Newell was a Private in Co. H, 17th Maine Infantry Regiment in the Civil War. After the war, he was a farmer in Charleston.
Apparently, he and Abbie divorced only a few short years after their 1871 marriage; Abbie married Clarence Tibbetts of Charleston 31 January 1876.

Newell moved west to Stockton, Tooele County, Utah, where he met and married Violet. Her parents had settled in Stockton in 1864. They bought land in 1865 in Soldier Canyon, outside of Stockton, and started a cattle ranch. That ranch later became known as the Scribner Ranch, when Newell and Violet were married and he took over its operation (referred to as "one of the most prosperous ranches" in Utah). Violet ran a boarding house for miners, and there was a school held for the small children.
A grove of trees close to this property was for many years a favorite picnic spot for Stockton residents (Ouida Blanthorn [comp.], A HISTORY OF TOOELE COUNTY [Utah State Historical Society, Tooele County Commission, 1998], 296).

In the early 1900's, Newell and family moved to Salt Lake City, where he continued his livestock trading business. Their home was located at 1248 East First South Street. The children attended East Side High School.
Violet had previously been married (1871) to Alexander McIntyre. They had a son, Arthur, born in 1878. Arthur lived with Newell and Violet throughout their lifetimes. He died in 1937.
