Notes
Note
Occupation was ship's carpenter on baptismal records for 3 children. The Joseph Burchill in Davenport, found in city directories up until 1867 (although the later entries could have been for his son Joseph), was a carpenter.
Public Library indexes have an obituary for Joseph Burchill dated 1866, and he is in their probate records for 1866.
According to his son George's biography and obituary, Joseph was born in Ireland, but Joseph said New Brunswick in the 1860 census - perhaps George had his parents' places of birth mixed up.

Citing this Record "United States Census, 1860," index, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/M82Y-DG5 : accessed 29 Apr 2014), Joseph Burchill, The City Of Davenport, Scott, Iowa, United States; citing "1860 U.S. Federal Census - Population," Fold3.com; p. 287, household ID 2403, NARA microfilm publication M653; FHL microfilm 803340.
It seems likely that Joseph remarried after the death of his first wife, Ann Abbott:
There was a marriage, in 1864:
Name: Joseph Burchell
Marriage Date: 12 Nov 1864
Marriage Place: Davenport, Scott, IA
Spouse: Ann Yarwood
FHL Film Number: 1686223
Reference ID: 2:39N6GLQ
That would explain Ann Abbott's gravestone, which said she died in 1856, and Joseph having a widow Ann at the time of his death.
