  1. 2.  Uzal WARDWELL was born Abt 1639; died 25 Oct 1732, Bristol, RI.

    Notes:

    His death record at Bristol: "WORDALL Uzal, 93y., Oct. 25, 1732"

    The will of Uzal Wardwell, administered 7 Dec 1732 at Bristol, RI, mentions his wife Grace and five sons: Joseph, Uzal, James, William, & Benjamin. No daughters are mentioned, although it is known that he had daughters.

    I am not sure which of his children were born of his second wife, although I am fairly sure that Sarah was Grace's daughter because she and her husband are named as executors in Grace's will. Also, I have found James in the Bristol birth records, as a son of Uzal & Grace.

    The surname is spelled variously as Wardwell, Wordwell, Wordall, Wordell, & Wardel.

    Uzal came from Ipswich, MA, and settled in Bristol, RI, where it is said he was an innkeeper.

    Uzal married Grace Unknown Abt 1680. Grace died 9 May 1741, Bristol, RI. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    The will of Grace Wardwell was dated 19 Oct 1739 and proved 27 May 1741. The executors were her daughter Sarah Bosworth and Sarah's husband Nathaniel.

    Her death record at Bristol: "WORDALL, Old Mrs. Grace, May 9, 1741"
