Joseph Kingsbury
(Abt 1611 - 1676)
Joseph was admitted as freeman in the church at Dedham in 1641. He tried for admission in 1638, but was turned down as he was thought "too much addicted to the world." But by 1641 the church was "so well p'suaded of his repentance and faith as ye he was received into ye fellowship of ye church." His wife Millicent was apparently more devout as she was admitted to the church before him as she "appeared to ye church a tender hearted soule full of feares and temptations, but truly breathing after Christ."
