account for an extra NEWBERRY on the 1790 and 1800 census for

Northumberland Co; however, he was not on any PA census as the head

of a household nor was he listed on the RW pension files (he might have

died young or moved and thus would not be on a PA census and might

have been a child of a previous marriage or an illegitimate offspring)1295]

The spelling variations of the NEWBERRY name is as follows: de Neubourg, de Newburgh, Newburgh, Newburg, Newbury, New borough, Newberowe, Newberye, Newbery, Newbury and NEWBERRY. NEWBERRY became in use in America in the mid-1700s.

The family history of all the NEWBERRYs in America can be traced to Bernard the Dane who was part of a group of Vikings who invaded and conquered Normandy, France in about 900. Bernard the Dane was the son-in-law of Rollo (Hrolf the Ganger), the Viking chief who led the invasion and who was baptized and renamed Robert. Bernard the Dane settled in Normandy.

The son of Bernard the Dane was Torf de Torville (which is near Le Harve, on the Normandy coast across the Channel from England) who was born about 920 in Normandy and raised his family there among the hundreds of Scandinavian settlers who moved to Normandy in the ensuing century. His descendants included Tourde Sire Du Ponteaudemer (950) and Humphrey De Veulles, Sire Du Ponteaudemer (980). 1489

A descendent of Torf of Torville was Roger de Beaumont (1010-1094) who married Adeline de Meullant about 1040. When William I (the Conqueror) invaded England in 1066, Roger de Beaumont furnished 60 armed ships for the invasion force; but Roger stayed in Normandy where he was left in charge of the government of Normandy by William I (the Conqueror).

Roger de Beaumont and Adeline de Meullant had four children. The first was Roger de Beaumont (II) who went with William I (the Conqueror) when England was invaded in 1066. Roger (II) distinguished himself on the battlefield at Hastings when Harold, the King of England, was defeated; and Roger II was rewarded by the victorious William I (the Conqueror) with 91 manors near Warwickshire, England.

The second child of Roger de Beaumont and Adeline de Meullant was Henry who was born in 1045 at the castle of Neubourg in Normandy (about 75 miles west-northwest of Paris). Henry was identified by his birthplace (the Castle of Neubourg) as was common at that time.1490 He became known as Henry de Neubourg. Later this was anglicized to Newburgh. The evolution of NEWBERRY had begun.

When William I (the Conqueror) invaded England in 1966, Henry's older brother (Roger II) went to England also, but Henry de Neubourg stayed in Normandy and succeeded to his father's (Roger I) estate in the Pont Audemer area of Normandy (near Le Harve). Even though Henry had not participated in the Norman invasion of England, he was given grants of great estates in Warwickenshire, England (80 miles northwest of London) by William I (the Conqueror) who obviously appreciated the family's support in the war. Henry de Neubourg built Warwick Castle; and in 1090, William II, King of England and the son of William I, the Conqueror, named him the Earl of Warwick.

In 1090, Henry de Newburgh (notice the name evolution), the Earl of Warwick, married Margaret de Perche. Their oldest son, Roger de Newburgh (1090-1153), remained in England and succeeded his father as the second Earl of Warwick. Henry of Newbergh returned to his homeland of Normandy, France. Henry of Newbergh is buried beside his father (Roger de Beaumont) in the Abby de Preaux at Pont Audemer (20 miles west of Rouen and 20 miles northwest of Neubourg).

Roger de Newbergh continued the family line in England, from whence many oft he NEWBERRYs of modern America arises.

The first NEWBERRY immigrant to America was Thomas NEWBERRY (1594-1636). Thomas NEWBERRY (1594-1636) was a puritan who joined the exodus of Englishmen leaving their homeland in search of religious freedom in the New World. Thomas NEWBERRY (1594-1636) left Dorsetshire, England and arrived in Dorchester, Massachusetts in 1634, a scant dozen years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock in the same area. Thomas NEWBERRY enjoyed his religious freedom for only a short time since he died two years later, but his progeny account for most of the NEWBERRYs in New England, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan [the father of Thomas NEWBERRY (1594-1636), the immigrant, was Richard NEWBERRY; this line is called the Northern NEWBERRYs.]. 1491

The subsequent NEWBERRY immigrations had an economic impetus. Between 1700 and 1770, several waves of NEWBERRYs immigrated from England and Ireland into the southern tier of states--North and South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Bounties awarded after the Revolutionary War inspired the "southern NEWBERRYs" to migrate west to Tennessee; and the opening of the Indian land encouraged more migration west to Alabama and subsequently to Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Washington and California.

