He moved with his father to New London in 1650 and lived there until about 1687. He married before 6 June 1671, Mary Green or Gray of the Plantation of the Narragansetts in Rhode Island; and secondly Mary2 Graves, daughter of John, b. in England, and sister of Benjamin2, who married Mary Hoar. … He moved to Lyme in 1685, and in Dec. 1687, he sold his land in New London that was granted to him in 1673. He moved to and settled in East Haddam in 1692, where he was a blacksmith, had the title of Mr. and was the first selectman of the town."
