In the 1841 census Joseph was recorded in Newbury Union Workhouse and his occupation was an agricultural labourer. He was still in the Workhouse 10 years later in the 1851 census with an occupation of ostler recorded.
There is no trace of Joseph in the 1861 census. However, in 1861 a list of all inmates who had been living in Workhouses for over 5 years was compiled.

Unfortunately, no details of the accident are known, nothing was recorded in the local papers at the time.
