Joseph Hewes was a signer of the Declaration of Independence from North Carolina. He was engaged to marry Isabella Johnston as a young man. She died a few days before their planned wedding. He was grief stricken and never married for the rest of his life. Later he indicated in his diary that he never planned to remain single and that he felt lonely as a result.
