R. 6163. SOURCE: "Men from Morris Co., NJ Who Served in The American Revolution", by Barbara Haskins. [Howard Johnston note: All evidence points to Joshua being born in Long Island, not Rhode Island. Not married to Elizabeth Dickerson. What is the significance of the "junior" following his name? Many times in this time period, Jr. did not mean his father had the same name, but was used to differentiate him from another relative with the same name -- possibly the Joshua Case [2nd cousin] who mar. Deliverance Wells.]
