He was made freeman May 20, 1658, and the following year was one of the 'engagers' who removed to Hadley, Massachusetts, and became one of the original proprietors of that settlement. His home lot of eight acres was located on the west side of Main Street of Hadley, the fourth in order from the north limits of the settlement.
