    Notes 
    • Joel was an early settler of LeRoy, Bradford Co., PA about 1796 and about 1801 settled in Geneseo, Livingston Co., NY. He then moved to Granger, Allegany Co., NY where he was Deputy Sheriff and skilled detective. "He was a tall and muscular man, standing 6' 2" high" In Hickory Swale, Granger he kept a hotel for many years.

    • An example of one of Joel's detective works is found in an 1831 paper in Maryland:
      Mrs. Chapman was brought to this city on Saturday evening by the Sheriff of Bucks, and has been since conveyed to Doylestown. When taken, she was [lodging] in the house of a Mr. Newton, at North East, in Erie county, Pennsylvania. The person who found her was Joel Bardwell, of Grove, Allegany county, New York, one of the agents employed by our High Constable Blayney. He traced her from Groton, through the western part of New York, to the place where she was discovered.—Phil. Sen.
