E. WATSON FELL farmer, P.O. Holicong, was born on the old 
homestead where he now lives in September, 1843, and is a 
son of Joseph and Harriet (Williams) Fell, natives of Bucks 
county.  The Fell family originated from England and came to 
this county about the time of William Penn.  The 
grandfather, Dr. David Fell, was a practicing physician for 
some years.  The father, Joseph, was a teacher during his 
early life.  He was the first county superintendent of Bucks 
county.  He died in March, 1887, in his 83rd year.  He is 
the father of five children, four of whom are living:  D. 
Newlin, judge of the Court of Common Pleas No. 2, 
Philadelphia; Emily F., wife of William T. Seal; Lucy W., 
and E. Watson.   E. Watson was reared on the homestead, 
where he has always resided.  He owns 121 acres.  In 1867 he 
was married to Elizabeth M. Kenderdine, a native of Bucks 
county.  They have four children:  E. Lawrence, Robert N., 
Emily C., and William W.  Mrs. Fell is a member of Friends' 
meeting.  Mr. Fell is an enterprising and intelligent 
citizen, and has held a number of township offices.
