These sewells were based in Cumberland in places like Bigrigg, Irton and Egremont. I also located another John Sewell who I think must be a cousin b 1833 in Egremont, father Samuel, mother Elizabeth and brother William and sister Elizabeth. Maybe there are connections? Thanks and regards, Bette Sewell
