Author: Roy Hutchinson
In early 1800's, Ebenezer Hutchinson first moved from Amherst, NH where his father, Solomon, was one of the first selectmen for Amherst. He then went to Fayette, ME and later removed to North Paris, ME, and built the first mills in North Paris, ME.
These were situated on the outlet of the Moose Pond--the grist mill on the west side, and the saw-mill on the east side. Stephen Chase, in his diary, speaks of his purchase of boards of Hutchinson, January 8, 1802.
These mills were operated by Hutchinson and his sons until about 1812 when he, with his son’s families - the Waltons, Colburns and Jordans who had intermarried with the Hutchinsons, emigrated to Hamilton County, Ohio, then to Jefferson County, IN. Ebenezer then moved to Vanderburg County, IN. with his son's Ebenezer Hutchinson, Jr and Abraham Putnam Hutchinson.
His sons Nathan and Asa remained in Jefferson County, IN. His son John moved from Hamilton County Ohio to Clark County, OH and then to North Lewisburg, Champaign County, OH.
Send a biographical sketch of your patriot!
Patriot biographies must be the original work of the author, and work submitted must not belong to another person or group, in observance with copyright law. Patriot biographies are to be written in complete sentences, follow the established rules of grammar, syntax and punctuation, be free of typographical errors, and follow a narrative format. The narrative should unfold in a logical manner (e.g. the narrative does not jump from time period to time period) or have repeated digressions, or tell the history of the patriot's line from the patriot ancestor to the author. The thinking here is that this is a patriot biography, not a lineage report or a kinship determination project or other report published in a genealogy journal. The biography should discuss the qualifying service (military, patriotic, civil) of the patriot ancestor, where the service was rendered, whether this was a specific state or Continental service, as well as significant events (as determined by the author) of the patriot's life. This is the entire purpose of a patriot's biography.
