    John, who in the line of descent is called John Hewlett second.
    He married Hannah Jackson, daughter of the second Colonel John and Elizabeth
    Jackson, who lived at Jerusalem, L.I. After their marriage he bought a tract of
    land located in East Woods (now known as Woodbury). Here he settled and remained
    till his death, May 5th 1790, in the 88th year of his age. His wife, Hannah J,
    died three years previous, March 3d 1787, in the 90th year of her age.
    Their remains rest in a family burying ground situated on a narrow projecting
    mound a short distance east of the house now designated as Mount Nebo. The place
    is now in the possession, and the ground thus dedicated is to be the burial
    place, of the descendants of John Hewlett the second, who among other children left a son John, born February 17th 1731,who is designated as John Hewlett the third.

    Notes:

    From history of Jones family:

    His father-in-law, John Hewlett, a large landholder at East Woods (now Woodbury), in the town of Oyster Bay, near the Suffolk Co. line, was a justice of the peace, and, having sworn allegiance to the King, and being forty-five years of age, refused to take arms on either side. This was treated by the supporters of Congress as excusable, and he was not harshly dealt with, nor were the Quakers, which some members of the family joined. There were many Quakers in the town located between the Royalists on the west, and the supporters of Congress on the east.

    The Hewlett family was numerous ; an early George on L. I. in 1668 had four sons, who all left descendants, including George and the first John, living in 1683, whose son John, b. 1703, m.
    Hannah, dau. of 2d Col. John Jackson, and was the father of the third John Hewlett, the justice above mentioned. The mother of the justice being a Jackson, he doubtless was befriended by
    that large family.

    Capt. Richard Hewlett, son of Daniel, who had served in the French war, supported the English government. He became Colonel, Qr. Master, and Commissary, was active on L. I. during the war, and assumed the right to order the local militia or English subordinates. He or his captn. gave some orders to this John Jones (TIL 12) which required acts that were unpopular, such as collecting assessments of hay. Some of the hay collected and stacked was burned by the Continentals. Although not accused of any misconduct, the fact of losing the hay may have deprived his troop of reward from the British, who occupied the place in force during the winter.

    The justice of the peace, by order, took charge of collecting the assessment imposed as they would a tax. The Judge George Duncan Ludlow (called a "Superintendent of Police") took charge of them and their local action. The native officers probably acted with more moderation than the foreigners.



    His father-in-law. Justice John Hewlett, lived until 4 April. 1812, and was buried on a hill near his home at East Woods called "Mount Nebo." The justice divided his large landed estate among some of his children by deeds in 1791, etc. His daughter Mary married Isaac Youngs ; his eldest son, Townsend, married a sister of this John Jones. His second son, Isaac Hewlett, married Rhoda Van W>ck, and his son Divine married Ann, dau. of Jac. Coles, of Duck Pond. His dau. Elizabeth married Samuel Jones, son of William.

    It will be noticed how strongly the members of the family were tied together ; living near the boundary line between Queens and Suffolk Co., through a long civil war, the hostilities and jealousies which convulsed the whole country doubtless taught them to adhere firmly to each other and avoid giving offence.
