Right - though recently most of the Newton list has been with Newtons from SC, et al. The Richard Newton you mention is indeed the one I spoke of. According to my notes on him: LDS files (and others) give 18 JAN 1590 as a date of birth for Richard. Leonard, Ermina Newton, "Newton Genealogy" pub. Bernard Ammidown Leonard, De Pere, Wisconsin, 1915 notes that he was nearly 100 years old when he died in 1701. A more likely date of birth would have been 1603-5. He immigrated to Massachusetts in 1638. (This information from Heidi Goodsite via internet) Richard was born Abt. April 8, 1611 in York, EN - in 1645 he was made a Freeman - From the Web Worldconnect Project - Richard newton b. ABT 1610 in prob. Essex, England, d. 24 Aug 1701 in Marlborough, MA The following is the 'family group sheet' I have for Richard (it does go on a bit): Husband: NEWTON, Richard Born: About 1610, Of Bures St Mary, Suffolk, England Christened: About 1610, Bures St Mary, Suffolk, England Died: 24 August 1701, Southborough, Worcester, Massachusetts Buried: August 1701, Southborough, Worcester, Massachusetts Married: 9 August 1636, Bures St. Mary, Suffolk, England Wife: LOKER, Anne(Hannah) Born: 1 August 1605, Bures Saint Mary, Suffolk, England Christened: 1 August 1605, Bures St Mary, Suffolk, England Died: 5 December 1697, Marlborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Buried: December 1697, Marlboro, Massachusetts (This information from Heidi Goodsite via internet) Marriage in Suffolk Co., England. Sudbury, , MA or Suffolk Co., EN? According to New England Register, Vol. 143, pg. 331 the marriage was in Bures St. Mary, Suffolk, England. (This information from Bob Ingersoll.) Child: NEWTON, Hannah Born: 11 October 1637, Bures St. Mary, Suffolk, England Died: 13 April 1654, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Buried: April 1654, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Christened: 11 October 1637, Bures St. Mary, Suffolk, England Child: NEWTON, John , Sr. Born: 20 October 1641, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Christened: 8 January 1642, Dorchester, Suffolk, Massachusetts Died: 16 October 1723, Marlborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Buried: October 1723, Spouses: LARKIN, Elizabeth (1641-1719) Child: NEWTON, Ezekial Born: 1643, Sudbury, Middlesex, MA Died: 1643, Sudbury, Middlesex, MA Child: NEWTON, Moses , Sr. Born: 20 October 1645, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Christened: 26 March 1646, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Died: 23 May 1736, Southborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Buried: May 1736, Massachusetts Spouses: LARKIN, Joanna (c1647-1713) JOSLIN, Sarah (c1660-1723) Child: NEWTON, Joseph Born: About 1648, Sudbury, Middlesex, Ma, Massachusetts Died: 24 September 1727, Marlborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Buried: 24 September 1727, Marlborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Spouses: WOODS, Katherine (?-) STONE, Ruth (?-) Child: NEWTON, Elizabeth Born: 1650, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Christened: Sudbury, Middlesex, MA Died: 30 March 1718, Marshfield, Plymouth, Massachusetts Buried: 30 March 1718, Marshfield, Plymouth, Massachusetts Spouses: DINGLEY, Jacob (?-) Child: NEWTON, Sarah Born: About 1652, Sudbury, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Died: 1711, Marlborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Spouses: TAYLOR, James (?-) Child: NEWTON, Daniel Born: 21 December 1655, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Died: 29 November 1739, Southborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Buried: 1739, Massachusetts Spouses: MORSE, Sussana (?-) Child: NEWTON, Isaac Born: About 1657, Sudbury, Marlborough, Middlesex, Massachusetts Died: 12 August 1685, Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Buried: 12 August 1685, Spouses: CONCORD, Rebecca (?-) Me again! is this the Isaac you seek? There were a bunch of Isaacs back there, and some even were named Sir Isaac, which is a bit presumptious - the real Sir Isaac had no offspring. I think the New England Register is the most accurate date - they found a church in Suffolk with record of the marriage of Richard and Anne Loker and birth of Hannah (aka Anne?) over there. E.N.Leonard found her death date MA, but no birth and assumed she was one of those born and died the same day. Not so. (Actually, cousin Ermina was usually quite accurate and did it all with mail and travel- an amazing piece of work.) I have a Heritage (Mac genealogy program) file of Newtons from Richard down to Elijah (my gggrandfather), and another from Elijah down to my sister's two great grandchildren. If these would be helpful, I could send you a Gedcom version - which, of course, you can get into any genealogical program.
