Joseph Bullard
d.Bef 1722
Facts and Events
Joseph appears to have owned a homestead before his father's death, located on the east side of the Harbor Island road, a few rods from the corner of Main Street. This house was destroyed by the Indians; and he never rebuilt it, but settled with his father. In 1695, he purchased and settled upon a lot of land lying on what is now the Dedham road, near the corner of the three towns, Medfield, Dover, and Walpole. In the following year, he sold the old homestead in Medfield, and it came into the possession of Rev. Mr. Baxter. He died prior to 1722, and his widow received aid from Medfield for several years. The record of his marriage has not been found. [some of this information comes from Bullard and Allied Families[4]]
