Isaac married Jemima Chambers. Jemima was born before 1737; died after 1798. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Mel Morris has her date of birth as 1757. If he is correct, she was 20 years younger than her husband, and most likely NOT the mother of his older children.

Notes:

He has often been shown as a son of Abraham and Rachel NEWTON, and a descendant of Richard NEWTON who immigrated to Sudbury, MA from Lincolnshire, England about 1639. However, Merle Newton emailed, in February 2013, that he had "discovered that they didn't originate in Southbourough MA as some have reported--disproven by DNA tests."

In 1769, Abraham served on the jury for a murder trial in Deplin Co., NC. Abraham was living with or near his four sons in 1779 in Duplin Co., NC, where all five signed a petition for the formation of Sampson Co. from Duplin Co. It is thought that Sarah was in NC also. There is an obituary for a Mrs. Sarah Newton in the Cape Fear Mercury, 29 Dec. 1773. It is assumed that this was Sarah Graves Newton and that she died sometime in Dec. 1773. All four of the sons in NC were in the Revolutionary War.

Abraham married Sarah Graves. Sarah was born about 1715; died about Dec 1773. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

It appears likely that Sarah Graves was a daughter of or closely related to Thomas Graves, descended from Samuel Graves of Lynn, MA. Thomas was born 16 Dec. 1686 in Lynn, MA, moved from Lynn to Reading,. MA as early as 1724, and moved to Southboro, MA in 1738. His son, Joseph Graves, b. 1717, m (1) Mary Newton in 1745, and m (2) Lydia Newton in 1758. Perhaps Sarah was a daughter not previously listed.

Notes:

Married:
Four of their sons (Isaac, Jacob, George, and Samuel) moved to NC in the 1750's and settled Newton Cross Roads in New Hanover Co., NC. In 1769, Abraham served on the jury for a murder trial in Deplin Co., NC. Abraham was living with or near his four sons in 1779 in Duplin Co., NC, where all five signed a petition for the formation of Sampson Co. from Duplin Co. It is thought that Sarah was in NC also.
