Alexander Quapish

[2][3][1][4] He moved to Dedham, Massachusetts and married Sarah David, a Christian indigenous woman from that community in 1767, having filed his intention to do so on October 27.

[5] His name appears on both the August and October rolls of the company, and an order for a bounty coat was dated Prospect Hill on 22 December 1775.

[5] In November 1775, Quabish became ill.[2] He was taken to the Needham Leg[c] home of 14-year-old Michael Bacon, with whom he camped in Cambridge during the Battle of Bunker Hill.

[7] In 1856, Quapish was disintered from Dedham by Henry Jacob Bigelow of the Warren Anatomical Museum at the Harvard School of Medicine.

"[1] In 1990, the Congress passed the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) and Quapish's remains were turned over to the federal government.

[6] In December 2020, members of the Mashpee Wampanoag and Nipmuc Nations led a ceremony in which Quapish's remains were reburied in the Pond Street Burial Ground.

[7][10] In 2010, the National Park Service shared a YouTube video, narrated by students from the Clarence R. Edwards Middle School, telling Quapish's story.
