Notes:

Name:
He had no issue by the two last wives. About two years later his first marriage, he, with others, began to agitate the settlement of Wallingford, to which place he removed in May, 1670, with a small band of other adventurers, under the guidance and direction of the New Haven Committee, as it was called. By the records of Wallingford, it appears that he was one of the most prominent, active and energetic men among them. He assisted in the formation of the church, February 15, 1675, and in the call of the first and second ministers, viz: - the Rev. Samuel Street, in 1672, and Rev. Samuel Whittelsey, April 4, 1709.

In 1710 himself and the Rev. Samuel Street were the only surviving signers of the Plantation Covenant of Wallingford. September 19, 1710 he was one of a committee of three appointed to sell Indian lands, etc., in the town. He was a justice of the peace, captain of the train-band, surveyor of land, and moderator of their meetings, and kept the records of their proceedings for nearly twenty years.
