• Notes

  Soon after the close of the Revolution, a society called the Ohio Company was formed for the purpose of founding a state on the banks of the Ohio river, and Ebenezer Porter was one of those who shared in the enterprise. The first party started for the Ohio in 1787, and he was of the number; later he returned and took his family back with him. He had previously served in the expedition against Crown Point.
