Information on Ebenezer Pratt Family
(Here is information on the George Pratt Family. George was born after the Revolution, so was not himself a Loyalist. Could Ebenezer have been a Loyalist?)
Ebenezer Pratt born abt 1750 and Wife Ann (unknown) had sons, George b. 1786 (the alleged Loyalist), son Grove b. 1792 an another son, Ebenezer Jr. no dob.
George Pratt b. 1786 married Olive Wood whose father was John Wood from Kitley. She had brothers, Cryil Carpenter Wood, no info and John Nelson Wood b. 1813 and Amos Wood, no info.
George Pratt's oldest son also named Ebenezer b. Dec. 1816 married Nancy Agnes Smythe (Smith) daughter of Peter Smythe b. 1784 in Elizabethtown, Leed Co., Ontario. and Mary Agnes Read b.1784. Both died in Elizabethtown, Leed Co., Ontario. Mary Agnes Read's father was William Read b. 1748, not sure where and mother Agnes Russell.
The 1801 census in Kitley & Bastard, Leeds Co. has Ebenezer, wife Ann and 8 in family which includes this George. 1804 actually names all of them in Kitley Twp., Leeds Co. Where they came from before Canada is the $64,000 question that all the Pratt researchers are trying to figure out. Best guess is Mass. George's's first son was born 1816 in Kitley and I have no idea when they went to Canada.
The only confirmation I have regarding George Pratt's military involvement is a Canada Land Petition "P" Bundle 2, 1843-1844 (RG 1, L3, Vol. 441)
Johnstown District: To wit: Ebenezer Pratt of the Township of Kitley in said District Yeoman maketh oath and saithe that he verily believes his claim (as the eldest son and heir at law) to the grant of land to which his father the late George Pratt deceased was entitled as private in a Flank Company of the Second regiment of Leeds militia during the late war to be equitable and correct that he this desponeth is not aware of any adverse or other claim or title existing fir the said lands or part of any other heirs or persons whosoever and that the land grant remains unlocated. Sworn before (unreadable) in the (unreadable) this eleventh day of January 1843.
Signed: Ebenezer Pratt (son of George Pratt)
Earlier information that I have stated that George Pratt age 27 was on roll of Captain Duncan Livingston's Company in 2nd Regiment of Leeds Militia on January 29, 1813 (Col Joel Stone's Papers).
Any further information on the Pratt family would be appreciated.
