Joseph, of Westfield, was freeman 1680, and removed to Colchester, CT.25
From the Pomeroy Family:117
Joseph was one of the early settlers of Northampton, and is credited to that town as a soldier in King William’s war, having served at intervals between 1688 and 1698. It is said that he lived in Westfield, MA, and Lebanon, CT, and in 1703 removed to Colchester, CT, and about 1715 he removed to Boston, locating near Corn-hill.
Joseph Pomeroy removed to Colchester very early in the settlement of that town, and was one of the original proprietors. He had a division or a home lot, as it is sometimes spoken of, in the first allotment in 1701, on the hill ‘Chemantups’ (a hill in the north part of the town, so called by the Indians from its resemblance in shape to a human skull), and probably lived there.
In 1703 he was appointed, together with Ebenezer Coleman, a committee to eject at their sole expense, certain trespassers ‘by force if necessary,’ who were taking up land in a place called Pangwonk, (south and west of Gardner’s Lake), under the authority of one Major Palmer, who claimed to have derived a title to certain lands there from an Indian, one Captain Sanape. There were finally successful in doing this, and for their services the proprietors granted them each one hundred acres of the land in dispute. Joseph Pomeroy was a man of prominence in town affairs. We find him an officer during the whole time covered by his residence here. In 1703 he was appointed to run the town lines between this and other towns. In 1708 he was chosen constable, collector and lister. We find his name among a list of fifty-two who were proprietors of the town in 1713; also, in this year we find that he sold two farms in Colchester; and also, the following entry in the records: ‘Dec. 14, 1713. To ball all town ’Counts, £00 13 3.’
Probably this was in settlement of his accounts with the town as a Collector, etc., which closes his connection with the town of Colchester, as far a we can ascertain, as his name after that disappears from the records.
The Colchester records has the following: “The General Court. Oct. 17, 1703, having been petitioned, granted to the inhabitants of Colchester liberty to imbody themselves into church estate and to call and settle an orthodox minister of ye Gospel among them with the advice and consent of neighboring churches.” He was one of the earliest members of this church.
In connection witli his church history, we find in Stiles’ History of Windsor, a letter dated 2 April 1711, written by him to Nathaniel Loomis of Colchester, in which he says: “I being heare at Windsor to see whether Mr. Thomas Elsworth would come and compleate the Bargain which he and you made concerning ye finishing of our meeting-house, and he says yt he is no ways concerned, having agreed with you to finish the work, which I know to be so, and your not coming to do it makes some trouble amongst us,” and urges him to come and attend to the matter, threatening if he does not that “we shall speedily put you to trouble about it;” etc.
In 1728 we find in the Boston town records that Joseph Pomeroy was chosen clerk of the markets. * * * In 1730, that he was chosen and sworn as Constable of Boston. * * * In 1733, that he paid a tax of 8s for repairs to pump in the Towns Ground, Corn-Hill, Boston.
