General Notes:
The 'Old Meeting House' was built in 1726 for the Independents to use. In 1792 a schism split the members, and a number left to form their own church in Church Street (it was at this point the building became known as the 'Old Meeting House'). From 1844 to 1876 the building was used to house Buckingham's British School, and for a period up until 1916 the Salvation Army used it as their citadel. Subsequently the building has been used for a number of different purposes, the last of which was as a garage. Presently the building is disused.
Joshua married Catherine Goode, daughter of Thomas Goode and Catherine, on 26 Jan 1776 in Gawcott, Bucks. (Catherine Goode was born on 12 May 1751 in St Luke, Finsbury, Islington, Middlesex, England and died on 9 Dec 1820.)
