Descendants of James Newell


4. UNKNOWN2 NEWELL (JAMES1) was born in AL.

Notes for U
NKNOWN NEWELL:
      Since it has not yet been possible to identify this potential Newell descendant, this file will be used to attach a number of unknown stragglers that have been identified from various censuses. As they are clarified and identified, they will be moved to the appropriate ancestor file, or removed. There are several Newells that appear to be related to James and Sarah based on census association, but their relationship has not been established. Some were actually in the James and Sarah Newell household on some censuses, or living adjacently or nearby on other censuses. Therefore, for record keeping purposes, these Newells will be attached to the Unknown Newell ancestor as a temporary pageholder.

  Notes for MARY A. NEWELL:
      Listed "Mary" 1 AL in 1860 and living in the John and Elizabeth Turner household. (I believe those pages were mis-numbered and Mary, who is listed at the top of the page, is actually a continuation of Martha's household which has George W. on the bottom line. The John Turner household has additional blank lines below them and makes Mary's following page listing non-sensical.)
      Written "Mary" 14 AL in 1870 at home living in her grandparents James and Sarah Newell household. Along with George 14 and Elizabeth 18, these are Elizabeth Martha's children and James' grandchildren.
