Maiden name unknown

Most online trees identify her as Rosanna Weeks, daughter of Ezekiel Weeks and Deliverance Shaw. However, there is no evidence that they had a daughter named Rosanna, and the only original source I could find implied they had only 2 children, Ezekiel and Sarah (although it is possible that the deponents were unaware of one or more older children). Sarah Weeks married an Aaron Cox (usually identified as someone older than Joseph and Rosanna's son Aaron), which might have resulted in conflation of individuals and marriages.

A couple of trees identify her as Rosanna Warner, with no evidence.

  2. Birth year estimated based on estimated birth years of her children. Note that if she had children by a subsequent marriage after Joseph died, then she was likely born as late as 1730, and her children's birth years would have to be re-estimated. At least one tree suggests that Benjamin and Sarah Batchelor were her children. However, she does not identify any relationship to them in her will, which she does for all 3 Cox children mentioned, so it seems unlikely that they were her children.
