Whiting in 1690 and his capaincy in the trainband in 1696 by his soldier's chlice-later approved. He was under Matthew Allen in Queen Anne's War (1702-1709). A letter to his wife from Woods Creek Camp, near Albany, on the move against Quebec says that himself, Obadiah Owen, Matt Taylor and Bartlett were all sick, Taylor the worst.

      From John Sibun's book Our Town's Herita
      From John Sibun's book Our Town's Heritage 1708-1958 Hebron, Connecticut, published by Douglas Library, Hebron, CT, 1975:"The first white men to settle in town [Hebron] were Timothy Phelps and William Shipman, who arrived in Hebron from Windsor in June 1704. The area, then a wilderness, was used by the Indians as a hunting ground, and the few white men who knew of its existence passed through to other locations. The first two houses were located along Route 85 south of today's center. Approximately on what is now the Hilding driveway, Shipman built his homestead and Phelps constructed his home across the road on the land now owned by the Porter family. It is possible they worked on their property during the summer months only for the first two years, and returned to their families in Windsor when winter set in."Timothy moved with his younger brother Nathaniel to Hebron in 1690. Hebron was incorporated in 1708, and Timothy was one of the first selectmen. Another brother Joseph moved there later.

      Moved from Windsor to Hebron, CT. He a
      Moved from Windsor to Hebron, CT. He and William Shipman were, in 1704, the first settlers of Hebron, in an area that until then had been an Indian hunting ground. The town was incorporated in 1708. Very likely Shipman and Phelps only spent the summers in Hebron the first couple of years, returning to Windsor in the fall. Tradition has it that at one point Timothy's wife Martha decided her place was at her husband's side, so she and the children took off on their own through the woods to find him. The journey took at least a couple of days, being a good 20 miles in a straight line. According to tradition, when they got in the vicinity they stood on a hill calling until Timothy heard them. This journey was quite a feat for Martha and her family, for her mother had been lost on a similar excursion.
