John Tisdale was murdered by Indians in King Phillip's War. His will was administered 1 November, 1676, but was not settled until 1677, the eldest son taking a double portion, and the residue being equally divided among the sons and daughters.
Joseph got left the house but as the Indians burned it I'm not sure what was settled on.
