BIOGRAPHY: Malachi-3 (Benjamin-2, Robert-1) Bullard, born in Sherborn in 1656, acquired Lot N o. 37, East Section, granted to Thomas Wight, Sr., through his wife Bethiah Wight of Medfield . Malachi married Bethiah in 1708. In 1721, Hopestill Leland of Sherborn sold the south half of Lot No. 36 to his heirs for 25 p ounds. This gave him a lot and a half containing 241 acres. A part of this land continued i n the Bullard family as a farm until 1885. When Malachi Bullard settled here, he had no neighbors within a distance of a mile or more. Coffee Street, called in 1735 "The way to the Meeting House" went along the south border of h is farm. He served as Selectman three years. He died in 1726, aged only 40 years, and when his sons became of age, his large farm was divi ded. His widow outlived him by thirty years, dying in 1756. BIOGRAPHY: Note: Coffee Street, part of the old "Way to the Meeting House" crossed what is no w Main Street and Oakland Street, and went up to Stoney Plain by a now-abandoned Cedar Street . It intersected the present Farm Street in Millis at the original Putnam Clark place, now go ne. This accounts for the sharp turn of Farm Street on Stoney Plain; this was where Farm Street i ntersected Cedar Street. BIOGRAPHY: http://www.medwaylib.org/EarlySettlers.htm
