      Lieutenant Joses Bucknam was the ancestor of the Malden (now Everett)
      Bucknam family and of the Swan family of Everett which intermarried with
      the Bucknam s. Joses's wife was Judith Worth, who is referred to by him in
      his will as "J ude." Joses Bucknam lived with his family of eight children
      in the Bucknam ho mestead (see notes for William, Joses's father). Their
      names were: Joses B., Hannah, Samuel, Jude, Susanna, William, Edward, and
      Lydia. He drew his will o n August 14, 1694, bequeathing to his son Samuel
      the Bucknam homestead. He sp ecified that Samuel was to have the four
      acres upon which the homestead stood , the twenty-acre lot, and six
      additional acres. This is the way the will was worded: "4 acres
      adjoining, butting to the homestead so it may reach to the spring for ye
      benefit of watering." Joses had purchased additional land in 16 77 from
      the lot known as Johnson's Playne, which consisted of fourteen acres
      bounded by what is now Norwood Street. He gave the balance of his land to
      h is other sons, and money to his daughters. Joses Bucknam died on August
      24, 1 694 at the age of fifty-three and was buried in Bell Rock Cemetery.

      & consent of Rachell my wife," sold to Jose Bucknam of Malden seven acres

      Atwood acknowledged this deed on 24 October 1674, he signing and she
      making her mark [MLR 7:176].
      He made his will August 22, 1694, whic h was proved December 11, 1694. He
