From "The Owl" SEP 1915, p. 1472

King Philips War broke out in 1675, and Nathaniel's half brother, Stephen Wing, was killed in the massacre of Captain Peasre's (sic) company of Seekonk, March 26, 1676. Nathaniel himself then about 30 years of age, enlisted as a soldier in the war, and served in Captain Gorham's company. Bodges Soldiers of King Philip's War at page 440, says that Nathaniel Wing was one of the residents of Sandwich granted lands in the Narragansett Grants, town of Gorham, Maine, for services in this war.  His grant appears to be taken by his son Nathaniel. Gorham's company was at the Great Swamp Fight in which the Narragansetts were so thoroughly punished.
