Individual Notes
• He held the military title of sergeant, and was sent into the Narraganset country, during King Philip’s Indian war, and was wounded in the shoulder at the great Swamp fight, Dec. 19, 1675. In Oct., 1678, the general court, on his application for relief, having, as he says, been severely wounded in the cause of his country, awarded him the sum of £5.431, p 233

• He inherited from his grandfather, Thomas Beebe, and his uncle, Thomas Butler, a valuable property in New London. He is said to have been remarkable in his day for acceptable services rendered to his friends and neighbors in times of sickness and of death, not in a professional capacity, but either as a voluntary or invited assistant. It was commonly said, that for forty years there was not a funeral in New London that he did not attend. His son Ebenezer continued the good offices of his father, and was as regularly found as the physician or the pastor at the bed side of the sick and dying. Of his twelve children only four are known to have survived him or to have left descendants.431, p 234
