I have a a story about Ebenezer leaving New Orleans headed home. I am not sure of routes or means. A local historic society in NH said he had a traveling companion named Michael and that they were traveling through Ohio. On 20 Sep 1827 an Ebenezer Bohonon was given a land grant of some 79 acres in Township 2-N, Monroe County, Ohio. Adding fuel to the fire, I have also found an excerpt from New York, Death Newspaper Extracts, 1801-1890 (Barber Collection) dated 22 Jul 1846 stating an Ebenezer Bohonnon died at the age of 56. This date would coincide with his birth year of 1790. Does anyone have information that would corroborate either situation?
