He enlisted in Hardwick, Massachusetts, in July, 1779, as private in Captain Comstock's company in Colonel Creadon's Massachusetts regiment and was discharged April 12, 1780.
He was allowed pension on his application executed May 19, 1818, at which time he was fifty-five years of age and was living at Royalton, Windsor County, Vermont.
