Charles Josias Wampatuck

Charles Josias Wampatuck (died after 1695) was a sachem of the Massachusett tribe in the late 17th century.

[3] Wampatuck served as sachem of the Massachusetts tribe until his death in 1669.

[citation needed] After Wompatuck's death, Charles was a minor so a regent acted on his behalf until he came of age.

[4] In 1684 and 1685, Charles Josiah Wampatuck signed various deeds and confirmatory deeds affirming his grandfather's transfer of Boston, Stoughton, Dedham, Mansfield, Norton, and other areas to the colonists decades earlier.

[5][6][7] A deed dated 1686–87 relinquished title of Conhassett lands, present-day Scituate, Massachusetts, was signed "Josias Wampatuck, son and heir to Josias Wampatuck," and he was paid £14.
