Note	BIRTH: Barbour Collection of Woodbry Vital Records, FHL book 974.6 V2wL, vo. 53, p. 139. "Joshua son Samuel and Sarah Church b. May 16, 1744, (Woodbury V.R. 1:9) Original Records at the Town Clerk’s Office, Connecticut, Births, Marriages and Deaths, Vol. 1 p. 9: "Joshua ye son of Samuel Church by his wife Sarah was b. May ye 16th, 1744.” Since he and his brother Samuel were both given the birth date of April 6, 1744 in the Barbour Collection of Woodbury Vital Records, Vol. 53, pp. 139-140, there is some confusion. However Joshua's birth is recorded in Vital Records Vol. 1, p. 9 and Samuel's in Vol. 8, p. 290. Not only that, but Joshua is given two birth dates in the transcribed Town of Woodbury Births, Marriages and Deaths: April 6, 1744 on page 48 and May 15, 1744 on p. 49. The date herein recorded for Joshua is confirmed in Congregational Church records at baptism which was on April 8, 1744. Bethlehem Congregational Church Records, Vol. 1, p. 13: "Joshua son of Samuel Church baptized April 8, 1744." The year is apparently correct because his age at death was 57 on March 8, 1802." (Congregational Church Records of Bethlehem Connecticut, Vol. 2, p. 11, "Capt. Joshua Church died age 57.”) Named in his father’s probate June 19, 1761.(Congregational Church Records of Bethlehem Connecticut, Vol. 2, p. 11, "Capt. Joshua Church died age 57.”) Named in his father’s probate June 19, 1761. BIRTH: Derived from death information DEATH: Bethlehem Congregational Church Records, Vol. 2., p. 11: "Capt. Joshua Church died age 57 March 8, 1802." (FHL film 3803, item 2, p. 11.) Hale records his burial: Church, Capt. Joshua, died Mar. 5, 1802, age 56 (or 58)." ORDINANCES: FHL film 456235.
