Capt Moses Fish, Voluntown, Ct

In Lester Warren’s “The Fish Family in England and America” on page 277 he has the following to say about Capt. Moses Fish:

"Capt. Moses Fish, Colonial veteran, son of Moses and Martha (Williams) Fish, was b. at Groton, Conn., Oct. 20, 1714; was m. to Elizabeth Morgan, Nov 7, 1745, by Rev. Mr. Crosswell. …He was a Captain in the Colonial Militia and was one of those given land at Voluntown for his military service."

Does anyone know of other records to substantiate this Moses Fish being a Colonial Veteran and receiving land in Voluntown?

Thanks. Jim. JimWrt@aol.com
