He was admitted a Freeman in 1674. He was "a man of integrity and worth and a respected and useful citizen". He served his town for many years as a Selectman and in 1690 was commissioned Lieutenant of Weymouth Company (Capt. Ephraim Hunt, commanding) and served in the expedition to Canada against the French and the Indians, in King William's War (1690/91).
