The gospels are entirely silent on Joseph's age.
Some Christians, particularly some Catholics, are concerned at the possibility that Mary did not remain a virgin throughout her married life, yet the gospels talk of Jesus having brothers and sisters. One solution that was developed was to envisage Joseph as an older man who had already been married and already had children. It seems rather unlikely that a poor and older carpenter would have been a suitable husband for a young virgin girl, but this view does allow him to be in his thirties or forties at the time Jesus was born.
