"John was a soldier in Philip's War. John was raised in Scarborough and in August 1668 he bought 50 acres adjoining his father's property. He was a selectman in Scarborough in 1669, 1673-74, 1684 and 1688. John's estate on 28 Nov. 1681 consisted of 50 acres of land, 12 acres of marsh, 1 cow, 2 mares and 1 sheep. The settlement at Black Point was still in poor condition when the Indians and French attacked Fort Loyal on Casco Neck in May 1690. After a seige of five days the fort surrendered and the inhabitants of Scarborough without waiting to be attacked themselves left their homes and moved to safer localitites. John and his family moved to Portsmouth, New Hampshire at this time and never returned to Scarsborough. In Portsmouth as a miller, he and his sons built and ran the grist mill on the Vaughan privilage."
