I have a Jedediah Elwell who was the uncle of Parmelia Densten,wife to Levin Densten. In 1850 the census listed him as Dunstan. Jedediah left Parmelia a ferry and tavern at the mouth of the Woodbury Creek on the Delaware River . I think it was about 1825 or so. She died in 1835. I know Jedediah had a brother or nephew who lived in the Salem area as he was also left some property. I can't recall the name right now but do remember that it was definately not a commonly used name even for that time. I have a copy f the will if you have need of it. Levin is said to have come from VA along the eastern shore. Jedediah and Levin both had workers living with them during difffernet census takings who were born in VA. Permelia died after the birth of her third stillborn child. She and Levin had 3 children who lived into adulthood. Lavinia,Levin and John. I am descended through John. I don't know if Permelia was an Elwell or a Small as her cousin or sister is also listed in the will of Jedediah. I have not found Jedediah's burial place nor any further info about him. I hope I have sent enough info. Anything to further this part of my family research would be wonderful. Thank you for the offer.
