    • Military: 1773, Boston, MA
    • Appointed: 30 Aug 1776, Roxbury, MA; A committee of Correspondence

    Notes:

    He lived and died in Roxbury, where he carried on the business of tanning. he was a prominent citizen of the town, and was appointed in 1772 on the Committed of Correspondence and again in 1774, one of the Committee of Fifteen to "carry into execution the agreement and association of the Continental Congress." In the losses sustained by the people of Roxbury the next year he was one of the principal sufferers.
    1 His wife was Amy Plimpton of Medfield. By her he had 13 children, 8 sons and 5 daughters. Seven of the these sons served in the continental army.
    2 The second, Ebenezer (who was the grandfather of Gov. Dorr of Rhode Island), was the one to convey the intelligence of the intended expedition of the British to Lexington on April 19, 1775. He went out over Boston Neck to Roxbury the night before, "mounted on a slow-jogging horse, with saddle-bags behind him, and a large flapped hat upon his head to resemble a countryman on a journey." The Americans obtained this news, through an individual by the name of Jasper, an Englishman, a gunsmith by trade, whose shop was in Hatter's Square; he worked for the British, but was friendly to the rebels; a Sergeant major quartered in his family and made a confident of him, telling him all their plans. Jasper repeated the same to Col Waters, who made it known to the Committee of Safety. The Colonel has often told this story, years after, to his then young friend, Joseph Curtiss, who is still living. From "Paul Revere and the World he lived in" by Esther Forbes, published 1942 - "Rev. John Elliott once wrote to another divine... In this town the most respectable triumvirate, Thomas Crafts, Paul Revere and Harbottle Dorr." The idea that Paul Revere was the only rider that night was so picturesquely implanted in the American mind that Longfellow in 1863 there was natural reaction when it was learned that he was by no means put alone (although Revere and William Dawes were sent officially) others noticed something was afoot that day.... Those were Ebenezer Dorr (and two others). All three of these men were among the 'countrymen' Revere mentioned as having been collected in the pasture before he himself was caught. " Listed in the records of Roxbury Vol. 7. "The intelligence that the British intended to go out to Lexington was conveyed over Boston Neck to Roxbury by Ebenezer Dorr of Boston, Leather Dresser or tanner, who mounted on a slow going horse with saddlebags behind him and a large, flapped hat on his head to resemble a countryman. Colonel Josiah Waters of Boston, a staunch Whig, and one who later helped build Roxbury forts, followed on foot on side paths at a short distance (behind) till he saw Dorr safely past the sentinels."
