Hi, I have noticed over time that this mailing list seems to deal primarily with Howells with origins from the Southern part of the US. I am descended from the Howell lineage with origins in the North, PA, New England, IL, OH areas. Is there a separate mailing list for reaching that portion of the Howell family members? If so what is that mailing list or how may I locate it. Thanks Carrie Bias Hoffert.
I think that there are just fewer people searching in that area at the moment. I know I find that I some of my other lists. I am looking in Tennessee and Kentucky, but have absolutely no idea how they got there. They just appeared and dead end. Good luck with you research.

Hey, count me in for another Northern Howell, although I too notice there are alot of southern & mid-western Howells. Here is my info. I did send this out in July, but it's worth re-sending as there may be new people. I have a Joel Howell, born 1832 and died about 1919 in Mattituck, Long Island, NY. Married to Phoebe (or Phebe) Hulduh Carter, (no other information on Phoebe other than birth year of 1834), on Sept 24, 1854 also in Mattituck. I was told they had 10 children, of which I have found the names of 9. As far as I can tell, all were born in Mattituck, Long Island, New York. They are as follows: Rinech H. Howell daughter Jan 03, 1856 Thomas Henry Howell son Dec 10, 1857 Silas Hawkins Howell son July 13, 1859 Joel Ernest Howell son July 17, 1866 Caroline Amanda Howell daughter Aug 14, 1868 Alfred VanBuren Howell son Feb 13, 1871 Cary Howell daughter unknown Sidney Howell daughter unknown Lila Howell daughter unknown ???? Howell unknown unknown Silas, (my great, great grandfather), married Lizzie Dunham Sept 1, 1886. All I know of Lizzie is she was born Oct 1, 1861 and died approx 1926-27 in Mattituck, LI, NY and they had 2 children. A daughter Caroline Carter Howell born 1894 in Mattituck, never married and a son, Raynor Dunham Howell (my great grandfather), born March 29, 1890. He married Grace Mary Winchester, (born July 19, 1892 in Syracuse, NY) on November 27, 1919 in Mattituck. Raynor died Sept 26, 1977 and Grace died April 30, 1981..both in Ballston Spa, NY. Lila had a daughter Carol Hallock born in early 1920's. Unsure if Hallock is maiden name or married name. Alfred married Bertha -unknown last name- and had a daughter named Katharine What I am really looking for is dates for Joel's children as I am missing some, as well as the name and sex of the 10th child. Also, I know Joel's parents are a Greshom H. Howell born May 28, 1804...not date of death and Lydia Conklin born Oct 8, 1800 died Dec 16, 1880. I have 4 children listed but I have no infomation on Greshom's parents or siblings. Some other bits of info....The house in Mattituck was designated a landmark in 1936 while my great grandfather's parents, (Silas & Phoebe) and his sister still lived in the house. It served as the British Headquarters during the Revolutionary Battle of LI. It was built in the late 1600's or very early 1700's by Richard Howell, but I have no clue how to connect Richard down the line, so I need to connect from Greshom on up. Would love to find someone researching the same line. Thanks...Kim Ambrosecchia -------Original Message------- From: HOWELL-L@rootsweb.com Date: 12/09/2003 02:52:54 PM To: HOWELL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [HOWELL] More Northern Howell Family lines Hi, I have noticed over time that this mailing list seems to deal primarily with Howells with origins from the Southern part of the US.

I'm descended from Southern Howell's that migrated north to Indiana. Any kin out there searching for descendents of Phillison and Henrietta Noland Howell of Estill Co. Kentucky 1810-1840; La Porte Co. Indiana 1840 to Current.
