The Otis family is a Boston Brahmin family from Massachusetts best known for its involvement in early American politics. Originally landowning farmers of Glastonbury, Somerset, the Otises went to New England during the Puritan migration of the 1630's settling first in Hingham before finally moving to Barnstable. It was there that John Otis built a homestead that served many members of the family for generations. Although not much is known about John Otis, his son, John Otis (generally referred to as "Judge Otis") was the first of the family to rise to provincial eminence. Judge Otis held a variety of judicial and military appointments and represented Barnstable County for twenty successive years in the general court of Massachusetts Bay.
