Re: John Andrew Jackson Newby

Beulah Newby was a 2nd cousin to my grandmother. John and Ida were her 1st cousins. I have pictures of all Beulah, John and Ida. My grandmother was Emma D. Coleman, the daughter of Stephen L. Coleman and Mary Newby (Thompson W. F, Thompson, Whaley, Henry, Henry).

Mary married Stephen Coleman 30 May 1873 in Williamson Co., Tn (Tn marriages)

Mary was born 1853 in Texas (per 1880 Tipton Co., Tn census, but more than likely born in Tn.)

Stephen lives by (possible brother, cousin?) J. Calvin Coleman in 1880 census of Tipton co, Tn.

I believe that J Calvin is the son of Warner Archer Coleman and Massey Pennel, but I can't find Stephen's parents, wondering if he is related to Warner because of living next door to J Calvin.

Since Stephen and Mary were married in Willionson Co., perhaps he was related (grandson?) to Joseph Coleman line.

There is a Samuel C. Coleman in the 1860 Williamson Co. TN census with a Stephen age 12.

Another family that comes close is Hardy C. Coleman 1860 Lincoln Co. Tn. Census. There is a Calvin and a Stephen, but Calvin is older, unlike the 1880 Tipton Co. census where Stephen is older.

Birth dates vary on Stephen, as well as his name(s).

1880 Tipton Co., Tn census age 28, born 1851-1853 possible.

1900 Rains Co., TX census Sell L. Coleman age 67, born 1833 (married 13 years to Andrews, 27 yrs. old).

On his tombstone it reads S L Coleman 1838-1915 (with no exact date MM/DD).

I'll make an educated guess that 1851 - 1853 is correct.

Any info you can share that might head me in the right direction will be appricated.

Re: WHALEY NEWBY 1724-1799 & ELIZABETH THOMPSON- son Henry

dtodd1960 — 2012-02-10 00:10:15Z

Our family records say that Henry, son of Whaley and Elizabeth, married Susanna Mary Pryor. After research on ancestry I found a record of this marriage,

(U.S. and International Marriage Records, 1560-1900

Name: Henry Newby
Gender: Male
Birth Place: VA
Birth Year: 1772
Spouse Name: Susanah Pryor
Spouse
Birth Place: NC
Spouse Birth Year: 1774
Marriage State: of KY
Number Pages: 1

but no mention of a Mary Pollard.

Additionally, the 1850 census shows a Henry Newby, aged 78 living in Buchanan, Platte County, MO. This is important as his son Nathan lived in Platte County as well.

1850 United States Federal Census

Name: Henry Newby
Age: 78
Birth Year: abt 1772
Birthplace: Kentucky
Home in 1850: Platte, Buchanan, Missouri
Gender: Male
Family Number: 691
Household Members:
Name Age
Henry Newby 78

I also found a death record for a Henry Newby dated 26 Mar 1851 in Buchanan County, MO.

Name: Henry Newby
Death Date: 26 Mar 1851
County: Buchanan
State: MO
Country: USA

A new search for other Newby researchers on ancestry pulled up 24 family trees dealing with this family. Almost all of them (20) support his marriage to Susannah or Susanna Mary Pryor, and none of them mention a Mary Pollard.

Very curious!

Hi.
I have been exploring the Patterson Newbys and keep coming up with different results. It's most frustrating! As you say there are so many names that are repeated and it gets very confusing. I still can't link the Newby Pattersons to my Newbys but there must be a link or how did they get into my tree!
Please let me know if you discover any new information and I will do the same for you.
Best wishes
Sarah.

Re: NEWBY in Durham and York, ENGLAND, UK

hazfor1 — 2011-07-11 15:59:26Z

Did you get my invitation to view my tree a little while ago?

When I was very involved in researching I came to the conclusion that my Great Great Great Grandfather was John Newby b1797 in Yarmouth(m Hannah Boldeston) and that he had brothers Robert Patterson Newby (m Charlotte Gardiner), William Patterson Newby, Charles Patterson Newby (m Martha Gayfer) and sisters Elizabeth Newby (m John Howard) and Ann Newby (m Thomas Palmer).

John b1797 and Hannah had a son James Newby b1837 who was my Great Great Grandfather. One of their daughters was Sarah Ann Newby - she married into the Whincop family - m Richard Newby Whincop b 1832. This is Richard Newby Whincop's ancestry as far as I can work out:

James Newby b 1740 (m Ann Patterson), which is where the name seems to begin in the family. They had a John Patterson Newby b 1764 (m Charlotte Garwood). They had a son John Patterson Newby b1800 (m Hannah Cox), Christiana Patterson Newby, Mary Ann Hannah Newby and Charlotte Patterson Newby b1802. This Charlotte married Philip Whincop and they had amongst others Richard Newby Whincop b1832 (mentioned above, marrying Sarah Ann Newby)

It is so complicated, with the same names cropping up down the generations. The first set of people may have been cousins in some way with the second set, as both lines have Patterson in their names, but I couldn't find that link.
I could be wrong of course, but I did a lot of cross-checking.

