Maybe it was supposed to be Hezekiah Borden instead of Josiah? I know it says Josiah, but there was a Perry David Borden who married in 1927 to Emma Somerville. He was a widower at the time. Did you see reference to the four brothers thanking the community for searching for their father?

Failing that, maybe Delancy Borden's first name began with "P"?
