My ancestor Ezekiel Jewell b 6 Nov 1788 in NY married Loretta Brown 30 Jun 1808 in Greenville, Greene Co., NY. Loretta was born in 1789 and died 24 Jan 1877 in Parma and Ezekiel died 30 Dec 1851 in Parma, Monroe Co., NY. After years of research I feel that he might be the son of Anne Holmes and David Jewell of Salisbury, Litchfield Co., CT. I know the Jewell register says that they had no children but in the 1790 census of Freehold, there is a male child, under 16 listed in the household of David Jewell. In the 1800 census of Freehold David's name is listed without anyone listed in the household.
Anne must of died around 1790 because David marries as his 2nd wife Martha Knowles on 23 Feb 1791 in Greenfield, Greene Co., NY.
Thank you for any help
