_____In 1792, Zebulon and Abigail belonged to the North Rochester Church and the new Creed and Covenant was adopted at their house, but Middleboro was really their home. He succeeded his father at Quittacus Lake.
His will placed a value on the property, sixty acres, at $1,400, also part of two islands there at $400, eight acres of swamp in Freetown, $300, and two pews in the meeting house at $10. Most of his property, both land and personal, went to his son, John, except a chaise and certain movables in the house. To daughter Abiah went $500, the clock and half the movables, and to Betsey, another daughter, were given the chaise and $100, while her children received $400 and the other half of the movables.

Her place of birth is uncertain.
The Rochester Vital records record two births for Joanna Haskell:
(1) Joanna Haskell, born 13 May 1740, daughter of Ephraim Haskell and Mehitable (Tobey) Haskell.
(2) Joanna Haskell, born 11 December 1737, daughter of Mark Haskell and Mary (Spooner) Haskell.Since the cemetery index for Palisado cemetery indicates that she died in August 1769, in 29th year of age, it is most likely that the Joanna Haskell born in 1740 married Samuel Wing.
Died by drowning. Records of the First Church of Windsor report that he died at age 24 on 9 August 1815 "drowned by design."
