- William Joseph (governor)
William Joseph was the proprietary governor of the Maryland colony from 1688 to 1689. He was appointed by the colony's proprietor, Charles Calvert, 3rd Baron Baltimore, but soon after was removed from his position when Charles Calvert, who was Roman Catholic, was removed as proprietor during England's Glorious Revolution, which restored a protestant king to the British throne. He was succeeded by John Coode, leader of a group known as the Protestant Associators.
