Jonathan Sewall/Sewell, the Loyalist, was the last Royal Attorney General for the Colony of Massachusetts. He was exiled from the American Colonies to England in 1775. Jonathan Sewell and his wife Esther Quincy eventually settled in Saint John (It was spelled as St. John then.), New Brunswick. "They changed the spelling of their name to Sewell while “visiting”, i.e., in exile, in England."

It 1883, J. W. Lawrence in Footprints; or Incidents in Early History of New Brunswick that "Mrs. Sewell was a sister of the wife of John Hancock, the first signer of Independence. Mr. Sewell died at St. John, 1796, at the age of 68 years."

Esther Quincy was related by marriage to John Adams, the second President of the United Sates of America and father of John Quincy Adams, the sixth President of the United States.

  According to this Web site, Esther Quincy was a member of the 22nd known generation of the Quincy family. Daniel Quincy, whose great X2 grandson was John Quincy Adams, was the son of Col. Edmund Quincy, a member of the 19th known generation of the Quincy family.

  "Esther Quincy married Jonathan Sewall, the last attorney general of the Province of Massachusetts before the American Revolution. The Sewall family home in Cambridge, Massachusetts was wrecked by a revolutionary mob, consisting of some fifty men and boys, on September 1, 1774. Jonathan was in Boston at the time, and a very frightened Esther struck a bargain with the mob of “patriots”. She exchanged the contents of her husband's wine cellar for the mob's dispersal. This terrifying event had a life-long impact on the eight-year-old Jonathan, Jr. who was to become the Chief Justice of Quebec.

  Jonathan, Esther and their children Jonathan, Jr., Elizabeth and Stephen moved to Boston within a week of the sacking of their Cambridge home; and were forced to flee what was to become the United States in 1775, never to return. They changed the spelling of our name from “Sewall” to “Sewell”.

  Born: November 27, 1738

  Died: June 21, 1810

  Married: January 21, 1764 to {Attorney General} Jonathan Sewall / Sewell."

As Attorney-General of Massachusetts, Jonathan Sewall commenced a significant legal suit in American legal history.

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~walkersj/lechmere.htm

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~walkersj/lechmere.htm

"1769; A suit was commenced against Judge Lechmere by Jonathan Sewall, Attorney-General of Massachusetts in favor of a negro demanding his freedom. The suit was terminated in favor of the negro. This is said to be the first case in which the question was settled abolishing slavery in that state. (200 Years Ago, or, A Brief History of Cambridgeport and East Cambridge.)"

There are conflicting stories about the death of Jonathan Sewall.

In the following document, it was written that he died "at Halifax, 1796, aged sixty-two years."
• THE HISTORY OF PORTLAND, FROM 1632 TO 1864: With a Notice of Previous Settlements Colonial Grants AND. CHANGES OF GOVERNMENT IN MAINE. BY WILLIAM WILLIS.

  http://www.usigs.org/library/books/me/Portland1865/Portland022.htm

  "3 Mr. Sewall succeeded Mr. Gridley as attorney general in 1.767 ; he graduated at Harvard College in 1748, but did not enter upon practice until 1757, having in the mean time kept a school in Salem. At the commencement of the difficulties with the mother country, he was caressed over to the royal party and a new office, the "King's solicitor," was created expressly for him. Ile was a good lawyer and advocate, and had a fund of wit and satire always at command, which he employed at the bar and in political controversy. He maintained a discussion in the papers in 1774 and 1775 under the name of Massachusettensis with John Adams, in which the principal subjects of disagreement with Great Britain were ably handled. He retired to England in 1775 and settled in Bristol. He died at Halifax, 1796, aged sixty-two years. The authorship of Massachusettensis has been recently denied him and given to Daniel Leonard. See Historical and Gen. Reg. pp. 18, 291, and Sabine's Loyalists, 2d edition.

  4 Mr. Adams attended the court here twelve successive years prior to the revolution, and boarded with Jonathan Webb. Jonathan Sewall and Mr. Adams were intimate friends until the crisis in American politics took place. Finding they could not change each others views, they determined not to discuss the subject any more. This resolution was taken in this town when the court was sitting in July, 1774 ; they were walking upon Munjoy's hill before breakfast and earnestly discussing the great questions which were then agitating the country. The conversation terminated by Mr. Adams saying, "I see we must part; and with a bleeding heart I say it, I fear forever; but you may depend upon it, that this adieu is the sharpest thorn on which I ever set my foot." After their parting here, they did not meet again until Mr. Adams called upon him in London; in 1788, as the ambassador of the free American States."

