"DAR records indicate he is a Revolutionary War Veteran
Family information: Bachelor, no children
He came from Connecticut about the year 1788 and settled on lot #76 on the east side of the Susquehanna River, 1 1/2 miles above Bainbridge New York. He afterwards removed to the mouth of the Unadilla River. He was an eccentric genius, and a bachelor, living alone in a small log hut, which stood upon a low flat, adjacent to the river. Two interesting anecdotes of his life are contained in "The History of Chenango County" by James Smith. "
