Joseph Eyre was a Sea Captain and spent his active life in his vocation. He made frequent voyages to England, and was in China a number of times, from whence he brought many treasured relics.
He was twice around the Cape of Good Hope, and was in California during the gold fever of '49. He was once shipwrecked, in which his Bible was the only thing saved. A granddaughter has this
among her treasures. His wife was Elizabeth Brown of Newtown, Penna., where the family resided. The had three children.
