I am not a Wikipedian, but would strongly suggest this article just be removed. It's sole source is a review of a children's FICTION book. Peg-Leg Joe may or may not have existed. There is no evidence he ever crossed paths with Harriet Tubman. If Joe existed, he was working in the Mobile Alabama area. Tubman was active in the Maryland peninsula.
