Catherine Conwell was born abt. 1782 in Berkeley County, West Virginia, her mother was Elizabeth Davenport daughter of Abraham Davenport and Mary Simms or Semmes, and her father was Arthur Conwell, he was born abt. 1751 in Maryland and died abt. 1799 in (West Virginia) Virginia. Catherine married John Bull March 19, 1798 in Martinsburg, Berkeley County, West Virginia. They were the parents of nine children, Benjamin Franklin, William, Arthur David, Cathrine Oric, Elizabeth, Mary Ann, Richard Robert, Caroline, and Adrian Davenport Bull.

Catherine son Arthur Bull spent the last thirty-eight years of his life in the mountains of California. No definite location was given, nothing about the date of birth or death or a name of his wife. His Mother Catherine estate shows loans to him in 1828 and 1830 for a total of $56. She had also loaned money to Richard & William. Her total estate was $100 in loans and about $70 in household good. (Estate File, Greene County, Ohio).

I want to thank Robert Messmore for all his help in proving that all of these Conwell's are buried in Woodland Cemetery. Robert informed me that in 1974 there was a Tornado in Xenia, Ohio and it tore the Monuments in Woodland Cemetery, and most of them were in the part of the Cemetery were the Conwell's were buried. If your looking at these graves and see a picture with a X that is where they are buried, the monument is gone, but thanks to records kept of this Cemetery we are able to find who the Conwell's were and their relationship to each other.
