Suggested by Jay Litehiser (50490862): "It is from his memorial on familysearch. At Scituate, he was old enough to bear arms (16?) in 1643, and in 1645 was one of eight Scituate men serving for 13 days in the Plymouth Colony expedition against the Narragansett. He resettled in Braintree, either in Dec 1656, when he married Hannah, widow of Peter Shooter, or before. He and his family were living at Mr. Parker's farm in Braintree 22 Dec 1663 (Middlesex Court Recs.) He petitioned the Cambridge court 21 Jun 1664 for release from jail as he was poor, with a wife and 4 small children, having sold liquor to the Indians. Apparently, he was a man of humble position as he doesn't appear in any Suffolk County land evidence, nor did he leave a will. Killed by Indians 28 Feb 1675."
