NEWEL OF GREAT HORTON

 

There were evidently at least two John Newels having children in the Bradford area in the 1660s and 1670s. John Newel and Agnes Stones were married there in 1665 and John Newel and Isabel Scholefield were married there in 1666.

 

The William Newel whose daughter Grace was baptised at Bradford in 1700 may be the bridegroom in the marriage of “Wm: Nowell & Martha Woodhead de Shelf” at Halifax on 6 September 1692. Martha Newel, widow, of Great Horton, was buried at Bradford on 6 September 1731.
