I am looking for the birth of Joshua Parrish b. 11/20/1770.
I think the record will be in the Gunpowder Meeting for the area of Joppatown, Maryland. I think his parents are Joseph parrish and Charity Bosley since they were married in 1768. Any way to get this record of birth/baptism?
His parents:
Joseph Parrish
"Born about 1724, he was of age in 1745. He married Cassandra Talbot on 08/28/1753. (Ref. St. John's and St. George parish Records, p. 208.) Joseph was disowned by the Gunpowder Meeting of Friends for marrying out of meeting. Reinstated 22da. 1 mo., 1755 after acknowledgement. Cassandra died in Baltimore Co., Maryland. Joseph Parrish remarried to Charity Bosley. (Ref. Joppa Episcopal Parish, p. 260.)"Quoted from Scott Lee Boyd Book 'The Parrish Family" on page 32.
