Nathaniel Jewell

  General Notes:

" Farmer's Genealogical Register," p. 162, says, "Thomas Jewell of Brantry (Braintree) had sons, Joseph, b. 24th April, 1642; Nathaniel, b. 15th April, 1648 ; and several other children." The names of his daughters are unknown, and uncounted here. As one of the sons that lived to rear families received the honored name of his father, we shall place him at the head of the list, although he may have been the younger. By this arrangement the three sons will head three separate lines, and be numbered as follows. *2 Thomas, b. in Hingham, Mass.
*3 Joseph, b. Apr. 24, 1642 ; d. Stow, Mass., time not known.
*4 Nathaniel, b. Apr. 15, 1648; d. Plainfield, Ct., March, 1712.
