He was born in the 1740s, most likely in the Mohawk valley. Educated in a white school, he had become acculturated to white customs. In 1759, during the French and Indian War, he was at the Battle of Fort Niagara, and the following year he was at the Battle of Quebec. In the summer of 1764, he accompanied John Bradstreet when he went to Fort Detroit at the end of Pontiac's Rebellion.
