He was a physician and lived, married and died at Suffield. He was a Selectman for thirty years, and Deputy in the General Assembly from June, 1768, for many years. He was also, in January, 1788, a delegate to the Hartford Convention called to ratify the Constitution of the United States. From December, 1774, until his death he was the Town Clerk, and in 1799 was ordered by the town "to collect and transcribe all the records of marriages, births and deaths into one book." He completed the transcription with an index in an admirable manner. This book is now styled "Suffield Records-Births Marriages and Deaths-Vol. 1." He also, in 1796, prepared some Genealogical notes of the King Family of Suffield, to which we are indebted for a reference to the location of the family at Ugborough, Devonshire, England, before the immigration of our ancestor to America, enabling us to trace our English ancestry in the Ugborough Parish registers.
