Eliakim livved in Sandwich until shortly after the birth of his first child, when it is believed he moved to Plymouth, Mass., in 1736, about the time his parrents and the rest of the family left Sandwich for Lebanon, Conn. He and his wife became members of the church in Plymouth in 1737, and town records show he was chosen a petit juror in town meeting 24 Dec. 1739, for similar duty again 13 Dec. 1746, and was a representative to the Assembly in 1742. Births of three children are recorded in Plymouth. About 1750 he joined his relatives in Lebanon where his two youngest children were born and his wife died. In 1760, with his brother Elias, he joined a group of Connecicut farmers who, with their families, migrated to Nova Scotia, settling on lands granted them in Cornwallis. Although Eliakim died there the first winter, 28 Feb 1761, the family remained and his son, Charles , became founder of the extensive Canadian branch of the Tupper family, who with descendants of Elias(4) and of his cousin Nathan (4), the pioneer of Queens County, N.S., constitute not less than one third of all Tuppers living on the North American continent today." from Tupper Genealogy by Eleanor Tupper.
