Hi Jim!!! I think I found your Joshua within the Webb/Boone line.If I have
this right,your Joshua would have been a son to Samuel Webb 1740,one of the
sons born to John Webb and Mary Boone.
I sent you a private email which contains info.from Samuel's Will.Among the
names listed there,you will find the siblings,plus some,that you mention
here.
Good luck!!!
Diane aka Diana Webb Evans
