You don't mention when Joseph might have gone to America or where he might have lived. Have you checked index (free) at Find My Past to see if there's a record of him leaving the U.K.?- it should give post of arrival and year.
If he arrived in New York 1892-1924 you can look for passenger manifest on www.ellisisland.org (be sure to look at both pages of scanned images to see where he was supposed to be going).
