The other line

Olive Arthur, started with their son William. He was born ca.
1469 and died in 1530. He married Aline Covert and it is

Church, Puddleton. He married Agnes Handcock, b. 1498 in

and acre of land he received in the division of land on May 22,

In the division of cattle at that time, Robert and twelve others

JOSEPH BARTLETT, born Feb. 15, 1646, Newton, MA,
died Dec. 26, 1702, Cambridge Village, Newton, Middlesex, Co.,
MA. He married Oct. 27, 1688, Cambridge Village, Mary Waite,
b. Feb. 15, 1646, Newton, died Dec. 21, 1721, Newton, the
daughter of Richard Waite (Weyte), born Apr. 10, 1604, Alford,
Lincolinshire, England, died Sep. 17, 1680, Boston Suffolk Co.,
MA, married 1635, Boston, Elizabethe ?---, b. ca. 1615/16,
Newbury, Essex, MA, died 1651 Newbury, MA. Joseph had many
problems both with his family and with his land. Middlesex Co.
Court files show a case brought against him in Dec. 1671 to be
heard in Apr. 1672, in which he confessed to "uncivil and rude
carriages toward his family and wife and living out of his
family day and night to ye great disgrace thereof." He is
recorded as being a poor man and of receiving help from the
Selectmen of Cambridge of Five Pounds to build a house. He
received Four Pounds, one Shilling to buy land on the South side
of the river. Later Court records show he had his barn torn
down by a neighbor, and the lumber and a load of bark hauled
away. He won his case but lost all on appeal. Still later he
had to mortgage his land. Once land was bought from the Town
but a few years later he sold it back to the Town because he
could not "enjoy it quietly." Thus are examples of the life of
this ancestor.

A note of interest: In 1678, Joseph
Bartlett signed a petition for the separation of Cambridge
Village from Cambridge. The petition was granted in 1679, at
which time there were sixty-five freemen in the town. In 1691,
the name of the town was changed from Cambridge Village to New
Town. Thus a poor man by most accounts left his name in history
and probably his only claim to fame.
