Yearbry, Joseph
fl. 1772-1774

A shadowy figure of whom little is known. He sailed for America in 1772 with Thomas Rankin and George Shadford. Although he was only a local preacher, he was stationed in Baltimore. He returned home in 1774, defraying the cost of his passage by selling broadcloth he had brought from England. He then disappears from the records.
