Child of Nicholas Wilbore, "born probably in Braintree".
The author names him Joseph and says he is named as such in his brother William's 1613 will (and as deceased). However, every mention of him in the transcription of his father's will calls him Josua or Joshua. Married Mary who survived him.
He inherited "Hollis Grove" (situated partly in Braintree and partly in Bocking) from his father.
