Nov. 15, 1725, at Kensington, Conn.; … settled in Kensington, Conn., and was one of the members of the new Second Church Society of Farmington, at 'Great Swamp,' Kensington Parish, and a pillar and deacon of the church established there Dec. 10, 1712, on Christian Lane, just south of the Middletown railroad, the site of which is marked by a monument erected by the Daughters of the American Revolution. … The ancient cemetery is on Christian Lane, a few rods north of the railroad, but the Cowles graves, if any. are unmarked. … together with his brothers, Samuel and Isaac and other persons, signed a petition to the General Assembly, Oct. 11, 1705, requesting a settlement of an Ecclesiastical Society at a place called the 'Great Swamp' on account of the inconvenience of attending services at Farmington about six miles distant, indicating that they all then resided there, though this is not of record.
