It was from his orchard land that Emerson, Irving and Park Streets were developed, and later land west of Crittenden Road, extending north to the village line, was purchased from the Ewell property. Colonel and Mrs. Ewell contributed one-half the cost of the Presbyterian Church which stands on the corner of Broadway and Crittenden Road, and donated the land and the cost of the Ewell Free Library (about $27,000) as memorials to their only child, Florence Josephine.

His wife was Deborah Bates, and their son James married Sarah Holbrook, their son Henry married Betsy Bancroft, and in company with his brother Samuel left Massachusetts in 1803 and journeyed to the Holland purchase in western New York, being among the first settlers of the town of Batavia, founded the year before.
