BATCHELLER. BATCHELLOR.
1. JOSEPH BATCHELLER came to this country from Canterbury, Eng., in 1636, with his w. Elizabeth, one child, and three servants, and settled in that part of Salem now known as Wenham, in Essex Co., Mass. His bro. Henry and family and his bro. John accompanied him. The records of the Huguenot parish of Canterbury, recently published, preserve significant evidence that Joseph Batcheller by descent and kinship was closely identified with the Huguenot people. His ch. were : (1) Mark, slain by the Indians, Dec. 15, 1675 ; (2) John ; (3) Elizabeth, m. James Davis ; (4) Hannah, b. 1644, m. John Mariner, April, 1665 ; (5) Joseph, bap. Aug. 22, 1647, d. 1699.

this country, was one of the original members of the church in Wenham, organized Oct. 8, 1644. He was the first representative of Wenham in the Gen. Court, in 1644 (2 N. H. Hist. Soc., 215). In respect to the date of the death of Joseph Batcheller, the histories of Grafton and Sutton are in error. The church record seems to establish that his de- cease occurred as is stated in the following extract : In the record of a case of church discipline, under date of 11 of the 8 mo., 1647, occurs this passage (p. 84, Wenham Church Records) : "In ye mesne space it pleased God to take to himself our brother Batchel., a man wise, mod- erate, and very able to be helpful in such cases." Says another authority : "He was a prominent and useful man in the plantation " (Hist. of Wenham, pp. 28, 29). He d. in Wenham, March, 1647 (O. S.).
