1)Elizabeth Rice (1718–1776)
2)Sarah Howe (1732-1806)
Ezekiel moved to Worcester from Marlborough about 1742. Although all his children were probably baptized, there wasn't an established minister at Worcester. Son Ebenezer's baptism, which took place at Worcester, appears in the records of the minister at Weston, MA (and is included in the town's published vital records), who travelled in the region to perform those rites. Ezekiel was a representative of Worcester to the Massachusetts legislature ("General Court") in 1777. (1) Elizabeth died there and was buried in the cemetery formerly in the town common, and she is included in an epitaph transcription of the yard. Interrments and surviving gravestones there (they were laid flat and buried in 1853) were transferred to Hope Cemetery in the 1960s. Hope hasn't yet been checked for a gravestone. Ezekial brought his second wife Sarah and her daughters Elizabeth and Sarah to Shrewsbury, where they are said to have lived on the property occupied by Nathan Pratt in 1847.∼His gravestone in the cemetery behind the Congregational Church in Shrewsbury
married Elizabeth Rice May 20, 1740, Marlborough
