When King Philip's war broke out in 1675 the Brown farm, on a point extending into the marsh at the foot of Scottow's hill, was literally a frontier post and the buildings gs were eventually attacked and burned. On October 30, 1675, Capt. Scottow writes that Capt. John Wincoll and about sixty men went up from Black Point "to guard the house of Andrew [Joshua's father] Brown at Dunstan," and on November 4 Scottow directed Wincoll "to forthwith repair with all the town soldiers to the house of Andrew Brown, there to give war to the Indians." In the roster of the Black Point garrison, dated October, 1676, Andrew Brown and three of his sons were listed as living "three musket-shot from the garrison," but soon afterward he must have moved his family, except for the two eldest boys who remained on military duty, to Boston, where he addressed . . . a petition . . . to the General Court. Children: Andrew, Charles, Samuel, Mary, Hannah, Sarah, Ephraim. [ref 46:26,229] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | ||||||||||