  On a Sewall genealogical Web page, it was said that "Jonathan died 26 Sep 1796 at 67 years of age." A place of death is not stated. It was stated on the page that "Esther died 21 Jan 1810" in "Montreal, Quebec, CAN, at 71 years of age."

  A web page of, Robert Sewell, a descendant of Jonathan Sewall, appears to confirm David McCullough's claim about Jonathan Sewall's death. It bears a picture of a plaque in memory of Jonathan Sewall (II) at Trinity Church, St. John, N.B..

  http://robertsewell.tripod.com/jonsewallii.htm

  • TrinitySJ.com: Trinity Anglican Church - Saint John, New Brunswick

    http://www.trinitysj.com/

  The plaque confirms that Jonathan Sewell died in 1796 and Esther Sewell died in 1810 in Montreal, Quebec.

  On another page at Robert Sewell's Web site, it is written:

  "He resided chiefly in Bristol till 1788, for the education of his children, then he removed to St. John’s, N. B., having been appointed Judge of Admiralty for Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. He immediately entered upon the duties of his office, which he held till his death, which occurred September 26, 1796, at the age of sixty-eight. His widow survived him, and removed to Montreal, where she died January 21, 1810.

  The plaque also says that Jonathan Sewall died in Saint John and that he was interred in Judge Putnam's vault.

  There is documentary evidence that Jonathan Sewall had know James Putnam since 1758, at least. Johnathan John Adams' diary is available on-line, as a transcription and as images. In his own hand, you can see where he wrote:

  "Last Superiour Court at Worcester [Bob Paine] dined in Company with Mr. Gridly, Mr. Trowbridge, and several others, at Mr. Putnams, and altho a modest attentive Behaviour would have best become him in such a Company, yet he tried to ingross the whole Conversation to himself. He did the same, in the Evening, when all the judges of the Superiour Court with Mr. Winthrop, Sewall, &c. were present, and he did the same last Thanksgiving day, at Coll. Quincies, when Mr. Wibirt, Mr. Cranch &c. were present. This Impudence may [illegible] sett the Million a Gape at him but will make all Persons of Sense despize him, or hate him."

There is a great deal of information about the homes of Jonathan Sewell on the Internet.

At left, the Saint John, formerly known as Carleton, home of the Sewell's is shown.

There is a Sewall House in Saint John, New Brunswick.

• The Westside [Saint John] Walk & Drive

  "24. SEWELL HOUSE

  On Duke Street at Ludlow is Saint John's oldest wooden building, the Georgian-style Sewell House. It is thought to have been built for Jonathan Sewell Jr., former Attorney General of Massachusetts, who arrived in 1786 with the Loyalist settlers. He stayed in Saint John only a short time before moving to Lower Canada. Sewell House was a fine structure for the era, and had eight large rooms with servants' quarters in the attic."

  

  At right, the skyline of Saint John, formerly known as St. John and Carelton, is shown from King St. West in Carleton. It is unlikely that Jonathan Sewell, Jr., the law student, would have had the time and resources to build Sewell House, let alone have chosen to commute to St. John from Carelton.

  Author's Notes:

  Jonathan Sewell Sr., Jonathan Sewell Jr.'s father, was the former Attorney General of Massachusetts. Jonathan Sewell Sr. is Jonathan Sewell II, which only adds to the confusion.

  Between 1991-1992, I lived on Blue Rock Hill which overlooks the Sewell House. My bus went by it every day. I, like most Saint Johners, was totally unaware of its history.

  The Sewell House has oft been confused with Gabriel F. Ludlow's home. In Pioneer Profiles of New Brunswick Settlers by Charlotte Gourlay Robinson there is a picture of Sewell House labelled as "The Ludlow House (Old Goverment House) on Ludlow Street, Saint John. On June 24, 1965, the Telegraph-Journal reported that "...The West Side Association...reported that 180-182 Duke Street West is the original home of Gabriel G. Ludlow who became the first Mayor of Saint John."

