---------
70. Arvilla or Aurora
(Others are said to include Irwin and Grace. There are records of one
daughter's family in Champlain, but her marriage is not proven. The sons,
if any living, probably did not go to Carlisle, but daughters' children
did.)
From his father's estate, land on Birchard's Plain was set off to
Eli, next his brother Andrew, in 1767. He spent his childhood there, and
was a resident of Norwich when he enlisted. Boys over 12 yrs. usually
passed for the military age of 16, but we still think it probable he was
with one or both of his older brothers. There are no records of Conn.
service of any Pember in the Revolution, listed on Rolls. The Vt. Rolls
record his services there; during the latter part of that service he live d
in Vermont. In fact, he was at home while guarding the frontier at
Castleton. (His wages for 10 mo. was 20£). Poultney has a few Grand List s
of 1785-1795, and Eli appears on them. If his mother Irene was living, sh e
was with either Eli or Andrew in Vermont. (see Census of Andrew) The 1790
Census gives Eli's family as himself and 3 females of all ages. Records o f
the sale of his Poultney land were lost, and we do not know the date of
his removal, which was a little before 1800.
He settled first in Canada; many of his neighbors and comrades were
moving north and settling near the head of Lake Champlain. Soon he decide d
on Champlain, Clinton Co., N. Y. and lived there 25 yrs. or more. The
earliest record of him in Dr. Benjamin Moore's account book is dated
Page 79
June 28, 1802. July 13, 1805, is the item "to visit Aurora." (?), Among
the papers of Judge Pliny Moore is mention of a lease to Eli Pember of 3/ 4
Saw-mill House; Dec. 30, 1808. And from his journal: "Apl 16, 1809,
Rose Pember lost. "No further item is found to relieve our suspense about
Rose. She could have been a daughter of either Eli or Andrew, or Andrew's
granddaughter, if a young child. She had namesakes among the descendants
of Ethan A. No Pember burials have been found in the Champlain Cemetery,
laid out 1799.
From a tax list of Champlain in 1823, we find that Eli owned a farm
of 40 A. on Lot No. 16 of the Refugee Grant. "This lot forms the N. W.
corner of the town of Champlain, near the settlement known as Perry's
Mills." (The mills owned by Col. Scheifflin from E. Westchester, N. Y.,
were bought in 1819 by George Perry.) The Refugee Grants were for honorab le
service performed in the Revolution. "At the close of the Revolution, New
York State granted a tract 231,540 A. in the N. E. and central parts of
Clinton Co. to Refugees from Canada and the United States. The lands were
divided into 80A. and 420A. lots, except 5000A. which was divided into 15
equal lots and granted to officers and privates among these Refugees."
(Hurd's Hist. Clinton Co., p 25.) A list of settlers before 1800 contains
no Pember.
Eli was living in Ohio in 1832. If he accompanied his nephews, the
date of leaving Champlain was about 1828/9. His order daughters. had
been married and settled long before that date. The following facts are
from his Pension claim W. 2335:
While a resident of Norwich, Conn., he enlisted in Oct., 1775 and
served one year as private in Captain Daniel Throop's Co., Col. Burrall's
Conn. regiment, during which he was on the expedition to Canada, was in
the battles of Chambly, Quebec, the Cedars, and Three Rivers. He enlisted
in the spring of 1777, served as private in Captain Silas Howe's company,
Col. Mead's Vermont regiment and was in the battle of Hubbardton; on
July 12, 1777, he enlisted and served seven months as corporal in Captain
Ebenezer Allen's company, Col. Herrick's Vermont regiment, during Which
he was in the battle of Bennington, in both battles of Stillwater, and le d
a detachment of forty men on an expedition to Split Rock and took many
prisoners, also horses and cattle, without the loss of any of his men. He
enlisted in April, 1778, and served two months as private in Captain Jess e
Sawyer's company, Col. Robertson's Vermont regiment; he enlisted in
July, 1778, served two weeks as private in Captain Dewey's Company, Col.
Robertson's regiment, and from sometime in September, 1778, served three
weeks in that same company; he enlisted in February, 1779, and served two
months as private in Captain William Hutchins' company, Major Whitcomb's
Rangers; he enlisted Feb. 1, 1780, and served ten months as corporal in
Captain William Hutchins' company, under Major Ebenezer Allen; he enliste d
Oct. 15, 1781, and served fifteen days as corporal in Captain Isaac
Tichenor's company, Col. Ebenezer Walbridge's Vermont regiment; in 1782,
he served under Major Bronson in the defense of the frontiers, length of
this service not given.
After the Revolutionary War, Eli Pember lived a part of the time in
Lower Canada, a part of the time in Champlain, NY., after which he moved
to Lorain Co., Ohio. It was stated that he served in the War o 1812, no
details of this service given.
Page 80
He was allowed pension on his application executed Aug. 2, 1832, at
which time he resided in Carlisle Township, Lorain Co., Ohio. He died
there June 22, 1851. (The nearest town is now Oberlin. The graveyard
used by all early Pembers was at "Murray Ridge".)
