Biographical notes:

Ebenezer Parkman, son of William Parkman, a shipwright, was born in Boston on September 5, 1703. Soon after graduating from Harvard College in 1721, he became the first settled minister in the town of Westborough, in central Massachusetts, faithfully serving the community from the day of his ordiniation, October 28, 1724, until his death on December 9, 1782. Parkman married (1) Mary Champney (1699-1735/6), daughter of Samuel and Hannah Champney of Cambridge, in 1724, and (2) Hannah Breck (1717-1801), daughter of the Rev. Robert Breck of Marlborough, in 1737. Through his own marriages, those of his numerous brothers and sisters in the area, and those of his sixteen children who were married, Parkman's family relations extended throughout much of New England.
