52 ANCESTORS IN 52 WEEKS 2017 WEEK 3 EBENEZER ELLINGWOOD OF BEVERLY, MA. & AMHERST NH. PT1

My 6x great grandfather Ebenezer Ellingwood married Sarah Tuck, the daughter of John & Sarah (Reith) Tuck on 13Mar 1718. I found the marriage record on FamilySearch: It's on the right hand page next to the orange line I drew in to make it easier to see:


"Massachusetts, Town Clerk, Vital and Town Records, 1626-2001," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FH5Z-VXS : 13 July 2016), Ebenezer Ellinwood and Sarah Tuck, 23 Mar 1718; citing Marriage, Beverly, Essex, Massachusetts, United States, , town clerk offices, Massachusetts; FHL microfilm 864,851.



This is an enlarged image of the entry: 


Ebenezer and Sarah had ten children, the first eight of whom were born in Beverly, Ma, the last two in Sowhegan West, NH.:

Ebenezer Ellingwood , b.30Oct 1719 in Beverly, Essex, Ma.
Sarah Ellingwood, b. 8Oct 1721 in Beverly, Essex, Ma.

I'll discuss why Ebenezer  moved his family north in the next post.
