Born 1710 or 1711. The son of Joseph and Hannah (Gossling)Endicott. He married Ann Gillam May 12, 1736 in Burlington Co, NJ. In marrying Ann, Joseph angered his father because she was a Quaker. He received only 5 shillings for his inheritance - "I say 5 shillings and no more" were the words of his father for marrying "out of meeting". Joseph's ggf was Gov John Endecott, the same who ordered the execution of Mary Dyer because she WAS a Quaker. Puritans did not tolerate Quakers and in the 1600's many were banished from Massachusetts to Rhode Island.