Frankly, the father, the forefathers and the ancestral tree of James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) is unknown and confusing. One author speculates that my NEWBERRY line began with ?? NEWBERRY who came to America in 1765 from Scotland to Connecticut.1492 A biography of Charles Todd NEWBERRY, a partner in the famous five and dime stores founded by his brother (John J. NEWBERRY=J. J. NEWBERRY) and a great grandson of James and Sara (PAUL) NEWBERRY (his grandfather was Josiah NEWBERRY and his father was Andrew NEWBERRY), lists his great-great-grandparents as James and (Linsley) NEWBERRY as immigrants from Scotland to Connecticut in 1765.1493 I do not know from whence is the data. A newspaper biography of J. J. (John Josiah) NEWBERRY (1877 Sunbury, PA- 1954) lists his two brothers as C. T. NEWBERRY and Edgar A. NEWBERRY.1494 The history of J. J. Newberry is interesting, especially since he became the most successful and well-known Newberry. John Josiah NEWBERRY was born on Sept. 26, 1877 in Sunbury, PA and died in 1954. He was educated in the public schools. In 1894, he went to work for a department store. In 1899, he joined S.H. KRESS and Co; and after 12 years with the company, he occupied a buyer's desk. He resigned due to illness; and on Dec. 16, 1911, he opened the first J.J.NEWBERRY store in Stroudsburg, Pa. J.J. Newberry served as buyer, manager, floorwalker, sales clerk, and stockman in his first store—a single-minded dedication to duty that produced profits to finance the opening of a second store after just a year and a half of operation. By 1918, he was operating seven stores. During the same period, his brother, C.T.NEWBERRY, was superintendent of buyers with F. W. WOOLWORTH CO. In 1919, the brothers joined forces in the NEWBERRY stores. A third brother, Edgar A. NEWBERRY joined the company as a stock clerk in Shamokin, PA in the same year following his discharge from the U. S. Army. By the end of 1919, there were 17 stores in the chain with annual sales of $500,000. The company was incorporated in 1923. On the death of C.T. NEWBERRY in 1939, J.J. NEWBERRY became chairman of the board and his younger brother Edgar NEWBERRY assumed the presidency, a post he retained until 1953 when he, in turn, advanced to the chairmanship. By 1961, the company was operating 565 stores with annual sales of $291,000,000. J. J. NEWBERRY was one of the early pioneers in establishing a sales promotion department and continued to be among the leaders in chain store sales promotion.1495

James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) was probably born in Chester Co, PA in 17501496or more likely Nov. 19, 17491497,1498 [There is a controversy about where he was born. On her application to the DAR, Mrs. Miriam Giles concluded that he was born in Northumberland Co; however, he was probably born in Chester Co1499 or Philadelphia Co since (1) in the 1750’s in what was to become Northumberland Co, the only “white men” there were fur traders who lived in temporary camps among the Indian “savages”—there were no permanent settlements;1500 (2) when James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) enlisted in the Pennsylvania Line in March 1, 1777 (see below), he was in the Philadelphia area; (3) when he tried to get a pension, he returned to the Philadelphia area where he enlisted; (4) there were NEWBERRY families in Philadelphia and Chester Co; (5) the 9th Pennsylvania Line Regiment in which he served drew many of its members from Philadelphia and nearby counties and was commanded by Jack Nelson, a Philadelphian, and (6) he married Sara Guest in Chester Co].1501,1502 Possibly James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) moved to East Nantmeal, Chester Co from Philadelphia after the Revolutionary War where he married Sara Guest in 1784 by Dan Griffiths, a justice of the peace.1503,1504

However, the lineage of James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) is unclear. First, the spelling of the name varies among families, locales and time, but even the spelling differs among siblings. Common spellings of the same name in Pennsylvania include NEWBERRY, NEWBERY, NEWOROUGH, NEWBROUGH, and NEWBURY. Possibly James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) was the son of (1) John NEWBERRY who resided in Newlin Twp, Chester Coin 1785 (on the tax rolls) or (2) John NEWBERRY who was listed in Pennsbury Twp, Chester Co in the 1790 census (this family might have been descended from John NEWBERRY who settled in Montgomery Co, PA in 1706);1505 but any connection has not been established. (3) One immigration record lists a John NEWBERRY (no age mentioned) who arrived in Germantown, PA in 1706, and that might be the John NEWBERRY mentioned in Montgomery Co PA1506 (Montgomery Co was part of Philadelphia Co until 1784).1507 (4) One source states that James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) was the son of James Newbury and Sara (Linley) Newbury. James Newbury reportedly emigrated from Scotland to Connecticut in 1765.1508 It is also possible that might be part of the Irish NEWBERRYs who originated in Scotland, migrated to Cavan Co, Ireland and several generations later to Chester Co, PA in the 1700s.1509

The ancestors of John NEWBERRY (1677-1759) (described above and below) were large landowners of Devonshire, England near Plymouth on the south coast of England on the English Channel.1510 Thomas NEWBERRY (??-1635), his wife and seven children immigrated on the ship “Mary & John’ in 1630 (leaving several NEWBERRY brothers behind) and settled in Dorchester, MA by 1634 (becoming one of its largest land owners), Plymouth Rock and Windsor, CN. Confusing? Yep. An American tree follows: 1511

