    Lived between Nathaniel and Joseph Hall and William Hersey in Harpswell, 1790 census Maine.
    Purchased land jointly with Isaac Hall in 1747.
    __________

    He may have served on the Connecticut Inspection and Safety Committee during the American Revolution.

    Sebascodegon Island now called Great Island, lies close to Harpswell, Maine and Brunswick, Maine and is now connected to the mainland by a bridge.
    __________________

    Purchased land from John Watts, 1746-49 Vol 26, p 237 and from Wentworth, p 309. It appears that the main purchase was from John Watts, and the second deed from Wentworth, et al, was made to clear up the title. See the Isaac Hall records for a transcription of the first deed.

    Both purchases also have Isaac Hall purchases from the same parties on the same or next page.
