Howell Immigrants

                        The earliest Howells that have been located are Benjamin (c. 1735-1799) and his brother Joshua Howell (b. 1745).  Dr. Thomas Jones research indicates they were from Pennsylvania probably Philadelphia Co. since that is where Daniel Howell said he was born.

                        Philadelphia was one of the most common points of entry for immigrants so possibly Benjamin and his brother Joshua were the first Howells of their branch in America.  However no Benjamin and Joshua Howells are listed in the many volumes of the Passenger and Immigration Lists. 

 

Original Volumes of the Passenger and Immigration Lists-No Benjamin or Joshua

1982-93, 95 Supplements-No Benjamin or Joshua

1994 Supplement-No Benjamin or Joshua (one Benjamin but from Canada in 1817)

 

            Since there are no listings for Benjamin or Joshua Howell, this is a list of all Howells found listed in Philadelphia before 1735.
