  Joel wrote his Will in Chester County, Pennsylvania on 10 December 1728, then amended it 9 February 1731/32. The will was proved 8 April 1732. He died in 1732.
  
  In the book titled, History of Chester County, Pennsylvania, by J. Smith Futhey and Gilbert Cope, Joel's life in Chester County is portrayed:
  
  BAILY, Joel, is supposed to have come from Wiltshire, England. Among the purchasers of land in Pennsylvania was Daniel Baily, of Westbrook, in the parish of Bromham, Wiltshire, weaver, who in 1681 bought 125 acres, which was subsequently located in Birmingham township. He did not come over, but Joel Baily, doubtless a relative, appears to have been concerned in the sale of the land to William Radley in 1713.
  
  The first mention of Joel Baily is at a court held in September, 1685, when he sues Thomas Withers for wages, and also for assault and battery. One Elizabeth Baily was married in that year to Jeremiah Cloud, and in 1687 Joel Baily married Ann Short. At the first court held for Chester County the Swedish priest was complained of for marrying George Thompson to one Miriam Short, contrary to the laws of the province. Aaron Copppok married in 1704 Miriam White, a widow; in 1713 they join with Joel Baily and wife in selling land, and Coppoek in his will, 1726, mentions his son-in-law, Ralph Thomson.
  
  After his marriage Joel Baily resided on this land, which was partly in Middletown and partly in Aston, but in 1704-5 he removed to Marlborough, settling first in the eastern part of what is now East Marlborough, and later in
  West Marlborough, where he died in 1732. The children of Joel and Ann Baily were,—1. Mary, b. 9, 10, 1688; d. 1741; m. Alexander Stewart and George Harlan. 2. Ann, b. 10, 10, 1691; d. 8, 12, 1774; m. Jeremiah Cloud. 3. Daniel, b. 10, 3, 1693; d. about 1783; m. Olive Harry, 1720. 4. Isaac, b. 10, 24, 1695; d. 1732; m. 1, 1, 1727-8, Abigail (Johnson) Wickersham. 5. Joel, b. 12, 17, 1697; d. about 1775; m. 8, 28, 1724, Betty Caldwell. 6. John, m. 3, 29, 1729, Lydia Pusey, and again, 4, 8, 1732, Mary Marsh. 7. Thomas, m. to Sarah Bentley,
  daughter of John and Mary Bentley, of Newlin. 8. Josiah, m. 3, 9, 1731, to Sarah Marsh, and settled at the homestead.

According to the book, Immigration of the Irish Quakers into Pennsylvania, 1682-1750, by Albert Cook Myers, Joel help founded a meeting place for the town of Marlborough:

Samuel Smith, in his history of the Pennsylvania meetings, says that in 1707, "Vincent Caldwell, Thomas Wickersham, Joel Baily, Thomas Hope, Guyan Miller [an Irish Friend], and others, being settled in Kennet and the east end of Marlborough, had liberty to keep a meeting for worship sometimes in private homes. In the year 1710 a piece of land was purchased and a meeting-house built, which was enlarged in 1719; in 1731 it was further enlarged..."
