Joseph Holden

Birth: Sep. 6, 1683 Watertown Middlesex County Massachusetts, USA Death: Nov. 3, 1768 Westminster Worcester County Massachusetts, USA

Joseph Holden was the fourth son of Justinian Holden and Mary Rutter. He was born at Watertown on September 6, 1683. He married there, on February 17, 1714, Abigail, daughter of William Shattuck and Susanna Randall. They lived in Watertown for the next 14 years, and all their children were born there. Abigail must have died sometime around 1728, because Joseph married Elizabeth Russell of Cambridge on June 11, 1729. In the spring of 1737, Joseph moved his family to the newly laid out town of Westminster, becoming the first permanent residents there, the first family to arrive there having moved away after only a few years.
