Son of Andrew Jackson Pettit and Esther Cochran
Joseph Andrew Pettit died from a gunshot wound. He was killed during an altercation on his farm near White Rocks on the Ute Indian Reservation near Vernal Utah. Pettit threatened two other men who came to his home with a cocked double barreled shotgun. One of the two men had a rifle, and Joseph Pettit and the man fired at each other almost simultaneously. Pettit was killed with a bullet to the head. It appears that Pettit married charity Phillips, a widow with five children, shortly before his death, but that is no information that they had any children.
