• Notes

  First recorded at Charlestown, then Haverhill, then Stonington in 1669, where he was voted an inhabitant 24 Jul 1672. He later moved to Plainfield, Windham County, where he was listed among the freeholders living on the east side of the Quinebaug River on 24 Dec 1702. Contrary to some online family trees, he was not a sea captain, or indeed a sailor of any kind. In Haverhill he appears to have been a farm laborer for several farms.
