In 1734 and 1738 he represented Norwalk in the General Assembly. In 1718, he, along with others was chosen to lay before "a wise and judicious committee" the "surcomstances of ye town in their present differences respecting the meeting-house." In 1734, along with Joseph Platt, he was appointed to lay out the land granted by the town "in ye plain before Lt. Lee's door," for St. Paul's Church.[2]
On November 18, 1737, he gave a lot of land eight rods square to the "Presbiterian or Congregational church of Wilton, on which to erect a meetinghouse." He confirmed this by deed on May 6, 1738, in which he said "among the congregation are some of my children," naming his son John as one.[2]
On January 21, 1752, he bought for £2400 the farm previously owned by his son John in Sharon, and settled there not long afterward.[2]
