He was a malster (brewer) as was his father. He was a selectman of Braintree for several years.

Joseph had a son Joseph (Adams 12) who married second Hannah Bass (daughter of John and Ruth (Alden) Bass) and by her had son John (Adams 29) who married Susannah Boylston and their son John became the second President of the United States.
