Joseph lived on No. 36, which he bought of Martin Kellogg in 1710; was in the Meadow fight 1704; we find under date of Nov. 27. 1734, "a petition of Joseph Severance of Deerfield showing that about 21 years ago he was wounded by the Indian enemy, being a soldier in the service of the Province & has been a cripple ever since & like to be so till his death, and forasmuch he has never had anything from this Grov't for his support. Therefore praying for some allowance from this Court m consideration of his
wounds & his Disability therby." As a compensation the GeneralCourt granted him in 1735, 200 acres east of Northfield, bounded "South on a mountain called Grace;" corporal under Capt. Jos. Kellogg in 1723; clerk of Kellogg's co. 1747; selectman 1722.
