildren.She said there were two things that he prayed for, one was that he shouldnever be sick and the other that he should die at his work. He used topound grain for the chickens in a mortar. One summer afternoon in 1796after working for a while he lay back in his chair and covered his facewith his hat. His grandchildren, who were playing around, thought he wasasleep but when they went to waken him for supper they found that he wasdead. He was buried in the Garrison graveyard at Jemseg, N.B. The above statement is found on pages 45, 46 and 47 in the book, 'PioneerFamilies of Carleton County, New Brunswick', Published for privatedistribution by George H. Hayward, C.G., 29 Leeds Drive, Fredericton,N.B. E3B 4S7, First printing, January 1994, Second printing, withrevisions, February 1996. George's E-mail: ghayward@@ndnetnd.ca His chief assets were the two half lots in Cambridge. His widow soldthese to her sons James and Benjamin Oakes in 1803. James had marriedRachel Olts 07 July 1792. The Oakes men probably lived there until 1813when they sold the lots to Archelaus Purdy and moved up to CarletonCounty. The Estabrooks men sold theirs about the same time, and moved upto Wakefield, Carleton County. Some of the Oakes men went on to Ontario.Sarah (Oakes) Estabrooks may also be buried in the Garrison graveyard. Florence Estabrooks tried to locate the site of Elijah's burial.Fragments of a gravestone with Elijah Estabrooks name had been scatteredin the graveyard located on Jefferson Dykeman's farm. The graves wereclearly defined but the stones were gone. Elijah's grave was about tenfeet straight in front of the entrance. The tombstone had a curved topand the name clearly cut. Florence indicated that the place had grown upin 1951. Elijah's children: (By Mary Hackett): Hannah, Mary, Sarah, Elijah, Samuel, Ebenezer, Joseph,and Sarah, Abigail, John, Deborah; (by Sarah Hammond-Oakes): Elizabeth,and Hammond. Elijah's son Ebenezer was baptized in Boxford, Massachusetts, 28 August1759. He married Maria Fletcher before 1783 and they had nine children.They settled on Gagetown Neck, but were dispossessed by the Loyalists in1785. He settled for a time on his grant in Cambridge (half of Lot 25);but by 1796 he was living in Lakeville, Sheffield. He was one of thosewho signed the covenant of the Church at Waterborough 20 October 1800.This was the occasion of forming the Baptist Church. He moved to Lincolnabout 1808. In the same year he received land on Little River. On 25December 1813 Ebenezer Estabrooks and a number of others applied to bedismissed from the church at Canning to join in forming a Baptist Churchin Fredericton. This was the beginning of the Brunswick St. BaptistChurch. In 1816, Ebenezer took up a large farm in Jacksontown, Parish ofWakefield, Carleton County, where he died about 1851. About 1814 hemarried a second time; his second wife was Charlotte Ann Lounsbury, born1782, died 1860. Ebenezer and Charlotte Ann had another five children.After Ebenezer's death, Charlotte Ann lived with the Rideouts, dyingabout 1860 at the age of 90. Ebenezer's children: (By Maria Fletcher): Ebenezer, Maria, David E., Thomas Fletcher, StephenPotter, Joseph Fletcher, William Wilmot, Deborah, and Harriet; (byCharlotte Ann Lounsbury): Ebenezer, Chipman, Sarah, George, and CharlotteAnn. Chipman was born 16 December 1818. He married Lucretia Smith 01 May 1849in Houlton, Maine, and lived in Waterville, Carleton County, where theyhad 12 children. Chipman died in Waterville 13 December 1890. Chipman's children: (By Lucretia Smith): Albert, Ebenezer, Stephen, Frederick, Wilson, John,Clara, Amelia, Joseph, Sophia, Annie, and Rhoda. Joseph was born 18 September 1861 and married Catherine Peed. They hadthree children. Joseph and his sister Sophia were twins. Joseph died 12January 1939, Catherine died in 1950. Joseph and Catherine's children: Walter, Minnie, and Frank. Walter married Myrtle Olmstead Walter and Myrtle's children: Kathyrn, Gaynelle, Frederick, Beatrice, Bernard and Wilhelmine. Beatrice Leah Estabrook married Aage C. Skaarup Beatrice and Aage's children: Harold, Dale and Christopher. Harold married Faye Jenkins Harold and Faye's children: Jonathan and Sean The following statements below is found in the book, ' The St. John Riverand its Tributaries ', by Esther Clark Williams, Copyright 1966. 'He looked for land at Horton, but found the best land taken up, andsettled on the St. John River. He had been eight years at the mouth ofthe river, and the eight years at Gagetown, according to the 1783 reporton the settlers. His log cabin at Conway had decayed, and probably theseven acres he had cleared there had grown up. He and his wife and eightchildren were living in a log house with two rooms, and he had twelveacres cleared at Gagetown. Turned off his lands at Gagetown, ElijahEstabrooks moved across the river, where he leased land from Captain Spryon the Jemseg. Two of Elijah Estabrooks' thirteen children die young,but the six daughters and the five sons who grew up and married did theirshare of contributing to the development of St. John River communities.' When Loyalists arrived in New Brunswick in 1783, there was a lot ofcompetition for land. Some of the old inhabitants had no deeds, ortitles that had never been recorded. The new arrivals had recordssearched, and when they found old inhabitants without sufficient title,they attempted to gain possession of their lands. They were determined todispossess the pre-Loyalists and occupy their land. This causedconfrontations, and in some cases, riots, and a few belligerents were putin jail.' This likely prompted Elijah and his family, including two married sons,Ebenizer and Joseph, to move from Gagetown in 1787 across the Saint JohnRiver to the Parish of Cambridge, in Queens Co., near Jemseg, where hewas granted Lot #32 on the Jemseg River, 58 acres, January 13, 1787.Ebenezer was granted Lot #25, 61.5 acres, and Joseph Lot #26, 114 acres,nearby, on the same date (N.B. Dept. of Natural Resources, Crown LandGrants index). Note: The Estabrooks-Palmer Records, George H. Hayward saw at the NewBrunswick Museum Archives in Saint John, New Brunswick, in 1978, say thatElijah's second wife was Widow Oakes who had, by her first husband, fourchildren: James, Benjamin, Sarah and Christopher Oakes. I (George H.Hayward) do not know if the Widow Oakes and Sarah Hammond are the sameperson. Elijah Estabrooks is said to have remained hale and hearty there to thelast. He spent his latter years with his son John at Swan Creek on thewest side of the Saint John near Upper Gagetown. His grandson's wife, Mrs. Abraham Estabrooks, said that he used to telltales of old times to his grandchildren. she said there were two thingsthat he prayed for. One was that he should never be sick. The other wasthat he should die at his work. He used to pound grain in a mortar forchickens. One afternoon after working for a while he lay back in hischair and covered his face with his hat. His grandchildren, who wereplaying around him, thought he was sleeping, but when they went to wakenhim for supper, they found that he was dead. Abraham Estabrooks, Elijah's grandson, was a son of John Estabrooks. Hiswife was Elizabeth Watson. Abraham and Elizabeth lived at Swan Creek,Sunbury Co., N.B., on the farm that formerly been owned by Abraham'sfather, John Estabrooks. Elijah died before Abraham was born. It isassumed that Elijah Estabrooks II died there, on his son John's farm.But he is said to have been buried in the Garrison Burying Grounds, nearJemseg in the Parish of Cambridge, Queens County, N.B.
