He never went to sea again, and ended up as a newspaper seller on the streets of his native Southampton. In 1965, depressed following the recent death of his wife, he hanged himself from the washing line in his back garden- he was 78 years old. He was buried in an unmarked grave up until 1993, when the Titanic Society Inc. paid for him to have a headstone.
Jewell went on to serve in the Merchant Navy in WW1, but died when his ship the Donegal was torpedoed in the English Channel on 17th April 1917.
