OBITUARY: The Manti Messenger, Friday 3 December 1909:
Joshua Fielding was born in Lancashire, Engl. In 1837. He came to Utah in 1854, living in Salt Lake until 1858 when he moved to Springville and where he married Juliet Wimmer. He moved from there to Glenwood, Sevier county from which place he came to Manti, nineteen years ago.

In the early days he took quite an active part in the Indian war in both this and Utah county. He was also one of the company who resisted Johnson's army in Echo canyon.
He died at his home in this city Monday morning from congestion of blood vessels near the heart. He had been ill for four weeks.
His wife, two sisters, four daughters and three sons survive him. The funeral was held at the Tabernacle Tuesday.
