    In the division of cattle at that time, Robert and twelve others drew the tenth lot which was a "heyfer of the last yeare called the white belyd heyfer and two shee goats." Robert served as a member of the grand jury and several terms as surveyor of highways.

    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.
    Children:
      Mary, b. Feb. 17, 1672

         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.
