Biography
Married Elizabeth Trumbull on 17 Aug 1733 in Taunton, Massachusetts. [1] They had 11 children: Elkanah, Zephaniah, Perez, William, Isaac, John, James, Betsey, Freelove, Sarah & Susan
He was a Blacksmith - he sold his shop, along with his home and one quarter acres 7 Mar 1748 to Eliphaz Harlow of Rehoboth
Died 21 Aug 1785 in Voluntown, Connecticut [2]
I've found atleast two death records that indicate he died in Sterling, Windham, CT. It's important to note what used to be the northwest area of Voluntown is now the town of Sterling. Sterling was established in May of 1794. [3]
Burial: Riverside Cemetery Sterling Windham County Connecticut [4]
