Was the name ever spelled JEWELL.
I have run across the spellings JEWELL,
JEWEL, JUWELL in New Amsterdam, JUEL in
Maryland and Pennsylvania, even one fellow
Named Joseph Jewell or GERRELL. Handwriting
was bad in those days and many people
could not read or write. Clerks often
mis-spelled names . Even YOWELL. The Jewell
name goes back to the Cornish JUDHAEL.
