On 7 Nov 1754, he sold his interest in his father's estate, and also his interest in the portion of two young brothers and a sister all lately deceased to his brother Samuel Nash of Braintree. Nathaniel Blanchard of North Yarmouth, sold Joseph (they were brothers-in-law, Blanchard having married Hannah Shaw in Weymouth in 1726) of North Yarmouth, 15 SEP 1758, for 40 Pounds, land in North Yarmouth adjoining where John Farrow then dwelt.
