Hi Edward,
I have not checked in on this board for a while and just picked up your posts.
I am descended from John Shapter's eldest brother, Edward Shapter, who emigrated to Australia in 1841. These Shapters were from Buckfastleigh Devon, and I am assuming we are talking of the same John Shapter.
There is no mention of the name Joseph as either a fore or previous surname in the many generations of this family I have researched.There are also some interesting derivations for the name.It is a very old English name, despite its German sound.
Hope to hear from you when you have a chance.
Regards
Louise Reynolds
