Description: Joseph Emerson attended Harvard College and taught in Framingham, Mass., until his call in 1803 to the pulpit in Beverly. In 1816, he resigned this position because of ill health, and subsequently taught and/or served churches in Byfield and Saugus, Mass., and Wethersfield, Conn. He took two long visits to Charleston, S.C. This biography, by his brother, concludes with a genealogical survey of the Emerson family.
