Surnames: Newitt Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/YB3.2ACEB/21 Message Board Post: After a long time of thinking all my Newitts were from Northants, I seem at last to have found an Oxfordshire link: The 1851 census index for Northampton All Saints gives James Newitt born c. 1787 somewhere in OXF. According to the same source, his wife Susannah (nee DAY) was born in Birmingham in around 1791. They married in St Mary Le Strand in Westminster on 25th December 1811 and were living in Northampton by the 1820s. Can anyone help to identify James further? Unfortunately the census gives only the county of birth, not the parish. Rebecca Davies
