Cuadebec in America tells us that he owned and occupied a farm in Shepekunk, New Jersey. He was a hunter, trapper and farmer. Settled in Wantage township in 1770, where he accumulated a large tract of land, later purchased large tract on Holland Purchase, where his children located and where he died. This branch of the family omitted on "d" in spelling the name. They moved to Niagra County, New York, to be with their children, who had emigrated to that locality.
