I am looking for any information on Elizabeth NEWTON and her family. Elizabeth was born about 1831 and christened 5 June 1831 in Great Missenden, Bucks, UK. Her parents were Hemry NEWTON and Sarah AUSTIN, married 26 December 1813, their other children were: Hanah christened 14 May 1814 James christened 13 July 1817 David christened 2 April 1820 William christened 24 June 1822 Mary christened 7 September 1828 Caroline christened 7 February 1836 Caroline was a witness at Elizabeth's marriage in1857 to Thomas EXLER. Any information or contacts gratefully appreciated. Anita in London UK

I have a cousin who claims to have traced our Newton family back to Linconshire, England. Problem is, he does not have any documentation and belongs to the "if it don't fit force it" club so I question his research. I would like to ask if anyone has a Newton family from Lincolshire who had a Rueben Newton, Sr., 1750. He was in Caswell Co, NC and Persons Co. NC in 1770. Rueben, Sr. died in Hardin Co., Ky. abt. 1820. I have reason to believe he had brothers named Benjamin and Peter Newton who are shown on the Mercer Co. 1800 Census with one of Rueben, Sr. daughters named Rachel. She is listed as a widow. Thanks.

Thank you, Reilly. This is my line and I will contact the author.

One last thing - Ebenezer Newton died in Rutherford Co., NC in 1812, and not SC, if I am not mistaken. He left a will there, dated April 1811, naming his wife and surviving children.

I have several earlier references to Ebenezer Newton in PA, and want to share them with others on the Newton List that are interested in this particular line: The first New World record of Ebenezer Newton is on April 30, 1751, when he was among the signers of a petition in Chanceford Township, York Co., PA. ( from “Special Publication Number 1, April 1981. Surviving Early Records of York Co., PA. More Precisely Being Abstracts of all Known Existing Documents Submitted to York County Court of Quarter Sessions During 1749-1754, Plus An All-Inclusive Surname Index,” compiled and published by the South Central PA Genealogical Society, Inc., PO Box 1824, York, PA 17405, case # 26 (p. 8 of the supplement). He’s listed here as “Elenasa Nuton.”) On October 30, 1753, he was among the signers of another petition in the same township, this one complaining about the road between Chanceford and Connistogoes in Lancaster Co. PA. Also among the signers are William Buchannan and William Buchanan. (from “Special Publication Number 1, April 1981. Surviving Early Records of York Co., PA. More Precisely Being Abstracts of all Known Existing Documents Submitted to York County Court of Quarter Sessions During 1749-1754, Plus An All-Inclusive Surname Index,” compiled and published by the South Central PA Genealogical Society, Inc., PO Box 1824, York, PA 17405, case #69, p. 17-18 of the supplement. Here he ’s listed as Ebenezer Nuton.) In 1754 Ebenezer Newton purchased 100 acres on March 14, and another 200 acres later that same year, in Hellam Township, PA. This land was situated on both sides of the Conawage Branch of the Susquehanna River. (The Way of the Leaf, by Ted R. Newton, Butler Books, Louisville, KY, 1994, p. 31) In 1757, Ebenezer was a defendant in a court case in York Co., PA in the July Term of the Court of Common Pleas. ( Special Publication No. 46, July/Oct. 1991: Abstracts from Common Pleas Docket, York Co., PA April term 1757 through July Term 1761, abstracted and compiled by David P. Hively, and published by the South Central PA Genealogical Society, Inc, PO Box 1824, York, PA 17405, p. 8. Docket #60 William Plumsted, Esqr. Register General, for the use of Wm. Grey vs. Ebenezer Newton, David McKinley & Wm. Thompson.) The next record of Ebenezer and his wife is the tax assessment of 1762, York Co., PA, Shrewsbury Township. It is this land that was adjacent to William Buchanan. Thus sometime between the first deed and 1762, he had moved 25-30 miles south. (Historical Southern Families (Vol. 21), edited by Mrs. John Bennett Boddie, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., Baltimore, 1976, p. 3.)

Another good reference is "The Way of the Leaf. The History of Generations of Families with the name Newton and other Associated Family Names Dating to 1066 A.D.," by Ted. R. Newton, published in 1994 by the author. This book deals primarily with the descendants of Ebenezer Newton and his wife Elizabeth Buchanan (described below, in the earlier message), and researches their ancestors as well. Those researching this Newton line will find the book useful, in my opinion, and can reach the author at: 4601 Brownsboro Rd. Louisville, KY 40207 1-502-893-8319. The author believes that Ebenezer (b. 1725 PA - d. 1812, Rutherford Co., NC) was the son of Benjamin Newton (b. abt. 1688, near Oundle, Northamptonshire, England). I think the book costs $25, but am not sure.