  There is a picture of Gabriel G. Ludlow's home in "Saint John and Its Neighbors," co-authored by David Goss and Fred Miller. The caption reads, as follows, "When the Loyalists arived in Saint John Gabriel C. Ludlow was appointed as mayor. He had this home built on Duke Street on the site of the gardens of a former French settlement. Mr. Ludlow's house was torn down in the late 1880s, but his grave is still within a block of the house on Courtenay Hill. (New Brunswick Museum.)"

  There is a picture of Jonathan Sewell's home in "Saint John and Its Neighbors," co-authored by David Goss and Fred Miller, too. The caption reads, "The 1791 Sewell House that still stands on Duke Street at Ludlow is just a block to the east of the site of the Ludlow house. A four-apartment seniors' home today, it is little changed outside and claims to be the oldest house in Saint John. (New Brunswick Museum.)"

  The City of Saint John originally consisted of the central peninsula (Parrtown) and the lower, west side of the harbour (Carleton). See: Heritage Strategy Overview Study, Central Peninsula: Saint John, new Brunswick.

  I believe it is more likely to have been built for Jonathan Sewell, Sr.. The first leg of Jonathan Sewell, Jr.'s voyage from England to was noted in letters from Edward Winslow to Ward Chipman. According to a "Letter from Edward Winslow to Ward Chipman, April 11, 1785, Halifax," he arrived on board the John & Ann. In a "Letter from Edward Winslow to Ward Chipman, April 29, 1785, Halifax," EDward Winslow wrote:

  "On the 25.th ins.t arriv,d The John & Ann With Sproule & his family — M.rs & Miss Putnam. Bliss & Young Sewell,..."

  Sometime thereafter, Young Sewell arrived in Saint John as a student of Ward Chipman.

  "Shortly after Jonathan's Sewell's admission to the Bar of New Brunswick, he removed to Quebec...." This was prior to July 7, 1792, the date of a letter from Jonathan Sewell, Jr. to Ward Chipman. (Acadiensis, Vol. VI, No. 4, October 1906.) "Stephen Sewell also studied with Ward Chipman, and after his admission as an attorney went to Qubec to join his brother, Jonathan,...." This was prior to November 21, 1791, the date of a letter from Stephen Sewell to Ward Chipman. (Acadiensis, Vol. VI, No. 4, October 1906.) Elsewhere, it was written that Jonathan Sewell, Sr.'s, family was reunited in Saint John. Therefore, Jonathan Sewell, Sr., arrived in Saint John between 1785 and 1791. (Acadiensis, Vol. VI, No. 4, October 1906.) On another page at Robert Sewell's Web site, it is written:

  "He resided chiefly in Bristol till 1788, for the education of his children, then he removed to St. John’s, N. B., having been appointed Judge of Admiralty for Nova Scotia and New Brunswick...."

  In vol. 53, the March 1963 edition of the Atlantic Advocate, a more precise date for the arrival of Jonathan Sewell is given:

  "In July of 1787, the Gazette noted the arrival of the ship Peggy, six weeks and four days from England with merchandise, her passengers including Gen. Arnold, Jonathan Sewell, Esq., with their ladies and families."

  See: Benedict Arnold in New Brunswick - A Collection Of Articles And Essays. Canada Summer Works Grant, Material Gathered by N. Schell, M. Gormley, and S. Dimock. 1983. 971.024/Arn at the Saint John Free Public Library.

  In "A Heritage Now: Saint John," written by Wayne Harrison and Ross Leavitt and illustrated by celebrated Saint John artist Ray Butler, it is written, "In its almost original condition, Sewall House stands as it did when it was built before or in the early 1790's...." (Harrison, Wayne, and Leavitt, Ross. "A Heritage Now: Saint John." Saint John, N.B.: The Tyson Corporation, 1984.) the sign on the front of the house is ambiguous. It reads, as follows:

  

  At left, the Saint John, formerly known as Carleton, home of the Sewells is shown.

  Above, the skyline of Saint John, formerly known as Carleton and Saint John, is shown. Imagine sending your teenage son on a trip across the ocean on a sailing trip with a chaperone. This is the harbour that the Sewells sailed into at the end of their exile from North America.

  The late A. H. Wetmore, noted as an authority on local historical sites, collected historical material on he Sewell House in 1935. In "Saint John's Old and Historic Buildings: A Paper Read Before the Fortnightly Club by A. H. Wetmore, October 15, 1934," he wrote:

  "[Jonathan Sewell Sr. and Jonathan Sewell Jr.] drew lots 231, 232, and 252, which are on Guilford and Winslow streets at and near Lancaster street on the West side of the harbour. These lots do not seem to have been used by them but apparently they decided to build nearer to the harbour, as on the south-east corner of Duke and Ludlow streets there stands a splendid structure which has long been known as "The Old Sewell House"....

