   LifeSketch: Abijah Newton b. 21 Jun 1786 in Hubbardston, MA, USA, d. bef 1847 in prb Whitchurch Twp., York, ON d. aft 1871 in prb Tecumseth Twp., Simcoe, ONwton (1816-1896), James Newton (1818-1897), Sarah Newton (1821-aft 1881), Jonas Newton (1825-1908)ren who survived him, the children of Abijah Newton are more speculative. Described below are eight persons who I believe were children of Abijah and Mary Newton. In addition, I found a Hannah Newton who was a witness, together with Wesley Newton, to the marriage of a George Plant of Whitchurch Township in April 1846. This is the only evidence I have found of a person named Hannah Newton in Ontario. She may or may not have been a sibling of the other members of this family. She could have been a wife of one. She could have been the person mentioned above as the sister of Abijah Newton. There is also a “Minor” Newton who was definitely a sibling in this family because he was mentioned as an uncle in the 1885 will of a daughter of George and Sarah “Sally” (Newton) Dean. Although he must have been well known to the writer of the will, I have found no other evidence of anyone named Minor Newton. Based on the proximity of Wesley Newton’s residence in 1871 to that of the person who wrote the will, he may be the person referred to as “Minor” Newton in that will.special relationship between them and the Newton-s I was finding there. Newton-s witnesses Dean marriages and vice versa. George W. Dean was listed on lot 20, concession 3 and Newton-s were listed on the adjacent lot 19, conc. 3 in Whitchurch Township in the 1837 and 1846-47 Directories. I found that George W.’s two oldest sons had married Amanda and Sarah Newton. I found that his second oldest daughter by his second wife, Sarah Ann, had married a Jonas Newton. Although I do not know for sure that Amanda, Sarah and Jonas Newton were siblings, there seems to be plenty of circumstantial evidence that they were.da. After comparing our notes it became apparent that we were both researching the same Newton family. She is descended from Leonora Newton, the eldest daughter of this family. According to the record of the second marriage of Leonora, her parents were Abijah and Mary Newton. Ms. Shore and I believe it is likely that the Abigail Newton shown in Whitchurch Township in the 1937 directory was an erroneous recording of the name Abijah, and that the M. Newton and James Newton shown in the 1846‑47 directory were Abijah’s wife and son. We believe that Abijah died sometime after 1837 and before the 1846‑47 directory was prepared. We have found no evidence of his death or burial.manda (Newton) Dean in Tecumseth Township. According to that census, Mary was born in 1785/86 in the United States.ents of the Newton family and the older children were born in the U.S. It appears that they migrated to Canada about 1818, very close to the same time as did George W. and his family, and that the children born after that time were born in Ontario.mily before 1818. We found an Abijah Newton enumerated in the census taken in 1810 in Ticonderoga, Essex County, State of New York. That household consisted of one male and one female below the age of ten and one male and one female age 16 through 25. The ages of the persons in this household were consistent with this family being the one we were looking for. Ticonderoga is on the border between the States of New York and Vermont.ton, born at Worcester, Mass. on 3 February 1764 who married Tryphena “Phene” Pond in Hubbardston, Mass. on 15 December 1785. She was born at Wrentham, Mass. on 12 August 1769. The book lists two children of Jonas and Tryphena: Abijah Newton, born 21 June 1786 and Hannah Newton, born 12 March 1789, both at Hubbardston. According to this book this family was recorded in the 1790 census at Hubbardston, Mass. Also according to this book the family “Removed, probably to Vermont.” The book traces the ancestry of Jonas back five generations. There is no further information on Abijah or Hannah in the book. There is no proof that the Abijah in this book was the Abijah Newton we found in Ontario, but we believe he was. families together. I found the will of a John Edmonson who died 26 December 1857 in Bradford, Simcoe Co., Ontario. In his will he left “To my sister Jane Dean of Peel … the sum of fifty pounds, to John Dean her son, the sum of fifty pounds, and to Polly Newton my sister, living in Tecumseth, … a like sum of fifty pounds.” The residence of Jane Dean, wife of George W., was actually about a mile west of Peel Township at the time, but all the other facts fit. Polly is a common nickname for Mary. I have no doubt that Jane Dean and Mary/Polly Newton were sisters. If they were sisters then Sarah Ann Dean and Jonas Newton who married in 1845 were first cousins.s Edmondson family beginning with Jane and Mary’s parents, Robert and Jemima Edmiston. It traces them back to Argyle Town(ship), Washington Co., New York State in 1790.om/~ladeanxx/genealogy/famgwd.html
