If the date of death, 1759, is accurate as reported in Getchell, the claims of served in the War of Independence, captain of militia, 1774-5; Captain of a Company of Minutemen who marched from Amesbury to Cambridge, 1775; delegate to the Provincial Congress (at ages 93 to 95 and over ten years post mortem must be in error.
