[from Andrew Newcomb 1618-1686 and His Descendants, BM Newcomb, 1923]
Mr. Newcomb lived for many years in Edgartown. He was a man of
prominence and held positions of trust in the community. He was
chosen selectman and sealer of weights and measures in 1712 and
sealer of weights in 1713. He served as town treasurer and moderator
of the town meeting. On 19 Feb. 1718, he was one of a committee to
consider the matter of building the meeting house. Three years later,
1721, he was representative from Edgartown to the General Court
(Legislature) of Mass. at Boston. Prior to 1722 he was called
"Capt.," afterwards "Gent." Doubtless he was a commander or captain
of ships; he may have been captain of a military organization.
Besides the lands which he received from his own and his wife's
parents he made several purchases between 1713-1722; between the
years 1717 and Sept. 1731 he made seven sales of lands. On 17 Feb.
1726-7, Mr. Newcomb sold for L70, to John Worth, two tracts of land
"which I bought of my brother simon Newcomb late of Edgartown." On 12
Sept. 1731, for L490, he sold to Jacob Norton 10 acres adjoining the
harbor at Edgartown; also, all right to land in front of house
joining to westward part facing the harbor; also, half a gallery pew.
In 1732 he removed, with his wife, three sons, and perhaps other
children, to Salem (now Cumberland) Co., N.J., and settled in the
town of Fairfield, where upon his death, his widow, Joyce, was
appointed administratrix of the estate of her "husband Joseph Newcomb
late of Salem County." Administration was also granted to his son,
Bayes [4], at Edgartown 20 Feb. 1739-40, to settle affairs at
Edgartown. The inventory of his estate is dated 4 Nov. 1732, and
"praised" at Morris River by Samuel Tomson and Gabrel Glenn. The
inventory included "bonds from New England against sundry persons
living there." The record speaks of him as "late of Cohansey, Gent."
Captain Newcomb and wife were interred in the old cemetery, near
where they first landed, at what was called New England Cross Roads.
The old cemetery is about one mile south of Fairton on the east bank
of Cohansey Creek. The other cemetery at the old stone church is
about one and one-half miles southeast from Fairton on the road to
Cedarville. A clergyman in New Jersey writes: "They have transmitted
to their descendants of the present time a character for morality and
religion unsurpassed by any other community." The following is a
facsimile of Capt. Newcomb's autograph written in 1703, signed to a
deposition in court in Boston.[autograph][BMN 29-30]Salem Co, NJ,
later became Cumberland Co, NJ [BMN 29]
