Barbara, my gggrandfather, Thomas J. Newton was a doctor in the Piney Flats, TN. Sullivan Co. area in the mid-1840's. He was born in 1815/1816 in TN according to the 1860 Census. I have a copy of that Census if you're interested. But, that's all I know about him. I hope to do some more searching this summer. I would be interested in hearing if you know anthing about this Newton clan. Faye
