Joseph was a Scissor Maker of Sheffield just like his father. It is assumed that Joseph the father of Maria was the son of Robert.  There are no other relevant Joseph's born in Sheffield.  His first son named Robert also would suggest Joseph's father was Robert.

By 1811, Joseph was listed in Bailey Street as a manufacturer of razors, scissors, and table knives.  He was apparently bankrupt in 1824, but Joseph Skidmore, Pond Street, traded in scissors and razors in the 1820s and early 1830s.  He died on 31 December 1835, aged 59, and was buried in St Peter’s churchyard.
