JOSEPH, 8th known child of Bigod Eggleston by his 2nd wife, was baptized at Windsor 30 March 1651; in his will of 13 December 1673 his father bequeathed to Joseph 40s. "should [he] come and demand a portion," indicating that he lived at a distance. Stiles claims that Joseph married, resided in the area of North Stonington, and had three sons and "several daughters." One of these supposed sons had children born in the 1750s and later and another had children born in the 1770s and later; these are more likely descendants of a much later generation who have not been properly located among the known branches of the family, and should not be credited to Joseph, for whom no record has been found beyond his father's conditional bequest.
