He married and had kids in Littlestown PA and in Gettysburg, PA. One of Joshua's sons in Springhills, Chamrpaign, OH passed down the story of the five or seven brothers from Ireland. They came to that area of OH because "relatives" lived there. That's all anyone knows... Amy Hutton Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
