Per several sources: it is possible Joshua died before 1782. He is recorded as having been a prisoner on a British ship in New York Harbor. His widow married her second husband in 1781. One source says 1776 for his death. One other says that perhaps 1782 was chosen bc that was when the estate was settled.
