They had eight children, five of whom survived infancy.He was apprenticed to his father on a surgical apprenticeship in 1728.

He wrote a number of papers and books. 1774 saw his Plantae Favershemiensis appear, 1777 his History of the Town and Port of Faversham.

He was elected to the Society of Antiquaries in 1755.He was mayor of Faversham on four occasions, namely, 1749, 1754, 1765 and 1775.
