Genealogies of the Families and Descendants of the Early Settlers of Watertown, Massachusetts, Including Waltham and Weston (1855), p. 690; Source:Pierce, Frederick Clifton. Forbes and Forbush Genealogy, p. 25) say that Joseph m. 1731 Thankful Forbush, which one would suppose is impossible given his death in 1729. A note in NEHGR, Vol. 64, p. 185, shows it was his brother James who married Thankful, not Joseph.
