Note: "The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 12, No 36, p 143, Feb. 14, 1856. In Little Genesee, N. Y., Jan. 28th, Joseph Maxson, in the 85th year of his age. The deceased was one of the earliest settlers of the community in which he lived, and was held in high esteem by all who knew him. The 1st Seventh-day Baptist Church of Genesee was constituted in his house, and he was one of the first, if not the very first, to affix his name to the Covenant and Articles upon which it was founded. From the beginning, he was one of the pillars, and the prayers of his declining days were for its welfare. Owing to enfeebled health, he had not been able to appear in the sanctuary for the last two or three years; but, after suffering his appointed time, his spirit was quietly dismissed from the earthly house of this tabernacle to dwell with the spirits of just men made perfect.
