BUCKMINSTER, or BUCKMASTER *. THOMAS BUCKMASTER, the progenitor of this family, came, according to tradition, from Wales, and is named in the Col Records, Ap. 30, 1640, when he received a grant amounting to £10, from the General Court.t He was made free, May 6, 1646. He lived at Muddy River, (now Brookline), where he d. Sept 20, (Bos. Ree. say 28), 1656. His will, dated Sep. 2, '56, is recorded in Suff. Prob. His wid. Johanna, m.

* Buckmaster is the name given upon the Records to all of the first and second generations. In a deed to Joseph, son of Thomas, the origi- nal ancestor, dated July 23, 1660, (Suff. Deeds), the name of Buckmin- ster first appears, and is given to Jo- seph as grantee in the deed. The bounds of the land conveyed, are des- cribed as "on a lot late of Tho. Buckmaster dec'd, father to the afore- said Jos. Buckmaster, party to these presents."
Thomas or James Buckmaster,
(we think the former is most proba- ble; the name is evidently altered from Thomas), received a part in the division of meadows in Sud., prob. ab. 1639. " BUCKMASTER's house- lot " is referred to, 1643, as near John Freeman's house. The individual does not appear to have resided long in Sudbury.
# Farmer gives the name of John, as perhaps a son of Thomas. We have found no verification of this conjecture. There is a John Buck- man on the Boston Rec.

Col. Joseph the f., was a prop. of lands in Fram., 1693. The precise date of the removal of his family to the Town, is unknown. In deeds, dated 1702, he conveys as of Muddy River. He was adm. to the ch. by letter, Jan. 5, 1718. He was Selectman, 1700 and for 17 years in all ; was Representative 12 years, and in the commission of the Peace many years. His estate in the town was large, his title to which involved him in protracted law- suits which continued after his decease. He held several military commissions, commanded a Co. of Grenadiers, in Sir Charles Hob- by's regiment, in the expedition to Port Royal, and subsequently had the command of a regiment of the Colonial militia. Tradi- tion describes him as a man, tall and athletic, of great physical power, and of a resolute spirit. After participating largely in the events connected with the early history of the town, he d. Ap. 5, 1747, æ. 81 years. The remains of his mother and 2 wives were buried in the same grave. He m. 2d. Martha Dall, of Boston, Feb. 7, 1716, who d. Feb. 1724-5. He left a " negro woman, Nan- ny," valued in his Inventory at £80. For numerous convey- ances to and from Col. Joseph, of land in and near Boston, see Suff. and Mid. Deeds.

The Rev. Joseph, of Rutland, is spoken of by Whitney, (Hist. of Worc. Co.), as " the able, faithful and worthy minister of R." Eliot (Biog. Dic.) calls him a "Sublapsa- nan Calvinist," and adds, that he en- gaged in controversy, and published several writings, among them Disser- tations upon Gospel Salvation. His wife is said to have been dr. of Rev. William Williams, s. of Rev. William
Williams, of Hatfield. Her mother was dr. of Rev. Dr. Stoddard, of Northampton. The Rev. Jos. Buck- minster, D.D., of Portsmouth, N.H., (father of the Rev.
