L'histoire de ma famille

The biographical information is derived from A History of The Early Settlement of Newton by Francis Jackson (printed 1854). I’m assuming that for the most part, Francis Jackson knew what he was doing and didn’t completely make things up. That said; please take all information with a grain of salt. I’ll be referencing Francis as FJ.

Jeremiah “was Selectman sixteen years, and Moderator of Town meetings for many years”. In his will he gave his sons Thomas 92 acres of land, Joshua the homestead of 125 acres, and Josiah 66 acres.
