Wells Family - Person Sheet
Wells Family - Person Sheet
Misc. Notes
The history of Monmouth Co lists him as being a private in the Continental Army in 1776.
Since he married Deborah only 8 yrs after William did, it is likely that Levi is a brother of William and that William probably died.
1830 census lists his family as: male 1=20-30, 1=50-60 fem 1=5-10, 1=20-30, 1=40-50
There is also a listing for W. William Conrow, husband & wife = 20-30, with a son under 5. This implies that step-son John and his wife were living with them just after their marriage, while son Wm was already on his own.

Misc. Notes
Bill Conrow found a LDS fiche (0-0953, p. 23,067) which lists her birthdate as 2 Dec 1776 in Shrewsbury, Monmouth Co, NJ but that is in contradiction to the Woolley history I received from Barbara Carver Smith saying it was 3 Mar 1781 based on the Stillwell reference and her burial record.
Married to William Conrow by Garret Longstreet, Justice of the Peace. Married a second time to Levi Conrow, according to the above book. Her marriage to Levi only 8 years after marrying William leads me to believe that William died and his brother married her to raise the family. Marriage to Levi was done by James Allen, deacon of the Methodist Episcopal Church. At the time they were both living in Howell Twp.
Listed with Levi in 1830, along with her son John and his wife. There was also a 5-10 girl in the household, but it is unclear whether she is Deborah’s dau or granddaughter.
Buried in Old First Methodist Church in West Long Branch. It lists her date of death as 5 Dec 1838 (age 77 yrs, 9 mos, 2 days, which puts her birth as 30 Feb 1761?)
