    Notes:

    Nothing is known about the date or place of his birth. He first appears to have settled in Gouldsboro,Maine sometime before 1760. He subsequently lived in Steuben and then Cherryfield. In Cherryfield he lived in a house on the East side of the Narraguagus River and was very active in the then Plantation #11 affairs. For a time he operated a sawmill on the Narraguagus River. He had a settler's right in Plantation # 11 and subsequently purchased and sold sizeable pieces of land. A land record of 1792 refers to him as the moderator of a Town Meeting held in his house and town records refer to a school being held in one room of his house. He served twice in the American Revolution, first in 1775 for four months for defense of the seacoast and again in 1779 for one month,marching to Majorbagaduce (Castine) and the Battle of Penobscot. He did not leave a will, and his last deed of record was dated at Cherryfield in 1796. The surname of his wife, Susanna, is not known but Perley Leighton believes it to be Leighton. It is the opinion of one descendant, Allen L. Sproul, that Josiah and his wife moved to Lubec where they both died.