Clarissa Pember, the soldier's widow, was allowed pension on her
application executed Feb. 14, 1858, at which time she resided in Carlisle
Township, Lorain Co., Ohio. She applied April 19, 1855, for the bounty
land which was due under the Act of Mar. 3, 1855, on account of the servi ce
of her husband, Eli Pember, in the Revolutionary War. She was allowed
160A of bounty land under warrant No. 11417, by the United States. Joshua
Myres and John V. Coon, both of Elyria, Lorain Co., Ohio, were with said
Clarissa Pember when she made application for bounty land. (Ervin Pember
had made affidavit in 1853 in her behalf.)
The Land Office states that Clarissa's right 11417- 160A. of public
lands was sold to John M. Vincent, value received, Mar. 6, 1856, in Lorai n
Co., Ohio. John M Vincent located the warrant on the N. W. 1/4 sec. 12,
Tier 24 N., Row 1 E., in the district of lands subject to sale at La Cros se,
Wis. Patent for that tract was issued to him Apr. 3, 1858. (La Crosse Co.
has no records of that time.)
Clarissa Pember died Sept. 1, 1858, in Wood Co., Ohio. John K. Hord
was appointed administrator in 1861 by the Probate Court of. Seneca Co.,
Ohio, and the arrears of pension, Mar. to Sept., 1858, were paid to him.
(How were the Hurds related to Clarissa?)

Moore
Judge Pliny Moore, (son of Noahdiah 1730-1786) b. Apr. 14, 1759,
Sheffield, Mass; d. Aug. 18, 1822, Ae 68, Champlain, N. Y; m. 1787, Mary
Corbin, dau. John Corbin of Conn. ch: Noadiah, b. 1788, Kinderhook, N. Y. ,
et al.
Judge Moore was the first permanent American settler in Champlain in
1787. Among the 18 proprietors he had the lion's share, -50 lots. In 1797
he opened a land office. His residence was on the" Moorfield Patent." In
1807 he was appointed Judge. Some of his papers are in the possession of
descendants.
---------
Haskell
Eliphalet Hascal settled in Altona before 1810, on the Duerville Pat ent,
and kept tavern at the sign of the large moose antlers.
---------
Note that Judge Moore was of Sheffield, as were several Poultney fam ilies,
Ashleys, Owens, Ebenezer Allen. Many Poultney men went north when Pember s did,
and some from their Poultney home settled in Clinton Co.-Priest, Richards , Hurd,
Van Deusen, Hambleton, Squier, Hosford, Allen.
---------
Note other possible children of Eli might have gone with their cousi ns to
Sorel, Canada.
A Pember said to have m. Betsey Squier, b. abt. 1795 and res. Carlis le,
must have been Eli's son, unless one of Ira's sons, and they were younge r than
that birth date.
There is a line from an intermarriage with Briggs, one with Stryke r or
Stryver in Western N. Y., one with Hambleton. The Briggs line may be th e same
as allied to descendants of Augustan.
(See Briggs Rist. Concord.) Buffalo Hist, Soc. Rec. as follows:
Isaac. Baker m. Sarah B. Hambleton Sept. 4, 1850. Also
Pember E. Hambleton m. Minerva Atterbury Nov. 28, 1878.
Fam. Rec. has, Pember Erotus Hambleton was son of Amos (William of Penn.,
William, William of Eng.) and Mercy Ann (Briggs) Hambleton. The Briggs ar e desc.
from John Briggs of Wales. Mr. Pember Hambleton resided at Orchard Park , Erie Co.,
N. Y., formerly called E. Hamburg. His desc. believe ancestors were onc e of
Vermont.

Hebard, Hibbard
Ithamar Hebard b. Canaan, Ct., served as Chaplain in Rev., res. at o ne time
in Norwich Ct., was an intimate friend of the Pember-4 brothers in Ct. an d Vt.
and in War, and probably related by marriage. He was one of the earlies t arrivals
in Wells, established a home, and was Town Representative 1778-9, but ha d removed
to East Poultney by 17S0, and became pastor of that church. While pasto r in
Poultney, he usually administered communion in the Middletown Congo Chh , which had
not yet settled a pastor. Mrs. William Frisbie and Mrs. Joel Frisbie of M iddletown
were his sisters. East Poultney was the home church of the Andrew and El i Pember
families during their stay in Poultney, and Rev. Hebard their pastor.
He is said to have been a poet, as well as a pious man and a preache r; the
leading men of Vermont often consulted him on public matters. The road pa st his
church was the one kept hot by the "Green Mountain Boys" in those activ e days.
Ethan Allen quotes Rev. Hebard in his "History of Vermont", pub. London , 1798. The
story of his "persecution" and the church controversy may be found in Vt . Gazeteer
under Poultney, Hubbardton, et al. Those writers call it the beginning o f the
anti-Masonic movement in Vermont. Anyway some of his membership thought h im
old-fashioned, and another minister was engaged. He was pastor of Cong. C hh of
Hubbardton, Vt., 1798-1802, and d. Mar. 2, 1802.
These town histories give him about 2O ch, some of them ministers. T he 1700
Census counts 8 ch at home.
Ithamer, b. Dec. 19, 1768, Norwich, Ct. (Norwich V. R.) Was he eldest?
Rev. Ebenezer was minister in Brandon Chh I800-182O.