Re: NEWBY in Durham and York, ENGLAND, UK

sarahschenk700 — 2011-07-09 17:43:10Z

I've noticed your name when I've been researching my Newby tree and think we must be following the same lines of research. Did you ever find the connection between the Newbys and the Patterson Newbys. I don't even know how they got onto my tree! It would be good to exchange information, if you'd care to.
Best wishes
Sarah.

Re: Pittslyvania County Newby

Correction

Claude Newby parents were Charles Newby and Florence Childrey...George Newby was Charles's father

Re: Pittslyvania County Newby

marthaleee — 2011-07-08 18:13:39Z

My father:Claude Newby…his parents were George Newby and Mary Hands….George’s parents were Albert ‘Apt” Newby and Sally Yeatts…
Albert’s father was Asa Newby married to Mary ‘Polly’ Madding and Asa’s parents were John Newby [1759-1853]married to Martha Ferguson…and I think that William married to Martha Adkins were John’s parents.

Before William I have no connections that I can find so far…would appreciate any help that you can offer from your research, or names of anyone that might help. There is a Bob Newby on the board who is a wonderfully kind man and he has done a lot of research on his Newby family, which is not the same as mine.

If you have any ideas/thoughts/info, I would love to continue to correspond.

Re: Pittslyvania County Newby

MMeadPond — 2011-07-07 07:01:46Z

Hi, I don't know if we're tracking the same family or not…but here goes.

I'm descended from LeRoy Newby,GGG-grandfather, whose parents were supposedly William NEWBY and Martha "Patsy" ADKINS. LeRoy had four sisters, Nancy G., Phebe Farmer, and Susanna C. According to another researcher who spent considerable time tracking this family in Chesterfield Co. VA, father William abandoned wife and family and took off to the wilderness to start another Newby family. (I don't know the details.)

This is the Newby Wedding record:

1796. William NEWBY and Martha ADKINS. Married by Rev. Eleazar Clay, Baptist. Minister's Returns, p. 384 Thompson, Mrs. J. Frank. COURT RECORDS OF CHESTERFIELD CO., VA, PERTAINING TO THE FRANKLIN, BRINTLE, BRIDGEWATER, NUNNALLY AND RELATED FAMILIES. [1954],p.90

LeRoy married Mahala Springfield in Greenville, South Carolina. LeRoy was born about 1799 and died in 1845.
He and Mahala had William, Thomas, Franklin Perry, Mary P., Mahala E., Susan Jane, and Minnie Evaline.

Mary P. Newby married DeMarcus Roland POOL (Pettipool/P'Pool, P. POOL).

I believe LeRoy came to the Abbeville area before meeting Mahala and moved up to Greenville after their marriage.

I'd love to hear from you, Maureen

I have several relatives from Pittsylvania County who eventually moved to or were incorporated into Halifax County. The last Newby that I am sure of is John Newby (1759-1853)---married Martha Ferguson...I believe his father may be William who was married to Martha Adkins. Surely would appreciate anyone who is a member of this family or knows about the family contacting me. Thank you.

HAYS-NEWBY--Jan 1, 1906, at high noon, at the home of the bride’s mother, Mrs. Amanda Newby, Edward S. Hays of Agency, Missouri and Florence Newby of this city. Rev. L. H. Humpreys officiating.
The house was beautiful with a pin and white decoration scheme. Curtains of smilax and pink and white carnations covering the wall where the bridal pair stood.
Only the immediate relatives and her intimate friends witnessed the ceremony.
Miss Newby has long been a member of the teaching corps of this city. Faithful, conscientious and skillful have been her efforts in all lines along which her energy has been directed.
A valued member of the Fortnightly club, a prominent member of the Lady Maccabees and a faithful worker in the church circles, her place will be hard to fill. The new community in which she is to make her home is fortunate to add her to its circle.
The groom is a newspaper man editor of the Agency Democrat and bears an enviable repute in his home state.
The gifts wee many and valuable attesting the esteem in which Mr. and Mrs. Hays are held. A crowd of friends bade them God speed amid a shower of “luck bringing rices” as the boarded the train for their future home in Agency Missouri, at 4:30 p. m.

1916 Reminiscences by Thomas T. Newby of Rush Co., IN

amuething — 2011-02-17 12:28:38Z

To all who might find this of interest, there is a transcription of a first hand account of pioneer life in Rush County, Indiana given by Thomas Newby in 1916. It is a fascinating read, even if you are not a Newby relative, which I am not. I simply came across it in my research and wanted to pass it on. It can be found here: http://www.hancocknews.com/reminiscences_of_a_pioneer.htm

The story is very detailed and mentions many families of the Carthage area.

Thomas was b. 1834 the son of Henry and Sarah Newby. The story indicates the Newbys came from North Carolina. Thomas married Parthena Jane Griffin, and they had a daughter, Sarah.

Re: Where in England?

anewby_1 — 2011-02-06 14:38:42Z

My husbands family are Newby'
Have traced their tree back to 1600's - they all came from County Durham or Northumbria.

According to historical records the name means Village 'New-by' and originates from Scandinavia.

There is a Newby Hall in county Durham and that area is where I have found a number of ancesters, no relations found there but it is a recognised fact that like the slavery era people often took their 'masters' surname.
- although I have also found some migrated down south, mainly mariners.
