2. Joseph White, married Lydia Rogers Sept 19 1660 at Weymouth, Mass. He died March 23, 1706. She died May 8, 1727. He and his wife went to Mendon, Mass, in 1662, in which year he had an allotment of land in that town. He had another lot laid out to him in July 1663, which was renewed in December of the same year. At about this time the settlement was broken up by Indians (it was then known as a plantation called Scahapange, first settled Oct 16, 1660 by people from Braintree, Mass., they having petitioned the General Court for an allotment of a Township). Joseph White and his family returned to Weymouth, where they remained a few years, and then with other settlers again made their home in Mendon. He was given a thirty-five acre lot when the town was organized May 15, 1667 and on July 14 of the same year, he was one of a Committee to divide the "Meadow Lands."
On May 11, 1668, Joseph White was elected Surveyor for the town, and on May 19, he is on a committee to purchase land from the Indians.
In 1670, he was one of a "Committee to settle, as Minister, the Rev. Joseph Emerson, from Welles, Maine." On 1 Jan 1673, he is called Sergeant Joseph White, and is elected Selectman. On Nov 15, 1675, Sergeant Joseph White is in command of a company of Scouts in "King Philip's War."
On May 25, 1685, he signs a petition to the General Court at Boston, asking for effectual laws to stop the sale of liquors to the Indians.
He was a sergeant in the local military company on Jan 3, 1686, when he was elected Selectman, which office he also held in January 1689, in which year he was called Captain. ...
Note that this source (possibly copying an earlier one) incorrectly assigns the death date of Joseph's daughter-in-law Lydia (Copeland) White to his wife Lydia (Rogers) White.
