But I may well have assigned the marriage and children to the wrong Joseph. There is a burial for a 67 year old Joseph in Meavy in who died 1850 (2 Aug) which would fit this Joseph - except that his father is shown as James on the gravestone!

Details from PR entry
Shows William Finnemore, aged 62, widower, laborer, abode 7 Tin Street, father Richard Finnemore, a Laborer married
Mary Knight, aged 54, no occupation given, abode 7 High Street, father Joseph Northmore, a Laborer.
Both made their marks, as did witness Sarah Northmore; other witness William Peter Henry White signed. Married by banns.
Separated Between 1871 and 1881 - Together at the time of the 1871 census, this marriage seems to have effectively ended sometime between then and the 1881 census. In the latter Mary is shown as married but is living in Plymouth with her unmarried daughter Emma, while William appears as a widower, in Devonport living with his daughter Fanny and her family. Although both died the same year their deaths were registered in different Registration Districts, Williams in Stoke Damerel (which included Devonport), Mary's in Plympton - perhaps she had moved after Emma married in 1883, or after Emma's death in 1886.
