    8. Joseph2 Emerson (Robert1), born at Haverhill February 26, 1669; … He resided at Haverhill, carpenter and millwright by trade. Was 'impressed' into service and served in Andros' expedition at Pemaquid in 1688 and 1689. Was a highway surveyor in 1704. Gave his son Joseph 50 acres of land March 2, 1719-1720. 'Sergt. Joseph Emerson' was chosen one of the overseers of the poor the first time that office was filled in Haverhill, in 1730.

    He made his will November 3, 1749, speaking of himself as 'aged'; it was proved September 8, 1755; gave to his wife Hannah what she brought with her at marriage and comfortable maintenance; made his son Joseph executor and heir with Thomas, David, James, Jabez, daughter Mary Kimball, and the children of his deceased children Robert and Daniel Emerson and Hannah Patten (her name is given in the copy of the will in Essex Probate records as 'Hannah Dent')."
