    1. [NEWTON] DODD - NEWTON Family Photograph
    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph identified as Minnie DODD and Edwin NEWTON which was taken at the J. S. Potter Studio in Portland, Oregon. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's or 1890's with Minnie likely in her 20's or 30's and Edwin appearing to be younger, may be in his teens. I am hoping to locate someone from the family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

    3. Hi Folks, Reporting Node 29, which existing participant thereof claims as descent that seen below. Node 29 is very close to the existing Node R, and thus it is likely that it descends from it. Node R is that of Rev. Roger Newton, also of Connecticut. Investigation will be ongoing in an effort to determine from which line of descent 29 descends from R. FTDNA#156044 8 Cyrus Newton Born: 05 DEC 1776, Connecticut. Married: Deborah Doane. Died: Aft 1860, Chenango County, New York. 7 Luther Sidney Newton Born: 10 NOV 1800, Connecticut.

    1. Re: [NEWTON] DNA Project updates (answering Monty's questions)
    2. Gregg Bonner
    3. Hi Folks, There are two different dates given on the Project webpage for revision dates. First, there is the date associated with "All project data", which is the link near the top of the Project webpage. Second, there is the date associated with last update of the webpage, which is given at the bottom of the Project webpage, just above my e-mail address. The 24 OCT 2006 date is referring to "all project data", and not "last update". I was confused because the verbiage in Monty's post quoted "last update", but gave the date associated with "all project data". The "last update" refers to the last time I revised the HTML at the Project webpage, even if it is just to correct a typo. But sometimes I make the revision, and forget to update the "last update" date stamp. In any case, it now reads 02 JUN 2009, as that is the last time I changed it. The "All project data" date (24 OCT 2006) is just the date associated with the last time all the Y-chromosome measurements (regardless of which lab did the testing, and how many markers were tested) were compiled into a single source document. The reason there is a main Project webpage with a results table, and also an "All project data" table is that there is need to represent two different widths of tables. In the main Project results table, only the first 25 markers are shown because of browser width limitations, even if participants tested at 37 or 67 markers. Having a data table 67 columns wide would cause readability problems for the non-tabular parts of the webpage. Since the other is just tabular data, it is okay to represent it in all its excessive width. The reason the "All project data" link has not been revised since the date given is because all data produced subsequent to that date is reflected in the data presented in the other link, that is to say, here: http://www.familytreedna.com/public/newton/default.aspx?section=yresults Thus the "all project data" really only serves as an archive for participants' DNA values beyond 25 markers where they tested somewhere other than FTDNA. I figured I would give the interested 3rd party a shot at all the values, even though interpretation has been possible in 25 markers in every case so far. Best, Gregg > > Why does the link provided - take me > > to the results page - that reads 'last updated > > 10/24/06.".

    3. Hi Greg,   Just tried the "refresh" method of bringing up the 02 June 2009 page and it didn't work; still says 2006.   Connie   Descended from Rev. Richard Newton through Roswell Newton - 1752 (Rev. War ancestor)and his son Roswell Newton - 1791.   PS  Two years ago, I told my boss, Sterling E. "Ernie" Norris, Esq., I was going to DAR's Continental Congress in Washington DC.  He said that his mother was DAR and could I get a copy of her Application as he didn't know who his Rev. War Ancestor was.  At the DAR Library, I found his mother's Application and that his Rev. War ancestor, Sgt. Reuben Beach, crossed the Delaware with Washington, fought under Lafayette, and was discharged by Gen. Washington!  This year, Ernie's youngest daughter decided to join DAR so I did some more genealogical research and found that Ernie is my 9th cousin, once removed as we both descend from Rev. Richard Newton.  What's even funnier is that we had worked together seven years before Ernie told me that his mother was DAR.  As a labor of love, I found that Ernie and his girls have six other Rev. War ancestors. --- On Mon, 6/22/09, Gregg Bonner <greggbonner@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Gregg Bonner <greggbonner@yahoo.com> Subject: [NEWTON] DNA Project updates (answering Monty's questions) To: newton@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, June 22, 2009, 2:03 PM Hi Monty, I believe you have a stale copy of the Project's HTML page in your browser's cache.

