Son of William Alsup and Susannah Hill. Brother of Asaph Alsup and William "Buck" Alsup.

On 25 Jan 1812, a Wilson County TN property transfer consisting of 109 acres on Hurricane Creek made by William Nash of Rutherford County to Joseph Alsup and Asaph Alsup was recorded in Deed Book K, pp 459-60.

By 1830, the Wilson County tax roll indicates that Joseph Alsup held 285 acres in Captain Lannom's Company, as did William (280 acres), Richard (225 acres), and William H Alsup (149 acres). Asaph and Samuel J. Alsup were also enumerated, but without acreage listed.
