John Newcomen d1630

 John Billington has the distinction of being the first man hung for murder #1 in New England. The man he killed was "John Newcomen" according to William Bradford. Nothing is known of John Newcomen but he appears to be the first "Newcomb" on record in the New world. The following was written by William Bradford.

This year John Billington the elder, one that came over with the first, was arraigned, and both by grand and petty jury found guilty of wilful murder, by plain and notorious evidence. And was for the same accordingly executed. This, as it was the first execution amongst them, so was it a matter of great sadness unto them. They used all due means about his trial and took the advice of Mr, Winthrop and other the ablest gentlemen in Bay of the Massachusetts, that were then newly come over, who concurred with them that he ought to die, and the land to be purged from blood. He and some of his had been often punished for miscarriages before, being one of the profanest families amongst them; they came from London, and I know not by what friends shuffled into their company. His fact was that he waylaid a young man, one John Newcomen, about a former quarrel and shot him with a gun, whereof he died.
[Bradford's History (1952) 75, 87-8, 156-7, 234, 442]." Information from Ed Cooper

Francis Newcomb born c1605

Francis Newcomb is ancestor to many of the North American Newcomb(e)s. He is featured in the genealogy "Genealogical Memoir of the Newcomb family" published in 1874 by John Bearse Newcomb of Elgin Illinois. The book tells us Francis came to New England April, 1635 at age 30 with wife Rachel 20, daughter Rachel 2 1/2, and son John 9 months, on the ship Planter. They lived in Boston for 3 years and then settled at Mt. Wollaston (later called Braintree) Massachusetts. Children of Francis & Rachel Nucome born in New England: Mary (b1640), Sarah (b1643), Judith (b1645), Peter (b1648), Abigail (b1651), Leah (b1654), Elizabeth (1658) and Hannah b1637. Newcomb Record extracts from Braintree Massachusetts

Brackett familyThis site contains information about the Francis Newcomb line.

The first record I have for Henry Newcombe is from a transcript of a land deed published in the William and Mary Historical magazine Vol 3, Series 2 ,1923. He is listed with nineteen others as having been transported into the colony at Fort Henry, Virginia. Present day site of, Petersburg Virginia. The record is dated June 9th, 1653. He was involved in court cases in 1677,78. Land records in 1721 mention land formerly belonging to "Henry Newcomb in will dated March 21,1682" and a record mentions Elizabeth Newcombe ( possibly his widow). A possible brother Arthur Newcombe settled in Lancaster County, Virginia at the same time while the latter Henry in Charles City County.

Does anyone trace their line from Henry or Arthur have further information?

Elias Newcomen or Newcome

About 1650 one Elias Newcomen or Newcome was Constable of the Isle of Shoals, (where the Andrew Newcomb(2) also resided for a time); but the connection, if any, between these lines is not known, Elias records being only fragmentary.

Does anyone trace their line from Elias or have further information?

Captain Andrew Newcombe is believed to be the ancestor of many of the North American Newcomb(e)s. He is featured in the genealogies "Genealogical Memoir of the Newcomb family" published in 1874 by John Bearse Newcomb of Elgin Illinois and also in the genealogy "Andrew Newcomb and his Descendants" by Bethuel Merritt Newcomb published in 1923 which was based on some of the 1874 book. These are both quality works but neither states references, probably due to space limitations. This posses a problem in that much of the lineage we all claim as fact is based on these sources. Together we may be able to share what our own research turns up towards documenting our lines.

Possible origins of Captain Andrew Newcombe and Lt. Andrew Nucomb

Has anyone located the source material for the above mentioned Genealogies? If these still exist they might contain much family information not in the books.
