    1. [HOWELL] Mathew Howell Who?
    2. Shee Max
    3. Jeff, I saw your question and want to bounce something off of you. My GGGGF,Mathew Howell, Loyalist in the King's Orange Rangers, I believe came from NJ. Or at least was recruited in Orange Co NJ. He went to NS Canada after the war. His son(?s) later went to Meigs Co OH. Family lore says that 5+ siblings came over at one time probably in the 1600s. AND of course they would have settled in the East. With the large families they had we are looking at a lot of connections if I can get past the AM Rev with my Mathew. If during the war.. my Mathew Howell went Loyalist, and some of his siblings did not..then the later generations may have moved into close proximity to each other when they came back from Canada. They gave up land and homes to do so. Therefore they must have had some reason to go where they did. I also see a lot of Howells in my area in NW ARK. I think may have done the same thing. Your Mathew Howell in WV could be very close to Meigs Co OH where my family went in abt. 1820. I have seen our Mathew Howell spelled with 2 Ts, but,ours is Mathew. Thank goodness it isn't John I am looking for although we have our share of them. Given the European custom of naming their children; A Mathew Howell may be the link to many of us from pre-Am Rev. I only have mine back to 1784 when he got land from the Crown. I have a copy of these records. I do know he was in the KoR for 7 years. I only think he was from NJ, if not then the connecting areas in NY state. They were Episcopal Methodist Ministers for three generations. They were always land owners. I believe the answer is found in NJ or NY. If I can find a connection between a birth of a Mathew Howell and the fact that he went loyalist. I do have a record of a Mathew Howell giving the pledge to the Colonies prior to the war. If this is mine then he changed his mind. Wathca' think? Sheila Texas Is this Howell family connected to the Mathew Howell who was married to Rebecca Henthorn and lived in the Wheeling W.V. area in the 1790's?

    1. Re: [HOWELL] Mathew Howell Who?
    2. My Mathew Howell was probably the right age to have fought in the revolutionary war, but I do'nt know if he did. I have no ideal where he came from, but other Howell's in the Wheeling W.V. area in the 1790's were William, David and Aaron. John and Andrew also show up in Monroe Co., Ohio, where these Howell's eventually settled. I've come across your Mathew Howell in my research, (the one in Meigs Co.) but I have'nt found a connection to my Mathew. Verna Abbott who responded to the message about Evan & Sarah Howell, stated she was descended from Evan Howell. She contacted me over a year ago and I thought she was from the Mathew Howell & Rebecca Henthorn. I post my message in response to hers, to see if she had made a breakthrough on this line.

    1. [HOWELL] Roll Call - a lurker speaks - Howells in Alabama - from NC
    2. Hello to all. I am a lurker for about the last 3 months. I am descended from Howells from Wayne County, NC > central TN (for a while) > Perry County, Alabama > Pensacola, Florida > Montgomery, Alabama. With the help of cousins in Texas, Kentucky, California, New York, Florida, Mississippi, and here in Montgomery, we have figured out our lines, leading back to John Howell, a RW soldier in Wayne County. My Howell line is like this (all are Howells): George Clinton Jr. (b. Montgomery, AL 1947 - d. not yet) George Clinton (b. Pensacola, FL 1921 - d. Montgomery, AL 1980) George Lewis (b. Pensacola, FL 1900 - d. Montgomery, AL 1969) Ira Clinton (b. Perry County, AL 1874 - d. Montgomery, AL 1951) George Washington (b. Maury County, TN - died Perry County, AL 1879) Bennett B. (b. Wayne County, NC - d. where? when?) Lewis (b. Wayne County, NC - d. 1840 Perry County, AL) John (b. Wayne County, NC 1753 - d. Wayne County, NC) Joshua (we think) - Wayne County, NC Our questions are these: Who was Lewis Howell's wife (she died in Perry County, AL in 1839, but we don't know her name - may be a Raiford)? Who was John Howell's wife? If it was Isabell Jernigan, please prove it. Who was Joshua Howell's father? I have some information on other lines descended from Lewis Howell. Any info on lines from anybody in my line would be appreciated. Thanks for any help! Stay tuned!! George C. Howell Jr. (at work, on my lunch hour)
