IF this is the couple in 1880 Hillsboro Township Montgomery Illinois then Joseph was born Indiana in 1830.

There are probably other threads going way back about him, but I'm awful at linking it and doing things like that, especially now my eyesight is so poor. He was born 1830 in Plymouth and was on the 1841 with his family in Lambhay Hill. He went into the merchant service and I think I have him in 1851 ,but can't remember.
Joseph Melluish Andrews is his full name. Parents Mary and Richard
