Joseph NICKERSON⁽⁵²⁷⁾ was born in Dec 1647 in Yarmouth, MA. He died between 1725 and 1731 in Harwich MA. Joseph, born in Yarmouth in 1647, was the youngest son of William and Ann Nickerson. He died between 1725 and 1 731 in Harwich. Mass. He married Ruhamah Jones sometime before 1677. She was born about 1650 and died after 1735.

Joseph lived on a tract of land his father conveyed to him north of Ryder's Cove. For several years he lived in East Harwich, but in 1697 he purchased 50 acres of land at Muddy Cove from Barnabas Lothrop for 25 pounds in silver. He took residence and remained there the rest of his life. He also owned Lots 6 and 16 in the Quason Purchase. Little is known about him, but he was reputed to be a quiet, peaceable man.

His wife, Ruhamah, apparently was one of the most colorful if not the most admirable of our ancestors! She was a "great beaut", but "of a disagreeable nature" and delighted in harassing others, so that both her Indian and white neighbors tried not to offend her. It is said that if provoked, she would play havoc with their washing, their choice plants, and the fruits of their harvest. She was ready for an argument or a fight at any time. She was even suspected of complicity when Edward Bangs' barn was burned - after they had quarreled. Upon subsequent trial, Ruhamah was said to be ill and unable to attend court. For Joseph, an adverse action regarding security for his wife would cause him to lose his estate and render them destitute for life. This affair was decided favorably after he petitioned for abatement. Ruhamah lived to a "great age" and had remained sitting for so many years that, at her death, it was thought best to bury her in "the same crooked position" on Burial Hill south of Ryder's Cove where many early Nickersons were buried. Parents: William NICKERSON and Anne BUSBY.

He was married to Ruhamah JONES before 1677. Children were: William NICKERSON.
