Isaac Richardson

Notes:

Isaac Richardson lived on "Richardson's Row," in the easterly part of Woburn,
and about half a mile, more or less, from the present village of Winchester.
His farm adjoined that of the second Ezekiel Richard, son of Theophilus. His
will dated 28 February 1688/1689, recorded Middleton Probate Record, vii 11,
mentions wife Deborah, son Jonathan, then under twenty-one years of age, sons
Edward, Joseph, Benjamin, and David, all minors, and daughters Mary and
Elizabeth. "Two eldest sisters" are mentioned, to whom Jonathan, the eldest
son, was to pay ten pounds each when they came of age. their names do not
appear in this connection, but they must have been Mary and Phebe. the
testator disposes of other land, and a house then building, besides the
homestead. He had a lot near "bare hill" -- more correctly Bear Hill -- in
Charlestown, afterwards included in Stonham. Samuel Richardson [1556], Stephen
Richardson [1557], and Thomas Fuller, his brother-in-law, sign as witnesses.

Notes:

Jonathan Richardson's father died when he was under twenty years of age, and he
was probably left to his own resources. He seems, early in life, to have gone
to Mendon, then in the County of Suffolk, and made his home there. Mendon then
included Milford, Blackstone, and parts of Bellingham, and Uxbridge. Seventy
acres of land in Mendon were laid out to him, 10 April 1699, and twenty acres
more, 25 March 1702. He was "of Providence" in 1709; but in 1719, he was again
in Mendon, selling land there, 1 January 1718-1719, to Samuel Thayer, of that
place, as we learn from Suffolk Deeds, xxxvii. 69. But another deed, dated 5
January, 1722-1723, describes him as of Providence, as does another conveyance,
1 January 1726-1726.

Notes:

Joseph Richardson united with his brother Jonathan in a conveyance of land in
Woburn, probably in the present town of Winchester, which they inherited from
their father Isaac Richardson, who died in April 1689. At the date of this
conveyance both brothers had left, or were soon to leave, Woburn. He owned
land in Stoneham, probably near "Bear Hill," for which he was taxed as a
non-resident, in 1726-1727.

Notes:

Twin brother of Joseph, Benjamin Richardson lived in what is now the town of
Stoneham, on the border of Woburn. Stoneham was then a part of Charlestown,
and known as "Charlestown End," until its incorporation, 17 December 1725. He
removed about 1717, to the new town of Leicester, incorporated February 1713.
Leicester was then, and till 1731 in Middlesex County, which will account for
the settlement of his estate in that county. A request for administration on
his estate was presented by his widow Lydia, 6 January 1729-1729.
