He moved to Westfield in 1677 and had 5 more children (see book for detailed listing). He probably removed back to Windsor before his death, as he died there Aug. 18, 1690. He was lieutenant in King Philip's war, and in 1678 was appointed "lieut. to the ffoote company" at Westfield, and in 1679 was one of a com'te of two appointed by the town to petition the General Court in their behalf. All of his sons were living in 1706, and had families residing in Westfield.

_____________________________

Descends from one John Moseley, who settled in Dorchester in 1630. In 1641, land records indicate he spelled his name Maudesley. Research of the early genealogical history of settlers in New England shows that the original spelling of Maudesley was indeed changed to Moseley throughout the family. John was buried in a tomb in the old burying ground in Dorchester.

Mother: Mary Newberry (1647-1703), burial unknown.
