He served under General Amherst in the French and Indian War, and in 1761 was one of the original settlers of that part of the town of Salisbury now known as Franklin, then the northernmost New England settlement.
At the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War, he led the Salisbury militia to Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Subsequently, he fought at White Plains and Bennington, was at West Point during the treason of Arnold, and served in other campaigns until the close of the war, when he had attained the rank of colonel of militia.
Ezekiel graduated from Dartmouth College in 1804, studied law, and rose to eminence in his profession.
