Read in the Ellingwood kin research (Ellingwood line: notable kin, in-laws and new material (research report), October 2026). The town's armed watch on the tea ship Dartmouth at Griffin's Wharf, to keep the tea from being landed: the list for 29 Nov 1773, "Captain, Edward Proctor," includes "Paul Revere" and "Robert Hitchborn" (p. xlvi); "Robert Hitchborn was a cooper, on Anne Street, in 1789" (p. xlix). That Robert was at the Tea Party itself, on 16 December, is family tradition only.
