Barbara, I think that I have seen your Newsoms on charts which are on web pages. I will find those charts and get back to you. Paul, Thank you for the reminder about Newsom's Station. I have seen it on maps but do not know how my line is connected to it and have never been there. Is it noted for anything special? Many thanks to Ann for doing the census look-up. Now for the first time I know the names of my gr gr grandparents were John A. and Elizabeth M. Newsom. John was born either 1824 or 1804, and Elizabeth 1824. If anyone out there has these Newsoms on a chart, I would appreciate hearing from you. Janice Branch Fox
