Notes
General:
301106: There is a great deal of information to be found on this family on the web. Rosemary West has a Rootsweb family tree which is well referenced: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=rkwest&id=I 154642
She also has her own Newcomb home page: http://www.thenewcombs.org/
These are the Notes she includes on her Rootsweb page: Title: Andrew Newcomb and His Descendants: A Revised Edition of "Genealogical Memoir" of the Newcomb Family by John Bearse Newcomb Author: Bethuel Merritt Newcomb Publication: New Haven CT, The Tuttle, Morehouse & Taylor Co., 1923 Title: Source Notes for Online Visitors Publication: Dear Rootsweb and Ancestry visitors, ALL my sources are listed with the records. I'm not hiding anything, so there is no need to email me asking me what my sources are. Just read them here. If there are no sources listed it probably means the original source information was, unfortunately, lost. In some cases, information that has come from the census records is not footnoted separately, but the censusinformation is included as an event or note (usually with the head ofhousehold's entry). If you think my information is wrong, I am very happy to get friendly corrections and updates. I am always trying to improve this information. Thanks for your understanding and help.
