According to a granddaughter of brother, Adelbert, Joshua Charles Gunn went to Chippewa County, Wisconsin, with brother Adelbert. Married a sister of Adelbert's wife (?), divorced and left the area and nothing more was heard from him that anyone in the family knew about.

At the time of the 1870 census, Joshua is living with his grandparents, Noble King and Esther Gunn, in Gale, Trempealeau County, Wisconsin. His 2 younger siblings are also living there. "United States Census, 1870," FamilySearch [1]
