I don't see anything else in the records that I have access to, so that I can't help you to prove or disprove!

There are 6 Public Family trees on ancestry .................. they all give the same birth place.

and some give a birth date of 28 May 1769




Rootsweb has one entry for Joshua .................

Birth:
_UID: 8EA2B586-1227-4222-8CC4-1D715C86FA39
RIN: MH:IF2699 28 MAY 1769 in Ubbeston, Suffolk



In fact, that date of 28 May, if correct, is more likely to be the BAPTISM date than the birth date.
