The Gelpke account has Joseph's death as 13, October 1739.

The following is from "Isaac Esty And Some Of His Descendants" by Gay Esty Bangs

Joseph was raised in Topfield MA. He was a surveyor of highways in 1683. About 1705, he moved with his family to a new settlement in Dorchester, that part is now known as Stoughton. His name appears with that of his brother Benjamin as one of the signers of the original covenant of the church of which Rev. John Davenport was minister. In 1706 he obtained land of the Indians, some of which is now located in the town of Canton. In 1712 he conveyed seventy acres to his son Joseph Jr..

The Karl Gelpke book has Jane's maiden name as Stewart and family legend claims
that this line goes back to the English Royal House of Stewart.
