Joseph Higgins, born probably before 1697, was the son of Beriah or Benjah Higgins and a mother whose name is not known.

On 30 May 1718, Joseph Higgins in Eastham, mariner, sold land in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, which his father bought from Samuel Cutt of Portmouth. Joseph Higgins of Eastham died after 13 January 1726/27, the date he sold his title and interest in a 50 acre grant in Dover "made to my father Beriah Higgins now deceased and descending to me."
