Joseph, lived unm. in Brooklyn. Nothing clear. Was this the man crushed in doing his duty by the falling of a chimney on him at the Ocean Mills Fire, 208 Fulton St., N. Y., Feb. 8, 1861, and buried in Greenwood with all the honors of the Fire Department for heroism? Newspapers of the time glow with praise of him, but is this the Joseph? Who knows?
