Biography

Josiah was born in 1797.^[1]

We believe Amaril was "Amarold" in a census she was in. This makes sense because we have had a really hard time finding her until I found her grave. On the same plot was a Mary A. Wallace married to Lyman Wallace. We believe Mary was Amaril's sister. Lyman appears to be from different Wallace lines. The Wallace and McIntire families were quite "married" with each other through the generations in Phippsburg, Maine USA.^[2]

Served in Capt. Isaac Hodson's Co. 33 US Infantry in War of 1812

He died in 1879.^[3]
