"ISAAC [HOWLAND], born Nov. 15, 1649, in Plymouth; died March 9, 1724. Married Elizabeth VAUGHAN of Middleborough. He was an earnest, active citizen and was very prominent in the early settlement of Middleborough, residing on the land willed him by his father, the Pilgrim John HOWLAND. He was surveyor of highways in 1672, selectman in 1674, admitted freeman in 1681, member of the 'Grand Enquest' in 1682, licensed in 1684 to keep an Inn and a deputy in 1689-91. (These Inns or Taverns could only be kept under a license from the General Court, which was only issued to the 'grave and sober'. The keeper had to pledge himself that 'quiet should be enjoyned in the appartments' of the guests.) He partook of the military spirit of the family, and acted as Lieutenant to Col. Benjamin CHURCH in his raids for King Philip in August, 1676."
