From Robin Taylor 23 Apr 2005 (COOLEY-L): Joseph was known as Lieutenant Joseph. He was the only one of Benjamin Cooley's sons to leave Springfield and Longmeadow, Mass; removed about 1730/1, with his son Joseph II, to Somers. Joseph took the Oath of Allegiance in Springfield Dec. 31, 1678, and was a freeman in 1690. He served as a selectman in Springfield in 1705, 1711, 1714 and 1721.
