Born at Newton-Clifford in Welsh Herefordshire. He matriculated from Brasenose College, Oxford, 18 March 1635/6, aged 15; his stay at Oxford is indeterminate; his career from 1636 to 1649 uncertain, but probably he was a chaplain in the Parliament's forces in the South Wales campaigns of the second Civil War, and must have settled down in some guise in the Gower hinterland of Swansea. In the spring of 1649 he went to London, was baptized at the Baptist church that met in the Glass House, Broad Street, and was, by its leaders, sent to spread Baptist principles in Wales. His headquarters became Ilston in Gower; the first baptisms (as recorded in the church register) were dated at the beginning of October 1649, the last on 12 August 1660; the total baptisms were 261.
