Narrative
A death notice for Joseph from: Mary Jane Mains, compiler, Newspaper Accounts of Births, Marriages and Deaths, 1808-1929 (not all inclusive), Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania (Greensburg: Westmoreland County Historical Society, 1994):
KIEL, Joseph W. s/o Henry & Sarah of this borough d Mon. 24th inst. aged
4 yrs. 3 mo. 10 days (12-28-1838 RF)
Note: this differs from the date of death recorded in his family's Bible, which says Dec 24, 1839. I believe the family record is incorrect, perhaps recorded by a distraught mother in January 1839.
