Jospeh N. Hitch's birth date comes from an old 1806 Artihmatic Book of his that was shared with this compiler by Elinore Mowbray. Joseph is probably the male listed in his father Louther's household in 1810 as age 16-26 and 1820 as age 16-26 (would narrow his birth year to 1793/94). Information and historical documents (school book) discovered by descendant Elinor Mowbray give his birth as October 10, 1794, making him a twin to his sister Mary Hitch. The middle initial of his name MIGHT stand for NICHOLSON, the maiden name of his grandmother, Isabell Hitch.
Joseph Hitch witnessed the will of Roger Brown in 1826, he the future father-in-law of Rosanna (Dalrymple) Hitch.