  It is a large square building with four-pitch roof, "nosed" siding, a beautiful door with fan-light, and iron-frame side lights; just such as were being used 130 to 150 years ago. The house is heavily timbered and in good state of preservation. No material changes have been made on the outside of the main house but a large ell has been added and the front door is covered with a modern porch.

  This is probably the oldest house in the community that has been retained in its original form and next in age to the Hazen House on Simonds street, under any conditions.

  It passed from the Sewells through undetermined channels until it comes into the memory of people presently living as the property of a family by the nmae of Strange. The late Rankine Bedell, a lawyer, remembered by many of us, became the owner of it through the death of his wife, who was a Miss Strange. It is now owned and occupied by William Steen who is much interested in its history."

Charlie taught me how to play chess and he gave me my first bike. Helen gave me his chess computer and chess books when he passed away. The author did not know her childhood friends had a connection to the house until several years after she read David McCullough's book.

  In the same book, on page 103, there is a newspaper article entitled "House Built About 1790?" It was published the week after Merritt House was opened to the public, around 1960?. In it, it was written:

  "Mrs. William Steen, the present owner of the house at 148 Duke Street, received a number of queries from West Side residents asking if her house was older thn the Merritt House.

  ...

  Mrs. Charles Kottas, Mrs. Steen's daughter, said that the main body of the house itself has not been changed since Mr. Wetmore's study.

  ...

  The house came into the possession of the late William Steen in 1929."

  "...Washington was already in command of the Continental Army and had received in this house Benjamin Franklin, Benedict Arnold, and others associated with the Revolution; it is quite possible that the decision to formally break with Great Britain was made here."

  Longfellow National Historic Site is an outstanding example of a historic site representing the themes of arts and literature. For almost half a century (1837-1882) this was the home of one of the world's foremost poets, scholars and educators, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Longfellow House is also significant in America's colonial history.

It was a beautiful afternoon, and the harbor was full of white sails, coming and departing. Meditated a poem on the Old Fort.'..."

Even after the deaths of Jonathan Sewell and Judge Putnam, the lives of their sons remained intertwined on account of speculation with regard to the origins of John St. Alban Sewell.

• Virtual American Biographies

  http://www.famousamericans.net/jamesputnam/

  "His son, James, born in 1753; died in England in March, 1838, was graduated at Harvard in 1774, and was one of the eighteen country gentlemen that were driven to Boston, and addressed General Gage on his departure in 1775. He went to England, became a barrack-master, a member of the royal household, and an executor of the Duke of Kent."

• Colonel John St. Alban Sewell

  http://www3.sympatico.ca/robert.sewell/johnstalban.html

  "There has been much speculation with regard to the origins of John St. Alban Sewell. Officially, he was baptized in September of 1793 as the natural child (i.e., born without the parents having undertaken the formality of a church marriage) of Chief Justice Jonathan Sewell and Elizabeth Cornfield. It appeared for years that Elizabeth Cornfield didn’t exist and it also appeared quite likely that John St. Alban was the son of Edward Augustus Hanover, Duke of Kent and his much loved and devoted common law wife of over twenty years, Mdm. Julie St. Laurent. Thus, John St. Alban Sewell would have been a half brother of Queen Victoria, whose parents were the Duke of Kent and Princess Victoria Mary Louisa von Saxe-Coburg."

Henry Clay was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1810 and soon was chosen its speaker. As the leader of the aggressive, midwestern "War Hawks," Clay helped push President Madison into war with Great Britain in 1812. In 1814, Clay resigned from Congress after Madison chose him to be one of the American delegates to the peace conference. Henry Clay became Secretary of State to President John Quincy Adams.

As an aside, Jonathan Sewall has connections to the current presidency. His aunt, Susanna Sewall, married Aaron Porter. He is the 2x great-grandchild of John Stanley and Susan Lancock, the 9x great-grandparents of President George Bush. They are 3rd cousins, 7x removed. Susana Sewall is also the 3x great-grandmother of Stephen GROVER CLEVELAND (1837-1908), US President, and the 3x great-grandaunt of one of my favourite authors, WILLIAM SYDNEY PORTER ("O.
