Jonathan was born in Billerica, July 14, 1672. He married, June 3, 1694, Elizabeth Giles, daughter of John and Elizabeth Giles of Beverly, who was born in 1671. She died Dec. 16, 1738. He married second, Sept. 22, 1739, Elizabeth Wyman, widow of Benjamin Wyman of Woburn and daughter of Nathaniel and Mary (Prentice) Hancock. She died Mar. 3, 1748, aged sixty-three years. He died in Bedford, Jan. 12, 1754.

Jonathan Bacon was a man of prominence in the town. In 1699 he was licensed by the selectmen to sell victuals and drink. He was proprietor of the mill on the Shawsheen River. Billerica had a large lot of common land which was approtioned at different times among the early settlers. Those inhabitants who came in at a later date and settled in the outlying part, which was made Bedford, while they paid in their portion of charges yet they had not shared in the allotment. Accordingly on Nov. 16, 1705, it was ordered: "That Capt. John Lane, Jonathan Bacon, John Wilson and other, the Petitioners, that are Freeholders & Inhabitants of the sd Town of Billerica, be Intitled to and have a proportionable share with others the Commoners, Proprietors & Inhabitants of the sd Town in all future Divisions of all undivided and waste lands belonging to the sd Town according to their Proportion to the Town charges for the space of seven years past."

In 1707 he served under Major Lane in the Indian wars. In 1710 Jonathan and his brother Josiah protested against the vote of the town regarding the flowage of a meadow by a milldam which had been constructed. When, in 1722, the town assigned the schoolmaster to different sections of the town, he was assigned to Jonathan Bacon for one month. In 1726 he represented the town at the "Great and General Court." He also was selectman in 1719 and 1727. The town of Bedford was incorporated Sept. 23, 1729. The expenses of forming the new town were anticipated by the inhabitants as we find by the records an account of money and land given for the encouragement of the new town. By these records we find that Jonathan Bacon was credited with a gift of money. The records of the town open with the following vote:

"In Council, Sept. 26, 1729, voted that Mr. Jonathan Bacon, a principal Inhabitant of the Town of Bedford bee and here by is fully Impowered and Directed To assemble the Freeholders and other Inhabitants of the Town to convene as soon as may be to elect and choose Town officers to stand until the next anniversary meeting in March.

Under this vote a meeting was held Oct. 6, 1729, and Jonathan Bacon was elected moderator, also selectman and hog reeve. Isreal Putnam, who married a daughter of Jonathan Bacon and who gave land for the encouragement of the town, was at this meeting elected a constable. Jonathan Bacon was allowed for his services in perfecting the town the sum of £8 8s 3d. Jonathan Bacon was one of the foundation members of the church. In 1730 when the church was organized Israel Putnam was chosen a deacon. Jonathan Bacon in his will dated Feb. 20, 1752, speaks of his son Jonathan, also children of his son Jonathan desceased.
