General Notes: Husband - Jehu Conwell


He was reared on a farm and attended Luzerne's subscription schools and Madison College. After leaving school he engaged in farming and stock raising. Mr. Conwell owned two hundred acres of fertile and productive land, and resided in the old stone mansion built by William Ewing about 1790. Mr. Conwell was been justice of the peace for fifteen years or more, and was a member of the Presbyterian church. Politically he was a Whig, and on the disbanding of that political organization became a republican. His nearest approach to being a democrat was in celebrating for many years Jackson's victory at New Orleans.
