In 1665 he bought 60 acres near the boundary with Concord, MA in what was then called Watertown Farms (afterward called the town of Weston). In 1669 he purchased 200 acres more in Watertown Farms. In about 1673 he moved to Charlestown where he died on July 8, 1681. In 1677 he took oath that he was 76 years of age, which would have made him born in about 1601. At his death, he not only owned land in Watertown and Charlestown, but also in Sudbury and Haverhill. The latter came into his possession in 1673 in payment for a debt owed him by Thomas Davis. Walter Allen's occupation is variously given as farmer, planter, haberdasher and shopkeeper. In 1681, the inventory of his estate amounted to 3015 pounds sterling, which was a goodly sum in those days. His second marriage took place when he was 78 years of age!
