Joseph Willard was the son of Rev. Joseph Willard and his wife, Susanna
(Lynde) Willard and was a posthumous child and not born till about
three month after the tragic death of his father, which occurred in
Rutland, Massachusetts, at the time that Phineas Stevens, then a youth
of sixteen with his younger brothers, were taken prisoner by the
Indians and carried to Canada.
Reverend Mr. Willard was born at Saybrook, CT and graduated at Yale
College then located at Saybrook in 1714 and received the degree of
M.A., then the highest given at Harvard College in 1723. He was first
settled in Sunderland, whence he removed to Rutland where he was soon
to be installed, when his death from the manner in which it occurred
sent a thrill of horror through New England.
The following account is from Whiting's History of Worcester County.
"As Deacon Joseph Stephens and four of his sons were making hay on
the meadows at Rutland, on the 14th of August 1723, they were surprized
by five Indians. The father escaped in the bushes. Two of the sons
were slain and two, Phineas and Isaac Stevens were made prisoners.
Two of the five Indians waylaid a Mr. Davis and son, who that afternoon
were making hay in the meadow, not far off; but weary of waiting, they
were returning to the others and met Mr. Willard on their way, who was
armed, he having been on a hunting excursion. One of the Indians guns
missed fire, the others did no execution. Mr. Willard returned the fire and
wounded one of them, it is said mortally. The other closed in
with Mr. Willard who would have been more than a match for him, had
not the other three come to his assistance, and it was some considerable time
before they killed him.
On the death of this excellent man, Lieut. Governor Dummer in a becoming
spirit wrote to the Governor of Canada as follows: "I have a
right to complain that Mr. Willard, who had never been quilty of the
facts charged upon Mr. Ralle, who applied himself solely to the preach-
ing of the gospel, was by the Indians you sent to attack Rutland,
assaulted, slain and scalped and his scalp carried in triumph to Quebec".
"It was not the Indians, however" adds the historian, "that were chiefly to
blame in this matter, but the rulers of the French Nation
who invited the savage by a premium offered for every trophy of vict-
ory."
The widow of Rev. Joseph Willard, Susanna (Lynde) Willard, married sometime
after the death of her husband, to Rev. Andrew Gardner, into
whose family her children, William and Joseph Willard were received and
in connection with whom they were brought up.

Joseph Willard the progenitor of the above families, with his wife and
children were taken by the Indians on June 7th 1760 and carried to
Canada. The place is still shown on the hill to the east of where his
cottage stood, where the party who took them prisoners halted, while a
portion of them returned to the house for provisions to sustain them
on their way. They were conducted by the old route up Black River to
the Green Mountains and thence to Otter Creed and Lake Champlain. They
returned to Charlestown after the surrender of Montreal. Mr. Willard
died in Charlestown after a brief illness in 1799 and was buried on the
12th of September of that year.
p.629
Joseph Willard was under Col. Josiah Willard at Fort Dummer from Feb.
12th to July 1st, 1748. He was also a member of Capt. Phineas Steven's
company at Fort No. 4, in 1750
p.88 History of Charlestown, NH
During the time Goffe had his headquarters at Charlestown, N.H., and
his regiment was employed in clearing the road between Charlestown and
the mountains, the trails of the Indians were occasionally seen in the
adjacent woods, but they were too few to make, under the circumstances,
any general attack.
Before this regiment, however, had reached Charlestown they had made an
incursion and carried off Mr. Joseph Willard and his wife and five
children. They were taken at their homestead on the edge of the Great
Meadow, a short distance from the present (1876) residence of Mr. Peter
A. Evans, on the 7th of June 1760.
Considering Samuel, the youngest, who was an infant, somewhat burden-
some to them, the Indians took him aside the next day and beat out his
brains against a tree. The family was taken to Canada, their journey
through the wilderness occupying fourteen days. They remained in
captivity till the surrender of Montreal, into which city they had
been taken a few days previous to its capitulation, when, with other
prisoners they were of course released. This was the last incursion
of the Indians on the frontiers of New England, and the bloody scene which
has so long been opened is now closed. The eastern Indians soon
agreed on articles of peace and acknowledged themselves subjects of the
Crown of England. Notwithstanding, the war still continued in Europe,
and a few provincial troops were raised in 1761/62, New England was still
exempted from further hostilities and, on the tenth of February,
1763, a general peace was signed in Paris, and soon after ratified by the
belligerent powers of Europe, by which Canada and all other northern French
settlements passed quietly under the jurisdiction of the British Crown.
