Notes
General:
Josiah and his wife Abigail died one week apart. Their cause of death is not stated on the record, however contagion is quite possible. Smallpox was the most persistant plague of that time.

Josiah died intestate but an inventory of his estate was taken and is on file at the Essex County Probate Court. Ironware and tools, pewter and brass, earthenware, wooden wears, bedding, wearing clothes, wearing linens, Linen cloth and flax, woolen cloth and sheep's wool, trooping arms and house furniture, stock of cattle, sheep and hay, swine, Indian corn and barley in the straw, timber boards and clapboards, a grinding stone, books, a perywig, tobacco and flaxseed, butter and cheese, leather. His estate was worth 79 pounds. 4
