Cheryl, There are no Newcomb marriages listed on the NEHGS Mass Vital Records for 1886-1890. Since there is a missing marriage volume, I suspect that is why they don't show. You can get the Family History Library microfilm that shows the State Vital Record for Hattie McLaughlin's death. That film is number 961508, Deaths v. 429. Unfortunately, it won't give the burial location. A better route might be to order the City of Boston Death Index, Death Index L-Z 1892-1900, FHL number 836029. Once you have the item number, you can go to the FHL catalog, under Massachusetts, Suffolk, Boston - Vital Records, and order the microfilm that includes that item. You can also use the City of Boston Marriage Index to find the first marriage and then order the film with the item. With the NEHGS database missing the Newcomb names, it would just be too hard to page through each image for a couple of years to look for their marriage. Best of luck on your search.
