They had a daughter who also married and lived there,but do not know her name. They moved from Michigan and lived in Illinois ,but After Joshua died in Clark Co. IL in 1866,. I was told his widow Elizabeth moved back to Michigan to live with her daughter in your area.. dying in April, 1886. Does any one know where Elizabeth is buried and anything about a daughter? maybe from an obituary?and/or anything else about this family?
