Individual:
From: Vol. II, Annals of W.T., pp. 44-46:
His marriage to Alice Sessetom, daughter of the Sachem of Sanchacantacket is
one of the romances of our history and serves to mark him as one who ignored
the conventionalities of society in choosing an Indian princess for
his bride.
He was the youngest son, of his father (John) and was placed upon the farm
as soon as he became old enough to attend to business affairs, probably
about 1667, when he was twenty years of age, and that he made it his home,
and here married his Indian wife. He had long been in litigation with Mayhew
had driven the father away from the island, and in that year he had taken a
second wife at Plymouth, and ever after that resided there, and died in that
town. In so far as a guess is of value, Joseph Daggett was the first white man
to reside in the present limits of Oak Bluffs, and here, in all probability, his
half breed children were born, Alice, Hester, and Joseph. He remained here
until about 1673, when he removed to the new settlement at Takemmy (West
Tisbury.)
(This marriage with an Indian gave rise to the name of "The
Bow and Arrow Daggetts" which was given to this branch) It certainly
placed him in an anomalous social position and although his father gave
him an equal share by will, evidence is not wanting to indicate that there
was little affiliation between the descendants of the two branches of this family
for many years. His estate was administered in Aug. 1718.
He was a wheelwright by trade.
