He resided at Charlestown, and followed the vocation of saddler, a trade which has been engaged in by several of his descendants, and is at the present time followed by a member of the family in a suburban city. He was admitted to the Church, Oct. 3, 1731. He inherited a part of the homestead, from his father's estate, in addition to what his father had given him some time previous (Mid- dlesex Co. Deeds, v. 18, p. 523).
Ruth Wyer, the second wife, owned the Covenant, June 9, 1717, and was admitted to full communion with the Church, Aug. 3, 1729. With wife Ruth, he sold two lots of land in Cambridge, which were laid out to the right of his grandfather Andrew^ Stevenson, Oct. 26, 1724, and Nov. 21, 1732.
His tax was a-bated in Charlestown in 1726 and 1727, at that time he being rated in Medford ; then fi-om 1727 to 1746 in Charles- town again, with the exception of 1738 and 1739, when for some reason he was not taxed. Sept. 12, 1743, he was appointed guar- dian over his tw^o children : Elizabeth, who was seventeen years of age, and John, aged fifteen years, both children by his wife Ruth.
No record has yet been found of his death, but it must have oc- curred about 1747. He died intestate.
