He was a farmer, and of his father's estate he had one half the field near the river, bounded north by the land of his brother Thomas; two lots of cedar swamp meadow; six acres of land next to James Fales's; twelve acres of land north of the Neponset River, some of it on the river; and two cow-rights. Children of Joshua and 1st wife Mary (Boyden) Clapp, of Dedham and Walpole: 1. Joshua, b. in 1707; d. May 6, 1802, aged 95 years. 2. John, b. in 1709; d. Feb. 21, 1775, aged 66 years.

Mr. Morse. 4. Esther, m. Mr. Morse. 5. Mary, m. Eleazer Robins, of Stoughton, an innholder. Mr. Robins was the administrator of the estate of his wife's uncle, Eliezer Clapp, in 1749. The reason Eliezer's son Stephen did not administer was probably on account of his being a seafaring man. 6. Thankful, b. in 1716. Children of Joshua and 2nd wife Silence (Bird) Clapp: 1. Silence, b. in 1720. 2. Seth, b. in 1722.