Peggy, I have quite a bit of information on the the Newton's you are researching. I have a Rev. George Newton m. to Anne unknown, also m. to Helen Martin McCall and Mary McCall. He was b. Dec. 1, 1756 in York Co. PA. I also have a Rev. George Newton b. Nov. 7, 1834 in Limestone, Arkansas, d. Oct. 11, 1900 in Ladoga, CA. m. to Harriet Hickey and to a Mary Ann Hamm. I would be happy to send you whatever I have but I have to warn you to definitely double check the information. Somewhere along the line I did something where I ended up accidently mixing up a couple of the people on the tree. It ended up tangling up a couple of sections of the family tree that I am still trying to figure out and untangle! A genealogists worst nightmare! In fact, if anyone else has information on these Newtons and would be willing to share so that I might compare it to mine and see if I can find where I messed up I would be eternally greatful!

Thanks for reply. Barbara

I have no further info on John other than he was baptized 1649 in Oundle Northampton, England, and that he did have three sons. I am not sure which one of them were the father of my Ebenezer. The first records of Ebenezer in USA is in York CO PA 1762, where he and his wife Elizabeth are on a tax assessment. Ebenezer is also listed as executor of the will of William Buchanan, his father in law. Ebenezer died in SC 1812.

Peggy, I am descendant of Rev George Newton. According to "Historical Southern Families Vol 21" My line starts with definite proof of Ebenezer Newton born 1725. The book suggests that he is descendant of John Newton (baptized December 2,1649 in Oundle, Northampton, England) and his father, Robert Newton (baptized Sept 27, 1607) , brother to Isaac Newton (father of Sir Isaac Newton). I know there are several more books out there, but haven't found them yet. Bob

Would this John Newton you mentioned baptized in 1649 be the one that born Kingston 1639 upon Hull Yorkshire, England, died 1712 Stafford VA? I have tried to connect this John with my g x 4 grandfather, John Newton of Rev. War, born 1750-1799 was born in Lunenburg Virginia. There are some Henry Newtons in Essex County VA that might be the connection between the John Newton you mentioned and my John. At some point he and/or children were in Mecklenburg. Isn't there Mecklenburg NC as well as GA? If so, that has caused some confusion. This John had three sons, Isaac, Henry and William. I descend from Henry. I have been meaing to get to the State Archives and look into that volume 21 Historical southern Families.

To Newton Cousins and Namesakes I'm searching for parents and other relatives of Robert Newton b. 1747 Bucks Co., PA; served in Amer. Rev. 1775-1781 in NC Militia, lived in Mecklenburg, NC (not VA) 1775-1799; moved to Buncombe Co., NC 1799; moved to Hopkins Co., KY area abt. 1805, where he died in 1835. He was married to Elizabeth (surname unknown, as are date and place). Children included: Robert Jr., James, John, Elizabeth, Frances. Descendants of Robert Newton lived in Hopkins & Webster counties, KY; Montgomery Co., Ill., & Chariton/Linn Co., MO. Robert seemed to have followed the Rev. George Newton, first from Pennsylvania (Robert was b. in Bucks Co., George in York), then to Mecklenburg Co., NC in 1775 and Buncombe Co. in 1799, two years after the Rev. George moved there. Is it coincidental or could there be a link? There is also a tradition in my family that the Newtons came from Cherokee, or Native American stock but that's all the info I have. I'm willing to share what info I do have. Hope to have a website soon. Peggy Newton [email protected]

John Newton b. N. Carolina??Son Charles Newton 2-16-1810 maybe born in N. Carolina also. Wife Susan Whitehead 1-15-1813 b. Perry County,TN.? Charles had two brothers Jessie and John? Married Perry County, TN. Died in Denton County TX in 1881. Children born in TN include John Whitehead Newton, my ggrandfather, buried in Minter, Texas. John mrried Callie Whitt, Callie and her twin brother n.u., were reared by people named Fincher. They came to Lamar County, TX, year unknown.There were 12 other children of Charles and Susan, besides my ggrandfather. If anyone is interested I will go on with this. Also there are other family members that I have discovered through this forum, and I will refer you to them. My grandmother said the finchers, whitts, Newtons and Whiteheads all came from Dublin, Ireland. I don't know if she meant they sailed from there, or lived there.

Hi there, This is my husband's Newton family from Wright Co., Missouri. I did a quick search and found a web site that shows your Jasper and Dulcenia. It's accurate back to William Newton and Elizabeth Field Newton, for sure. I didn't check further. Jasper Newton was the brother of my husband's Great Grandfather Henry Garrison Newton, so Hi Cousin-in-law! Another great site to research this family is the Wright Co Mo GenWeb. The 1850 census is on line and a very knowledgeable Wright Co. researcher has written extensive notes about the families shown on the census. The Newton family was one of the first to settle Wright Co. They immigrated from Culpeper Va to Davisess Co, KY to Indiana to Mo and on west. A traveling bunch! I'm trying to get all this group into a gen file and put it into a web site. There are several people researching the same branch. I'll see if I can find the sites and I'll post the links for you. Here's the one with Jasper and Dulcenia - http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Plains/6720/tree.html#Newton Grace ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, October 21, 2000 12:49 PM Subject: Newton-McAdoo-Rushing > Have just started searching in-laws family tree.
