Description From Owner:

In 1768 Simon and Judah Crowell and Elisha Hopkins laid out their land grant here. When their descendants grew numerous, the N part was called Hopkinstown and the S section was Crowelltown.
When the post office opened the area came under the name Crowells Post Office, or Crowells.
