Hi Donn, Looks like our emails crossed paths.  Here are a couple of other items to consider: 1. Joseph Newton (b. bef 1741 d. aft 1771) son of Clement Newton Jr (b. 1718 d. 1760). He and his wife Mildred had the following children Catholic Families of Southern Maryland St. Andrews Episcopal - Children of Joseph Newton and Mildred Rhodolph - 13 May 1763 John Shadrach - 1 Jan 1767 James - 11 Feb 1769 Jesuit Missions Baptisims at St. Francis Xavier: 10/12/1771: Baptism of Jeremiah Newton, son of Joseph and Mildred. GP: Richard and Cloe Clarke. (Jesuit Missions). Joseph Newton being the son of Clement Newton. GP Richard and Cloe Clark. I have a problem with Mildred being Mildred Knott daughter of William Knott and Ann Mattingly as Deci states on her web site. This girl was born between 1720 and 1737. I just think that she was a little too old for the children, the last of which was born in 1771. Also, I have this note in my file: By his own hand, Ethelbert Cissell stated he was the son of John Cissell and Miss (her name was Mary) Newton. Just this year, one of Ethelbert's descendants died and left, via her will, a book called "Memoirs of Myself" written by Ethelbert Cissell. This is now in the hands of the St. Mary's County Historical Society. In this book he also stated that his mother's brother was Joseph Newton who married a Miss Greenwell, who had a small fortune. Mary Newton and Joseph Newton (he m. Mildred Greenwell) were the children of Clement Newton and wife, Elizabeth. They had a son named Adelbert or Delbert Newton. So, I believe that Mildred was a Greenwell or maybe a widow Greenwell but I do not know who she is. 2. As for Mary Newton who married John Booth, I stronly feel that she was his second wife and they married shortly after her father wrote his will. My reasons for this are the dates of birth for John Booths children and Thomas Newton Jr.'s will. Will or Thomas Newton, Jr. signed 27 Mar 1772, proved 15 Sep 1772 ......"my three youngest Children, Equally, Viz Elizabeth Newton, Clement Newton and Mary Newton, my will and meaning is that my wife keep with her my three youngest Children till they are able to shift for themselves" Children of John Booth: Births Recorded at St. Andrews for John Booth and Mary: Elizabeth 14 Mar 1762 Jane 14 Aug 1763 Rodolph 30 Nov 1765 John Baptist 10 Mar 1768 Ann 10 Feb 1770 === 12 Jul 1772 - BP St. Francis Xavier - Mathew Booth of John and Mary - GP William Newton anbd Mary Shirley What I am wonder is .... Did Mary Newton marry John, the son of John Booth?
