Josias Deacon is mentioned in his father's will of 11 Jun 1824 and his joint legatee and executor along with his brother Thomas. There is some confusion with the name, with Josias and Josiah being used interchangeably, apparently.
A search of the CRO catalogue providest he following extracts as matches for 'Josiah Deacon' from Landulph parish
Apprenticeship indentures:
P107/14/133 Apprenticeship indenture, William Sambells, aged 9 years, to Josiah Deacon, 7 Apr 1817
P107/14/158 Apprenticeship indenture, Thomazine Moyse, aged 9 years, to Josiah Deacon, farmer, 6 Apr 1819
Also:
P107/21/9 Account of James Chubb and Josiah Deacon for transporting stone 1812
Under 'Josias Deacon' the following additional matches are found:
P107/14/148 Apprenticeship indenture, Jane Chubb, aged 9 years, to Josias Deacon, yeoman, 5 Jan 1818
P107/14/150 Apprenticeship indenture, Walter Deacon, aged 15 years, to Josias Deacon, yeoman, 5 Jan 1818
Josias/ Josiah Deacon's will is extracted in the CRO catalogue as 'Joscah Deacon', as follows:
AP/D/2373, Will of Joscah Deacon, yeoman, of Landulph, 1841
The will is in fact an admon granted to his son John Deacon. The additional signatures on the bond are Edward Deacon and John Popham, grocer, of Bodmin. The catalogue summary is in error since the name Josiah is clearly written on original document.

Some intial confusion between two possible Mary Deacon's. A headstone in Landulph Churchyard records the burial of Mary Deacon 10 April 1811, the wife of Joseph Deacon. Originally there was some confusion of Joseph with Josiah since the graves re adjacent; however the inscriptions quite clearly distinguish Joseph and Josiah. The origin of Joseph, and the relationship with Josiah Deacon is not known
