Individual Details

Thomas Newman Jr.

(Abt, 1648 - Bet 1704 and 1707)

Additional information from: Melanie McKinzie, 2003, with the following notes:

From "Gleanings of Virginia History," pp 246-147: Thomas Newman, Jr. only son of Thomas the immigrant, born in Virginia, is frequently mentioned in the records of Richmond county, and by will and descent acquired nearly all the Newman property in the Northern Neck of Virginia. He conveyed Moratico to John Tarplay in 1700, and the deed shows that he lived in Littenbourne (Littenbourne parish), probably on the place given him by his father, and recites that the lands conveyed were given by Capt. Alexander Newman, in his last will and testament. As, at the time of his death, there were three Thomas Newmans in Richmond county: the immigrant, his son and grandson, Tarplay instituted an inquiry, in 1711, to ascertain who was the Thomas to whom Capt. Alexander Newman devised Moratico. This inquiry is of record at Warsaw and contains the testimony of Capt. William Woodbridge, William Fitzherbert, Dominick Benneham, Mrs. Winnifred Griffin and George Glasscock. (The inquiry determined that Thomas Newman, Jr. was, indeed, entitled to the land in question.)

See P. E. Newman for extensive account of this family.
