Edward Charles Newport - b. Cordell TN - 7/9/1909

weehawkin — 23 Apr 2008 6:11:36 GMT

Seeking birth certificate photocopy for Edward C. Newport, born in Scott County Tennesee on July 9, 1909. His marriage certificate in 1933 states he was born in Cordell TN, but that is not 100% sure. If anyone is going to the archives there and can get a copy, I would pay reasonable/customary fees. Parents are Alice and Carley Newport. Thanks!

Anyone with a World Deluxe Membership?

If you do I could really use your help right now. I need information on the Edith Lucy Newport.

According to Ontario, Canada Marriages, 1857-1924 she married a Cecil James Blatch.

Her Father is John Newport.

I would like to verify if she is the same Edith Newport from my tree.

My Edith Newport b. about 1915, Father is John Critton Newport and Mother is Dora Bell Ragle.

If anyone could help me with this I would appreciate it. I can't seem to find what has happened to this person.

Thank You!

Newport Photos: Have some...cannot identify all...maybe others can help?

greekspeak — 3 Jul 2007 2:30:48 GMT

Greetings

I have a nice box of photos, a number of which are Newports. Problem is I cannot identify who they are. I am supposed to be related to them but luckily no ancestor thought to put names on many of these photos. My line is from Henry Newport (1790 PA)--Israel Newport (1816 OH)--Samuel Newport (OH 1850)--Lewis Clyde Newport (IL 1882)--Lawrence Ray Newport (MO 1909)--Beverly Ann Newport (MO 1935). The photos seem mostly to be of relatives who moved to Kansas ca 1890-1900. These are going to be the above mentioned Lewis Clyde Newport's siblings and their families. His siblings are as follows: Rollen Otto, Mary Emma, John William, May Belle, Samuel Burton, (LC himself), Richard Otto, Grover Cleveland, Israel Plummer and Gertrude Elizabeth. Mary married Benjamin Bruce. May married Basil Shull. Gertrude married C. Wesley Emery. I have these out of order in age, sorry, but this is all the siblings. Rollen, May, Mary, and John raised families in Finney, Lyon, Kearny and a few other counties in Kansas. Samuel had family in SD. His photos are mostly identified. I have a number of photos of John William's children and one of his two wives (with an accordian in the photo). Most of the rest are going to be Mary's and May's families. I would love to know who some of the mystery Newports are. I am willing to scan and share photos and would really appreciate it if anyone related to these Newports that know what they looked like could ID them.

Thanks

Critics: Va. Statue Has 1 Arm Too Many

September 8, 2007 - 2:29pm

By SONJA BARISIC
Associated Press Writer

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (AP) - The swashbuckling sea captain who helped found America's first permanent English settlement lost his right arm in battle nearly two decades earlier _ but you wouldn't know it to look at the two-armed statue on the campus of the university named for him.

Some annoyed and angry alumni and history buffs want the monument to get the hook _ the prosthetic that Christopher Newport is believed to have used 400 years ago.

The pair of arms on 24-foot bronze statue shows a lack of respect for history, said Andy Kiser of Winchester, a 1995 graduate of Christopher Newport University who studied colonial Virginia.

That's especially galling, Kiser said, in a part of Virginia filled with historic attractions, such as Colonial Williamsburg, and at a time when Jamestown is commemorating its 400th anniversary.

"In the middle of a community that tries so hard to get it right, here's a 4-ton 'Oops, we got it wrong,'" he said.

CNU, a public university with about 4,800 students, is a few blocks from where the James River flows into the Chesapeake Bay. Up river is Jamestown, the swampy peninsula where the settlers landed in May 1607.

Newport was captain of the Susan Constant, largest of the settlers' three ships. He lost his arm in about 1590, when he was working in the West Indies as a privateer hired by London merchants to raid Spanish and Portuguese ships, said Mike Lund, ships interpretive supervisor at Jamestown Settlement, a state-run living history museum.

It's unclear how he was hurt, or how much of the arm he lost, Lund said. Historical accounts say Newport's arm was "stricken off" during a fight.

The two-armed, 7,500-pound statue, donated to CNU by a benefactor, was installed in June.

Newport is shown in floppy hat and cape, standing with his left hand on his hip and his right arm stretched in front of him, hand resting on the hilt of his sword.

The inclusion of the right arm _ as well as sculptor Jon Hair's comment to the local newspaper that "We don't show our heroes maimed" _ touched off a spate of letters to the editor.

Ted Crossland of Yorktown wrote a letter to the Daily Press calling the statue a "monstrosity that recreates history and presents another lie to the public about our past."

"He accomplished more in his short life span with one arm than normal people do with two arms, and the university is not recognizing that fact," wrote Crossland, a retired naval officer with an interest in history.

Hair, who has a studio in Cornelius, N.C., did not return repeated messages from The Associated Press seeking comment.

He told the Daily Press that the university decided to portray the captain with two arms and he agreed.

"I wouldn't show an important historical figure like this with his arm cut off," Hair said.

CNU President Paul Trible did not recall having any conversation with the artist about how many arms the statue should have, university spokeswoman Emily Lucier said in an e-mail response to questions.

Trible approved a model of the statue "and he is very pleased with the statue," Lucier wrote. She said the university would have no other comment.

Jack Marshall was intrigued by the statue flap and wrote about it on EthicsScoreboard.com, a project of ProEthics Ltd., the ethics training and consulting firm he founded in Alexandria.

"It's like doing a statue of Babe Ruth and showing him thin," Marshall said, referring to the rotund slugger, "or doing a statue of Willie Shoemaker, a jockey, and showing him 6 feet tall."

