Joseph was a member of the Presbyterian Church in Newtown in 1708. The Mercy Sackett listed as a member sometime between 1708 and 1724 was presumably his wife.
On 23 April 1711, Captain Joseph "for the love, goodwill, and affection for my beloved son" gave to his son Simon 288 acres of land in Hopewell, bordering on the Delaware River. Joseph made his will in Newtown, Queens County, on 20 September 1719, naming as beneficiaries his wife Mercy, his sons Samuel, Joseph, Richard, John and William, his daughters Sarah, Patience, Abigail and Anne, and the children of his late daughter Elizabeth. The will was proved on 22 December 1719. He left specified lands in Newtown to each of his children, and land in Hopewell and Maidenhead, New Jersey, to his children jointly, his eldest son Joseph to have a double share. He left his mansion, with its adjoining garden, orchards, and lands, to his youngest son Samuel.
