Howell
HOWELL. The Howell family of Hunterdon County differs from the one encountered in the Trenton area. This family came from Gloucester County to Bucks County before Daniel Howell married Mary Else Reading about 1710, daughter of John and Elizabeth Reading.
Howell House, part two
The old house on Worman Road has been something of a mystery house for many years. Who built the house and when? These are the classic questions asked when starting work on a house history. In this case, finding the answer took some digging.
The Howell Family Tree
A note on the Howell families: there were at least three separate Howell families who show up in early New Jersey records.
There is a Howell family that begins with David Howell (1657-1684) and wife Mary Herick. Their son Daniel Howell (c.1680-1732) and wife Mary Prout lived in Trenton and had nine children, none of whom seem to have established themselves in Hunterdon County, although I have not made certain of that. In any case, that family will not be included here.
