Sgt. Ebenezer Washburn, Esq., J.P., U.E. [1] (April 8, 1756 – November 12, 1826) was a businessman and political figure in Upper Canada. He was born in Attleboro, Massachusetts in 1756 and settled on a farm in what is now Rutland, Vermont. In 1777, he joined Major-General John Burgoyne's troops. He was captured but released to visit his father, who supported the rebels, in Keene, New Hampshire. He left on the pretext of getting his sister and escaped to Quebec, where he joined Edward Jessup's Loyal Rangers. After the war, he settled on a farm in Township No. 2 (Ernestown). Later, he moved to Hallowell Bridge (Picton), where he became a merchant and forwarder of goods.
