Joseph was naturalized in Spencer County, Indiana on September 12, 1856. According to this document, he was a native of Byram (Bavaria) and owed allegiance to Ludwig. Joseph and Barbara were married in 1857, and had 7 children. The youngest, "Carrie" was killed in the Troy train wreck in 1891. Joseph is seen on the 1900 Federal Census of Spencer County living with his son, Joseph M. and family. He died in 1903 at the age of 70.
