Census records indicate that Joshua was born in June or July of 1823. ((According to 1850 census records, Joshua was 26 years old as of 1.June.1860. According to 1860 census mortality schedules, Joshua died in July of 1859 at age 37. These records are consistent if Joshua was born in 1823, sometime after June 1 and sometime before the end of July.)).
