I am interested in finding any additional information surrounding the following people:
James Bonwell - Born Apr 25, 1741 and
Betty Bonwell - Born 1748
with children
Robert born Oct 4, 1767
Peggy born Apr 26, 1772
Isaac born Oct 30, 1773
Betty born Apr 25, 1779
Clem(sp?) born Mar 7, 1782
Salle(sp?) born Feb 17, 1785
Elijah born Sep 6, 1788
One of the girls may have married a McKeel Wise, born 1773, but I don't know for sure. I only know that the family came from VA, but I'm not sure if they were living in Accomack Co. I am guessing that is where they came from, because when searching Census information, that is the only area in Virginia where I am consistently finding the name Bonwell. I see some name matches in the 1810 census records, (James, Robert, Betty, Elijah) but the information given in that census year does not provide any confirmation.
