Chester is listed as a son of Eber in the book "Newton Genealogy" by Ermina Leonard pp755-756. Much of Leonard's book is based on personal correspondence so it may not be possible to find her sources.

His son Henry Newton is listed in the 1860 census with his siblings; Sylvia, William, Oradel, and Della. Henry's father, Chester was the son of  Eber Newton, b. 1799,m.Silvia Webber, abt. 1822/23. Also married Ann Post, in 1832. Eber's father was Dudley Newton, m.Salley Whitlaw. Dudley's father was Asahel Newton, m. married, Hannah Dietz, Delight Chapman and Versalle Booth. Asahel's father was Israel Newton, m.Hannah Butter. Israel's Father was James Newton, married Mary Hubbel. James's father was Thomas Newton,m ? Thomas's father was Abel Newton m. Joan Smith. Abel's father was Thomas Newton, m. Alice lived in Essex England. Chester's census record puts them in Friendship, Fond du Lac WI in 1860 census and his probable birth date as 1827.His marriage record in Laport Ohio does not list his parents and his father Eber does not show a child named C! hester as being born to Eber. Do I have the wrong ancesters for Chester. I have searched every census, family history file and website and cannot connect this dot.  ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to NEWTON-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
