Joshua, eldest child of James and Mary (Boulter) Prescott, was born March 1, 1669. There is no record of his death or marriage or the name of his wife, and the names of only part of his children are known. He removed for Hampton Falls to Kingston as early as 1725, as he was one of the members of the church when first gathered or organized there, September 29, 1725. His name appears as that of an inhabitant of Hampton Falls in 1722. In 1727 he and his son Nathan are found to be inhabitants of Kingston. He resided a part if not all of the time after leaving Hampton Falls in that part of Kingston which since 1738 has constituted the town of East Kinston. Family tradition says that he did not marry until thirty-eight or forty years of age, which the date of his children seems to confirm.