    1. [NEWTON] DNA Project updates (answering Monty's questions)
    2. Gregg Bonner
    3. Hi Monty, I believe you have a stale copy of the Project's HTML page in your browser's cache. If you load that page and then click the "refresh" button, then I think that you'll see that the last update date is 02 JUN 2009. At least that is the case for the Project website, which is here: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gbonner/newtondna/ For those who test at FTDNA (and sign the consent form), their results will "just show up" at this page: http://www.familytreedna.com/public/newton/default.aspx?section=yresults So your results will be put there automatically once they are in. But those are only the FTDNA results. Nothing just shows up at the Project webpage at RootsWeb. I have to code those pages, since I need to bring together data from multiple testing companies. Your results will show on the RootsWeb site as soon as the data is in, and I have the other data required to make your personal page (to see an example, click the name of an existing participant in the results table of the RootsWeb Project page). You can "get the latest" data for FTDNA samples at the familytreedna link above. For samples from other labs, or other things, the best way to get the news is to simply ask on this list as you have done.

    3. Why does the link provided - take me to the results page - that reads 'last updated 10/24/06.". Is this true? I sent in my DNA kit a few weeks ago - will the 'results' just show up? and how can I get the latest? Monty Newton, P.G. Technical Coordinator Site Remediation >>> Gregg Bonner <greggbonner@yahoo.com> 6/5/2009 9:14 PM >>> Hi Folks, We have for some time known the DNA type of Richard Newton of Sudbury, Massachusetts (c. 1605 - 1701). He is well represented by the node J participants in the Project. We now have a sample from a participant who descends from his son, John Newton. This DNA unsurprisingly agrees very well with what we had established already, but differs slightly in the first 12 markers, so it gets a new Node, which, since I ran out of letters, is going to be called 'Node "27"'. Thus the original Richard is now represented by the composite node called "J/27". We now have samples from descendants of 3 of Richard Newton's sons.

    1. [NEWTON] DNA Project: Vol. 44 (John Newton son of Richard Newton of Sudbury: Node J/27)
    2. Gregg Bonner
    3. Hi Folks, We have for some time known the DNA type of Richard Newton of Sudbury, Massachusetts (c. 1605 - 1701). He is well represented by the node J participants in the Project. We now have a sample from a participant who descends from his son, John Newton. This DNA unsurprisingly agrees very well with what we had established already, but differs slightly in the first 12 markers, so it gets a new Node, which, since I ran out of letters, is going to be called 'Node "27"'. Thus the original Richard is now represented by the composite node called "J/27". We now have samples from descendants of 3 of Richard Newton's sons. While it is unlikely that the mutation which changed the node from J to 27 happened between Richard and John himself (that is only one of 11 "begats") it is possible that this DNA type will lead to a litmus test for descent from John Newton, son of Richard. In any case, this mutation allows for the parsing of the internal structure of the descent tree provided any other descendant of John Newton ever tests. Moreover, it demonstrates that any descendant tree can be parsed - in principle - provided enough people test enough markers. The Project homepage is here: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gbonner/newtondna/ Cheers, Gregg Bonner NEWTON Surname DNA Project Group Administrator P.S. We still have 6 samples with data, but which lack descent information AND/OR consent to release data.

    3. Hi Gregg, Just wanted to advise you I have ordered an upgrade to 67 markers. I told Myron Newton about it and he ordered his upgrade also. I am also in the Scot DNA project. I guess some of the FTDNA people are going to Scotland this summer during the their large clan gathering.

    2. Gregg Bonner
    3. Hi Folks, Those of you who have followed along with the growth of the NEWTON Surname DNA Project know that each "new" type of NEWTON DNA gets its own category, or node, and that the letters increment as that happens. Well, we have reached "Z", and so I guess I'll need to give some thought to what to do now. I guess next will be "AA". Inelegant, to be sure, but these are good problems to have. This dilemma is much better than being this far down the road and only having a few types tested. The type "Z" NEWTON DNA is associated with a participant who claims descent from one Israel Newton, born circa 1790, Wayne County, Kentucky, died circa 1840, Cole County, Missouri. As more sample come in, we hope to confirm this data, confirm results from other shared descents, and to get even more new types in. The project also has six samples tested for whom the claimed descent has not been identified AND/OR the consent to publish the results has not yet been given. I hope that those will be added to the project homepage soon. The homepage is here: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gbonner/newtondna/ Best, Gregg
