    It is said that James was the first settler of Coles Hill in Plymouth.

    An article sent to me by Cynthia Ferguson tells how James was elected a freeman of Plymouth Colony in 1634 and was granted a license to operate a public house, or tavern. In 1637 he was fined for violations, including selling liquor to the Indians, selling liquor on Sundays, and watering down the drinks. In 1640 the colony rescinded his license and then he was fined for selling without a license. It was restored in 1645.
