Newson/Lewis AGAIN ! *completed*

[Langdon-Northamp]

Hi John,
Someone was wondering about a connection with smith - re Newon CKA Lewis
try: 1864 Norwich (Norfolk)  Thomas Hunter Newson marrying Emma Smith ??
It's worth a try.
I am also trying to trace Alfred Newson ............a bit of a lad I think.
He is very hard to trace.

Hi Sandra

... welcome.   

Hoping John will pop back to this thread soon.   [We're missing him ... expect though he's soaking up the Nelson sunshine ? ]

Mmm ... I'm thinking that the word *completed* in this topic title, it should be replaced by *complicated*.   

I've read through it all again to refresh my memory, and have done some more digging.
Have a whole lot more info, (in respect of NEWSON/LEWIS and the Sarah's ), which I'll add tomorrow.

In the meantime, do you happen to have details from the cert. (or printout), for the marriage of Sarah NEWSON to Charles Martin DAWSON, please ?

We sent for a cert, but it never gave us a lot of detail.  It showed Sarah as Sarah Newson and it did not name her parents as far as I can remember. I will try to find it, but goodness knows where it is.
I would like to know what happened to her sister, Susannah Maude.  That is a real mystery.

Hi again

>  Do you maybe have a birth certificate for one of Sarah and Charles Frederick's children - which confirms Sarah NEWSON's place of birth ?

--------------------

I have a lot of detailed (new) information for the NEWSON family who arrived per the "La Hogue" (1874) which I'll begin posting shortly ... just need to get it into some sort of order so that it can be followed easily.

Hi again

 ... just adding ... Sarahs' age (as shown on birth cert. for one of her children) would be helpful too.

 

[Langdon-Northamp]

I can remember all the details as being inconsistent.  Every child, when it was born, the mother's age seemed different.  When Sarah died, she died in 1964.  email me ^(*)

I have sent for documents over the years and they tell us nothing.
Sarah Elizabeth Newson Wife/Mother is buried at St Johns, Upper Hutt.
There appears to be no headstone.
Sarah (daughter)  married Charles Martin Dawson and lived at Orua Downs, Bulls, Rangitikei.
That was after Charles Frederick Langdon disappeared.

Hello again

Don't worry too much about Sarah Elizabeth and Sarah NEWSON, as I said, I have new information on their backgrounds which I'll add here, because I'm sure that John will be interested in that aspect. 

Earlier you had given an account about Sarah (Newson / Langdon) - where you'd mentioned she had a brother named Thomas who'd been adopted out ... and that another brother, Robert, had lived "around Rangitikei". ??

I haven't been able to find "a brother named Thomas" for Sarah ... so I'm merely curious about what info you already have and whether your Sarah is indeed the same girl who arrived on the "La Hogue" in 1874.    Hence my asking about info on her marriage to Charles Martin DAWSON ... or if there were any clues from her children's births certs. which might give an indication as to her real age at given times or confirm her place of birth.   

[The Sarah NEWSON I have (and NEWSON wasn't actually her birth name), was born late in 1858. So if she is the same Sarah who died in 1964, then she was approaching her 106th birthday ! ]
