Biographical history
Ezra Abel Huntington was born on June 12, 1813, in Columbus, Chenango County, New York.
He was a clergyman and educator. He graduated from Union College, Schenectady, N.Y. in 1833 and for a time he was a teacher. He took a private course in theology at Schenectady and was admitted to the Third Presbyterian Church in Auburn, N.Y. (1837-1855). In 1855, he became a Professor of Biblical Criticism and de facto President of Auburn Theological Seminary and lectured there until his death in 1901. He was not only a professor but also a librarian of the seminary, and the head of the beneficiary funds. Several of his sermons and funeral discourses were published. He received Honorary Doctor of Divinity (1847) and LL.D. (1883) degrees from Columbia University.
In 1839, he married Anna Euphemia Van Vechten (1817–1866) and in 1868, he married Katherine Van Vechten (1825–1926). He died on July 14, 1901, in Auburn, Cayuga County, New York.
