Joseph Field (1772–1807) was born in 1772 in Culpeper County, Virginia.
They were born and raised in Virginia until they moved at an early age to Kentucky and were considered to be part of the "nine young men from Kentucky" in the Lewis and Clark Expedition which they joined on August 1, 1803.
Joseph is thought to have died sometime between June 27 and October 20, 1807.
For a brief period, Joseph Field was employed by the Bullitt's Lick salt business, and because of this expertise, he was able to support the expedition.