The debate raised some familiar issues for Michael Deland, president of the National Organization on Disability. He spearheaded a six-year effort that led to the addition, in 2001, of a statue of showing President Franklin D. Roosevelt in a wheelchair to the FDR Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Advocates for the disabled had objected when the memorial opened with its centerpiece FDR statue only hinting at Roosevelt's polio. It showed a cape-covered Roosevelt in a straight chair with two small wheels on the back.

"It would be a far greater inspiration for the students at that university, for everybody who sees that statue, to see that captain shown as he was," he said recently by phone from Washington.

Looking for Family History Info.

Jill (Newport) Helmle — 8 Nov 1999 9:42:21 GMT

I would like any information on the Newport family. My grandfather, Walter Clayton Newport, born June 7, 1921, was the son of Grover Cleveland Newport and May Newport of Eufalla, Oklahoma. Walter Newport left Oklahoma in 1957 and spent the rest of his life in Bakersfield, California.

Marriage Lookup for Carley Dester Newport -Scott Cty TN

weehawkin — 20 Jun 2007 6:27:47 GMT

(Sorry this is a little long!) By reviewing census records and family notes, Carley Dester Newport (my great-grandfather b. 12/1/1879, d. 7/1/1924 in Scott County, TN,) seems to have two wives, perhaps both at the same time. I am looking for any documents to corroborate or refute this.

My great-grandmother, Ruth Harris Newport, emigrated from Nova Scotia Canada in 1900, and after living in Boston, MA area somehow got to Tennessee where she met Carley Dester Newport and they married (although I cannot find any certificates to corroborate this). Since my grandmother, Alice Pauline Frye nee Newport, was born in 1908 and her brother Edward Newport was born 1909, in Tennessee, I would estimate a likely marriage date between 1900-1908. By 1910 census, Ruth Newport had left TN and returned to Boston with 2 children, without husband and by 1920 relocated to Vermont, where she remarried and later died in 1922.

Now here is the interesting part. Carley Dester Newport is also listed on census records and draft registration forms (1900, 1910, 1920 with appropriate dates/places of birth/residences so I know it is the same person.... where he is either living in TN with his mother (Alice Lewellen) and stepfather (Jasper Jeffers), or with his wife? a "Lena" Newport, also from Nova Scotia!! and their children. Carley and Lena's first daughter, Ella, was born in MASS 1905 (before my grandmother's birth in TN) while daughter Laura was born in 1914 (In OHIO). Coincidently, my grandmother was sent to live with "relatives" in Cincinnati, OH after the death of her mother in 1922.

To corroborate that this was one and the same person, I know my grandparents had taken several trips back to TN in their early marriage years, and visited Jasper Jeffers and Alice Lewellen before their deaths (Carley Dester predeceased both his step-father and mother). My father in fact easily recalls the name Jasper Jeffers and my grandmother also mentioned a half-sibling Ella, who is definately the child of Carley and "Lena" Newport. Both Ella and Laura Newport, (the children), have appeared on Census records with their Mother, Lena, who ALSO moved back to Boston, Mass in 1910 for a brief time, then returning to Tennessee and living with Carley in 1920 - and Ella resided with her grandmother, Alice Lewellen (Carley's mother), for some years.

So this is a long way round to ask for a marriage lookup for either Carley Dester Newport and Ruth Harris, or Carley Dester Newport and Lena Bowers (her maiden name). I would estimate, since Ella was born in 1905, that the marriage would be from 1900 - 1905.

Any details on Columbus Newport (g-g-grandfather), Carley Newport (g-grandfather), Alice Lewellen (g-g-grandmother), Laura Newport, Ella Newport, etc. also appreciated

He graduated from the literary department of the Willamette University in 1890, and the law department in 1892. The same years he was admitted to the bar and began practice in Albany. He was Justice of the Peace in 1891-92, and was elected City Attorney in 1894. He was one of the prime movers in organizing the Albany Republican Club, and was a delegate to the league in 1896. In 1894 he was a member of the county convention, and stumped the county for the successful ticket.

Mormon Church Records

mark Bragg — 20 Jul 2001 4:36:53 GMT

Actually, the Mormon records on Molly Newport being the daughter of Capt. Christopher Newport ARE WRONG. I'm not condemning the foundation of which the LDS is founded, I am merely pointing out to researchers that even on the LDS sites is a disclaimer, stating that records, such as this one, are SUBMISSIONS, of church patrons, not attached necessarily to any facts or vital records. If there is a seamy side to this claim, it is that Capt. Newport is a Saint of the LDS church, and Having ones past hitched to a saint couldnt hurt. I ask you, like I have asked THOUSANDS, if you want to past this link on the other researchers, FIND YOUR PROOF FIRST..It is a shame to misdirect people honestly looking for the truth

NEWPORTs from Somerset, England

bwn_1 — 26 Jun 2003 2:47:58 GMT

I can trace my NEWPORT family back to a Joseph NEWPORT who married an Ann WALL in Bath Abbey in 1794. They lived in Hinton, Somerset and moved to London in the period 1801 t0 1808. Most of the family returned to Bristol and Bath in the 1830s - 1850s. One daughter, Eliza NEWPORT married John CHILD and migrated to USA in the 1830s and lived and had children in Philadephia PA,St Louis Missouri and Belleville Illinois, some of whom became Mormons.
In the 1880's some of the family emigrated to Australia, which is where I come in.
If anyone has information on any of these branches, especially on NEWPORTs in Somerset in the 1700s and 1800s I would be delighted to hear from them. I have extensive information on NEWPORTs in England including some indexes.
