Note: Joseph was a carpenter in Morris county. The house built he built on Lee's Hill Road is still standing has changed little over the years, according to Dorothy Adey, Corresponding Secretary for Harding Township Historical Society, Morris county, New Jersey in 1983. Joseph deeded the house to his son, Abner in 1804, and Abner deed it to his son, Barton in 1817. Barton went to Ohio, and in 1818 deeded it to his brother Ephraim who deeded it to his wife Girtrude, and she to son John 1 Aug 1872. That year John sold it. Tradition says a map shows a cemetery on the property, but since the early 1900's nothing is know about this. Mrs. Adney believes this could be true since the graves of Joseph, Abner and their wives have never been located.
