Born in Kingwood in 1780; in his youth learned the carpenter's trade with his brother Richard, and followed both farming and carpentering. His father Esq. Richard gave him a small farm near Frenchtown, which is now owned by S. R. Opdycke. Joshua sold this farm, bought another near his father's, and built a house upon it; this was afterwards known as the Seth F. Rose property. Joshua later owned a farm on the Delaware' River two miles south of Frenchtown, now the property of Mr. Lantz. The Hunterdon Co. Records show his marriage in 1804 to "Mollie Wolverton, of Amwell;" and in 1818 to "widow Catherine Fancanpam (Van Camp) of Alexandria, daughter of Mr. Mettler." Joshua was a man of well-balanced mind; very tall and muscular, and the jolliest of the nine brothers; was a Democrat in politics. Travelled frequently, and spent some time in the States of Georgia, New York, and Ohio. Died 1854 at the house of his son-in-law, John Vandolah, near Sandy Ridge in Hunterdon. Was buried at Rosemont by the side of his first wife; his second wife was buried at Milford, N. J.
