  Birth	Abt 1760	Ellicott City, Anne Arundel County, Maryland
  Gender	Male
  Death	30 Sep 1811	Anne Arundel County, Maryland
  Notes	Marriage license data: Baltimore Co., Maryland Court (Marriage Licenses) 1778-1851, MSA CM174-1 Notes for JOSHUA EARP : Joshua took the Oath of Fidelity in 1778. (Wayne Ward) Joshua Earp, Sr. a planter was born about 1760, exact date unknown, and lived much of his life in the general vicinity of Ellicott City, now a suburb of Baltimore , Maryland. His great grandfather was Thomas Earp, the orginal immigrant, who came to the same area in the 1690's, and his grandfather and father were both named Joseph. In 1794, he sold the family property known as "Gosnell's Chance" near Ellicott City, and moved northwest to what was then part of Frederick County, Maryland where he purchased property near Westminster called "Ellory". In the early 1800s he returned to Anne Arundel County, Maryland and repurchased a formerly held family property known as "Yates Contrivance." Joshua Earp took the Oath of Fidelity during the Revolutionary War but, as far as is known, did not serve in the military. When Eleanor McKenzie Earp sold "Yates Contrivance" in 1835, her sons Joshua Jr. and William had already migrated West. They were the only two of her ten children who did not sign the land deed. Sometime therafter five of the other children also went to Ohio, apparently together, but did not join William's family. They were Eleanor, Elizabeth, Mary, Joseph and Daniel, who was still in Anne Arundel county in 1830. The Federal census of 1850 for Ohio shows them living together in Smith Township, Mahoning County, Ohio. No further record was found of the family group in the subsequent Federal Census records of Ohio, so they may have moved to another state. The Carroll County, Ohio Earp's heads of family were born in England, and were not related to the Maryland Earps ("The Joshua Earp Family of Maryland, Kentucky and Ohio" by Charles Albert Earp and Irmalee Earp Williams, 1990 6 p.)
