Ward's account of this Hezekiah is thoroughly confused with that of
his cousin Hezekiah (WRN 1028). The two Hezekiahs married sisters
Abigail and Elizabeth Eames, and Ward has them backwards. Furthermore,
Ward ascribes the same military service record to both, and applies
the designation "Junior" to the wrong one. The citations to Ward
herein have been sorted out to refer to actual events, regardless of
Ward's misallocations. Nonetheless, further research may be needed to
