TOWN CLERKS, 1662-1887.
The records of the town for eight years after incorporation are very imperfect ; but, as the first entries are in the handwrit- ing of Robert Tucker, the presumption is that he was the first Town Recorder.
The answer of the General Court to the petition for incor- poration bearing date of May 7, 1662, is recorded by " Robert Tucker, Recorder of Milton."
227

TOWN TREASURERS, 1704-5-1887.
The revenues of the town were collected by the Constables and disbursed by the Selectmen, for forty-three years after its corporate existence.

The records contain no further reference to Town Treasurer for the long period of twenty-eight years.
March 12th, 1733. Mr. George Badcock was chose Town Treasurer.
Dec. 20th, 1733. It was put to vote to the Town whether they would reconsider the vote of the choice of Mr. George Badcock to be Town Treas- urer, he being infirm and unable to serve in that office, and it passed in the affirmative.
It was voted that the Selectmen succeed Mr. Badcock that was chosen Town Treasurer, and do the work his office obliged him to do.
The records show no further action with regard to Town Treasurer until 1739.
