Suzie, Joseph had a son, Joseph, who was born in 1751. He is probably the other Joseph. the Joseph listed is a Sergeant and Nathan is a Private. I was told that Joseph was in the 4th Ulster and all I know is that he was a Pvt. So, this is probably not the record of the father, Joseph. I'll keep hunting....Thanks.
