Biographical History
Benjamin Howell, Jr. was born on June 29, 1786, the son of John Howell (1759-1834) and Phebe Farrand (1760-1813). He was a well-known attorney in addition to being a surveyor and merchant.

They eventually had seven children, five of which lived past infancy. Their youngest son, Lemuel Cobb Howell, went on to practice law in New Jersey after completing an education at Princeton.
