Joseph was born in Pennsylvania and traveled with his parents to Maryland and then to Franklin Co., VA. He probably married sometime around 1785. Once he settled in Franklin Co., he remained there for the rest of his life, dying in 1841. By all accounts, he was a successful farmer, owning between 1000 and 1500 acres of land.
