Notes
Joseph, with his brothers William and Ivory, walked from Maine to Steuben Co., NY on their way to Ohio. At BVath they found some friends from Maine and decided to locate on Bonny Hill, near Thruston, where William soon died. Joseph had learned the blacksmith's trade in Maine, and in addition to working at his trade, he cleared and worked a piece of land. It is said of him that "he had a big nose and a jovial, kindly disposition. He loved to play harmlessjokes, but he was sincere and upright in character, unrefined but generous, industrious and of excellent habits." The first of the Colcords to come to America was Edward, who came to Portsmouth, New Hampshire from Hampshire County, England about 1631. He married Ann Page. Their descendants lived in New Hampshire and adjacent states.
