Dear Tali Thank you for your response. I believe that the Joseph you describe is likely the one I am seeking. I am curious about the comment that "It is clear that he served in the Revolutionary War". Was that part of the information from "Portage County Ohio Cemeteries, Vol. VIII" or is that your observation? Also, does this volume contain information on his war service? Once again, thank you so much for your reply. Joseph was previously my own "brick wall" and the pieces are beginning to come together quite well.
