Robert, I do have a Joeph, b. 1770 (maybe the same one married to Lucy Spencer) who in 1850 lived in Malta with wife, Anna and had Sally, and Joseph A. Brown, b. 1825. I wonder if this is the same as your Joseph? This one was born in CT..and there is the possibility that Wright Brown could have had kids born in CT. I will go back and check those census reports.
