He lived near Bridgman's Fort, and was in Captain Phineas Stevens' company, 1746-49. He was a sergeant at Number 4, and wrote Captain Stevens an account of the attack on that place June 20, 1749, when Ensign Sawtelle was killed and a son of the captain taken; he was mortally wounded by Indians June 27, 1755, when Fort Bridgman was taken and its occupants carried into captivity in Canada. He died the next morning at Hinsdell's Fort and was buried a short distance to the northeast of it.
General Notes: Wife - Jemima Sawtelle
Her first husband, William Phipps, was killed by the Indians at Great Meadow. She was captured when the fort was taken, and with her seven children carried to Canada; with three of her children she was redeemed and brought home before 1760 by Colonel Schuyler. She afterwards returned to Canada and recovered her second daughter, Submit Phipps.
