(The Marshfield records are incorrect, giving his birth year as 1639).
Joseph's father Robert died in 1652. His mother Elizabeth remarried the next year, to Thomas Tilden, and had one surviving child by him, a daughter Lydia. Elizabeth died in 1663, and Thomas married, second, Mary Holmes. Joseph would later raise Lydia's son Joseph as part of his family.[Doggett, Samuel Bradlee, ''A history of the Doggett-Daggett family'', 1894, [https://archive.org/details/historyofdoggett00indogg/page/355/mode/1up? InternetArchive]]
Joseph referred to himself as a "house carpenter" and "yeoman" in deeds. He acted in various town capacities: selectman, surveyor, several juries, and constable. In 1673 he volunteered as one of four troopers that the General Court ordered raised from Marshfield.
Joseph married Sarah Snow, daughter of Anthony and Abigail (Warren) Snow, and granddaughter of Richard Warren of the ''Mayflower'', by about 1673[New England Marriages to 1700.
