Job Winslow resided in Swansey, and afterwards Freetown. "At the
breaking out of the Indian War, June 1675, his house in Swansey, which he
had inhabited eight or nine years, was burnt by the enemy." He was one
of the selectmen of Freetown in 1686; Town Clerk in 1690; deputy to the
Plymouth General Court in 1686, and representative in 1692 at the first
General Court in MA under the new charter. He was a shipwright, and
probably wrought at his handicraft on the bank of the Assonet. His
children, arranged in the order in which all their names, except that of
Mary, stand in his will. dated 12 November 1717.
