Message: | TO THE NEWBURY FAMILY Just found something that I don’t know if it’s important or not. It was to Mamie because she had me copy and save it, so she could get it later. It’s called Eye Of The Hurricane 1. I’ve had it for several years and don’t know if it’s important to anyone or not. Here is a paragraph from it: THOMAS NEWBERRY, born in 1594, died in 1635, a puritan colonist of New England, was descended from the ancient knightly family of Newburgh of Dorsetshire, England, originally of Normandy. The family name was derived in the time of William the Conqueror from the castle of Newbourg in Normandy; and in England for over five centuries the name was generally spelled "Newburgh" by successive heads of the house. It is evident, however, that fom as early as 1400 the name was pronounced "Newborough" ("New- borowe")... It’s 22 printed computer pages long and has 8 chapters. .Let me know, LL |
