He was Ensign and later Lieutenant in the Enfield Train Band; was selectman from 1711 to 1738; one of a church committee to settle difficulties between the church and their pastor, the Rev. Nathaniel Collins in August 1713; one of a committee to influence Mr. Collins to lay down the work of the ministry in March 1721-22; appointed moderator of town meetings 14 times between 1726 and 1743; was town measurer of land, 1723-1734; was Tythingman 1734-1737; one of a committee to seat the meeting house 1739; Delegate from Enfield to the Connecticut General Assembly May, 1750.

His son Benjamin who m. Ann Pryor, with several other members of the family settled Somers, where Benjamin Sr., owned a large tract of land. It does not appear that Benjamin Sr., ever lived in Somers; but lived and died in Enfield street. This home lot of twelve acres was situated on the east of Enfield street and was between the lot of Thomas Howard on the north and James Harwood on the south. The home lot went to his son Thomas at his death; and on this lot he lived and probably died, though he may have gone to Somers in his last days where the most of his children resided. Benjamin Jones Sr., seems to have devoted his attention to his own business and to caring for his children, who grew up an honor to their parents. Benjamin's father was Thomas Jones of Gloucester, Mass. We find no American record back of the birth of his son Thomas Jr., who was born March 25th, 1640. Thomas Jones of Gloucester m. Mary North, daughter of Richard North, and probably emigrated with a colony from Gloucester, England. Tradition says the family were Welsh; which is undoubtedly correct. Gloucester records
