It's possible that data from two different individuals are mixed here.

Joseph and Mary went to Pennsylvania from Rhode Island in 1829 and settled in Sullivan Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania in 1836. Before then they lived in Smithfield and Columbia Townships in Bradford County, and Rutland Township in Tioga County.

He contracted for four adjoining tracts of land totaling about 146 acres 58 perches in Sullivan Township, receiving deeds for acreages when full payment was made. He was a farmer.
