Birth, Parent-Proof, Designation notes for Joseph (Spouse 1)
It is the fact that he lived in Henry County, IN in 1840 where Conrad was last seen in 1830 and his age that makes it seem like he was Conrad’s son.
Moreover, his marriage, in Butler County, OH, strengthens that conclusion as well as reinforces the idea that we have correctly tracked this family as they moved from place to place.
He is designated N1a3.
