PARENTS: Jacob and Sarah Bartlett
WIFE: Abigail Adrich, married November 7, 1744 in Smithfield, Providence Co., RI

The following facts where taken from the book "THE BARTLETTS OF WEYMOUTH & CUMBERLAND, by Thomas Edward Bartlett (1892). Pages #44, 45, 46, 47.
Joseph was given a homestead and several tracts of land by his father Jacob (Feb 6, 1737-8). His uncle Moses also gave him a homestead with 40 acres (Mar 1, 1745-6) "located about a mile from said town of Providence, bounded by the Killingly road, and the Plainfield road, at the parting of the two roads." Joseph later gave this land back to his uncle Moses. The place given to him by his father was once owned by George Waterman. It was a short distance from the Mendon Road not far from the school house where the old Boston turnpike, as it was formerly denominated, intersects with it, and is at about an equal distance from the Woonsocket road, on the south, and the residence of Joseph's son, Livin, now owned by Leprelet Miller. About half way between the house and the Woonsocket road is the old Bartlett burying ground, where a number of the generations of the Bartlett's have found rest, very near the scenes of their labors. Joseph and his wife Abigail were Quakers, and members of the Smithfiled Monthly Meeting. They were married in that society and Joseph was frequently called upon to serve the society in different concerns. He was a member of the town council, and identified with the town's interests in various affairs. He was interested in the blacksmithing establishment on Muddy Brook, although confined principally to farming. It is handed down by their descendants that Joseph and his wife were a very pious couple, and took great pains with the education of their children in the ways of religion. Joseph died Dec. 1, 1791. His sons, Jacob and Abner were administrators of his estate. Abigail his wife died about 1804. Both were buried in the old Bartlett Burying ground. Many persons have been eulogized for their great and good deeds, yet few have improved their opportunities as well and left behind them such an enviable reputation for probity of conduct and purity of mind, as is accredited to the good, earnest, pious old Quaker Joseph Bartlett.
Note: There is much more information on Joseph Bartlett, as well as his land holdings and land descriptions. This is just a brief transcription of the facts found on pages 44-47. Please see the actual text for the complete text and descriptions.
