Individual:
Copied from notes of Horace Chipman Grosvenor and Oliver Gay Grosvenor around 1930's-1940's.
Was the noted landlord of the Pomfret Tavern, a resort much frequented in the stirring times just before 1776 when rum and debate flowed with equal freedom. (This may be known as the old Ben Grosvenor Inn.) "The White Pine series", "The Old Hill Towns of Windham County Connecticut" Vol x, #1 1924 p.8. Ebenezer Grosvenor Jr., like his father, held offices of responsibility, and was one of the committee to choose the site of the second meeting-house in 1760. He married Lucy Cheney, and they were said to have been the handsomest couple ever to enter the meeting-house. She was the first to be buried in the Hall (North) Burying Ground. It was Ebenezer II who opened the famous Revolutionary tavern in 1771, a Place where many officers were entertained, and a headquarters for military news and events. Here Washington fed his horses when he called on his friend, Col. Thomas Grosvenor in 1789. It was here the proprietors of New Pomfret (Pomfret, Vermont) met on Christmas Day in 1779, to lay plans for a new town in the wilds of the north, as the younger generation was finding the mother town too old and thickly settled for their proper advancement, and was ready to join the tide of emigration that had already begun. Folklore and Firesides of Pomfret (Susan Jewett Griggs) p41-42.
