Notes for J
OHN A(LEXANDER) NEWELL:
      Written "John A." 13 AL in 1850. John may have been enumerated twice in 1850: (1) as stated and (2) Tuscaloosa Co., AL Dist 1 #641 "John Newell" 12 AL living with James Pierson, an adjacent family. This same scenario exists with his brother, James G.
      In 1860, there is a John Newell in Fayette Co. living with Martin Lawrence at Millport. The household #416 is quite near #412 Matthew Newell, and in 1870, Emily Newell, widow of John Newell is #7 on the census near Robert Newell who is #2 on that census. John's Civil War record indicated that he was a teamster.
      Emily Newell's Civil War Pension Application indicates John's dod as Jul 4, 1862 and was a Pvt.

21. WILLIAM JASPER3 NEWELL (SARAH "SALLY"2 BOYD, ROBERT1) was born April 16, 1844 in Tuscaloosa Co., AL, and died in Verona, Lee Co., MS.

Notes for W
ILLIAM JASPER NEWELL:
      Written "Wm. J." 6 AL in 1850.
      William J. is a mystery. The only absolute identification of him as the son of James and Sarah is the 1850 Tuscaloosa Co. census, bc1844, and living with his parents. There are several records that have not been absolutely tied to this William. In 1870, there is a J. William, age 23 and a William J., age 20, working on the farm and living with James and Sarah. The J. William may be William Jasper. But in 1870 there is also a William J., age 22 on the Sanford Co., AL census at Big Pond Pct #2, line #51. Matthew is #61 on this same census. Several of James and Sarah's sons bought lands adjacent to Matthew in Sanford/Lamar Co. in the early 1850s, including James G. and John.
      William enlisted in the Civil War in Tuscaloosa Co. in 1863. According to his tombstone inscription, he served in Co I, Pattersons Rgt, CSA. (A military pension located in the MS State Archives identifies a W. J. Newell as being in Co A, 30th Reg., Georgia Vol. Infantry, Army of Tennessee, CSA, Butts Co., GA, "Butts Invincibles." This company became Co I upon reorganization in 1862. -- S. Royal). It isn't known for sure if this W. J. Newell in the GA unit is the same as William Jasper. ( Research indicates that Col. Josiah Patterson was the commander of the 5th Ala Cav Rgt and this could have been William's unit. -JTN). This unit also recruited from Tuscaloosa Co.
      Written "J. William" 23 AL in 1870 a farm worker. The "J" appears to have been added in front of the name "William" after the enumerator listed him. This is probably William Jasper although there is no way to prove it.
      William was not listed with the family in 1880 and hasn't been found yet. Susan and the children were living in her parents' household.
      Written "W. J." 66 AL NC NC in 1900 a farmer. Dob stated as Apr 1844.
      Written "William J." 67 AL NC NC in 1910 a farmer.
      Written "William J." 77 AL NC NC in 1920 living in James A. Gray household and labeled "father-in-law.".
      Appears to be written "Bill" 86 MS MS MS in 1930 -- transcribed "Ben" and living in Jim Gray household labeled "father-in-law."
