There is a discrepancy in his death date. The headstone and Watertown Township clerk's records show the year as 1912. However, his death certificate shows it as 1916.

He married Emily Wells abt 1868.
The death certificate shows he was born in Pennsylvania and his father is Jacob Jewell. A mother is not listed. Informant: Mrs Frank Loe
