Descendants of Joel Saxon
Generation No. 1
1. JOEL2 SAXON (UNKNOWN1) was born Abt. 1820 in England. He married MARY. She was born Abt. 1835 in PA.
Notes for JOEL SAXON:
I feel that Joel may have had a first wife because the ages of Mark, Neemis ? and young Mary are too old for wife Mary to have been their mother (slight possibility that she could have been Mary's mother but that would make her the age of 14 when she gave birth - possible, but not likely).

The First Methodist Episcopal Church of Blossburg may be said to be the successor of the First Wesleyan Methodist Episcopal church of Blossburg, incorporated June 2,1864, with Samuel Kendrick, Elisha L.