However, there were at least two John NEWBERRYs in Chester Co. The data is not clear and may rule out one John NEWBERRY of Pennsbury, PA (Pennsbury Twp was formed from part of Kennett Twp in 1770; it is the easternmost township in Chester Co, PA and borders Delaware). The spelling of this John was “NEWBRAUGH.”
John NEWBRAUGH, Sr. (??-ca 1735) [he was on the tax rolls of Cain Twp (1720, 21),

Middleton Twp (1722), Bradford Twp (1730) and E. Bradford Twp

(1732), all in Chester Co; he died in 1735 and was married to Dinah

Butterfield (??-ca 1779)]

John NEWBRAUGH, Jr. (ca 1730 Chester Co, PA- ca 1797 Winchester, VA) [he

married Eleanor McClure in Wilmington, DE in 1753 but resided in

Pennsbury Twp, PA until he moved to VA in 1791; he was a

blacksmith and there are several court cases in Chester Co about his

running away from his apprenticeship as a blacksmith; he lived in and

was taxed in Kennett Twp (1756-1769) which later Pennsbury (1770-

1772), moved to London Grove Twp (1773-1781) and finally

to VA (1791)]

John NEWBRAUGH, III (1760- ??) [he married Elizabeth Grist/Greist,

was a RW soldier in Chester Co and resided in Berkley Co; he was a

farmer and had 12 kids]

Joshua NEWBRAUGH

Joseph NEWBRAUGH (??-1752 Chester Co, PA) [he left his wife and 2 kids in

England, so he may have been a different Joseph]

Sarah NEWBRAUGH

Ann NEWBRAUGH


James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) joined the Pennsylvania forces in the Revolutionary War. He enlisted on May 20, 1776 in the 5th South Carolina Regiment and served as a private in Company D (led by Capt. John Nelson and Capt. George Grant), 9th Pennsylvania Regiment commanded by Col. George Nagel and successively by Col. Richard Butler from his enlistment on March 1, 1777 in Philadelphia until his honorable discharge on Jan. 24, 1781 in Trenton, New Jersey. He participated in the battles of Short Hills, Brandywine, Germantown, Monmouth and Stoney Point.1554,1555 After the war, James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) probably went with a Company D buddy (a drummer, Albin GUEST) to East Nantmeal Twp, Chester Co where he met his buddy's sister, Sara GUEST (1764-1850). James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) and Sara (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1864-1850) were married by Dan Griffth, a Justice of the Peace, in 1784 in Chester Co1556 Albin GUEST subsequently moved northwest to settle in Stone Valley, Northumberland County where he purchased land on a confiscated estate in July 1781. James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) stayed in Chester County1557 and married Sarah GUEST (1764-1850) in East Nantmeal Twp, Chester Co in 1784. He was listed on the tax rolls in Coventry Twp, Chester Co in 1785.

Probably about 1787, James and Sara NEWBERRY moved to Turbut Township, Northumberland Co1558 James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) is listed on the 1790 census in Northumberland Co. I do not know where he lived in relationship to Albin GUEST, but they lived about 3 miles above Northumberland on the Danville Road near Chulasky.1559 About ten years later, the PAUL family moved just north of the NEWBERRY place and across the road. Subsequently, three of the NEWBERRY children married three PAULs. Earlier, two PAUL sisters (Margaret and Catherine PAUL) had married two HUBLER brothers (Abraham and Henry HUBLER) in Northampton County in about 1797.

Albin NEWBERRY (1787-1854) was a farmer and landowner in Northumberland and with his wife, Nancy Ann (later known as Anne) PAUL had many children as listed above. 1560

The exact lineage of William NEWBERRY (<1817-1845) is unclear. He was almost surely the son of Albin NEWBERRY (1787-1854) and Nancy Ann PAUL or James NEWBERRY, Jr. (1794-1829) and Sara PAUL1561 The consensus1562 favors the latter, so I outlined his lineage as above.

The 1790, 1800 and 1810 census for Northumberland Co shows James NEWBERRY (1750-1830). On April 21, 1818, he applied for a pension as a Revolutionary War soldier at age 68 and as a resident of Northumberland Co. He went before the Judge of Courts of Common Pleas, 9th of the Eight Judicial District of Pennsylvania (in accordance with the “late Act of Congress” to provide veterans for the Revolutionary War—it was passed in March 1818) and requested a pension, as declared by law. He stated that he enlisted in October 1776 in PA in the Company commanded by George Grant of the 9th Regiment and was discharged on Jan. 24, 1781 at Trent, New Jersey. He stated that he participated in the battles of the Short Hills, Brandywine, Germantown, Monmouth and Stoney Point. James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) signed his petition with an “X.”1563 The amount that he received was not listed, but in later documents (see below), it was revealed that James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) obtained an annual stipend of $110.

James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) applied for a pension related to his service in the Revolutionary War. He was allowed an annual pension of $96.00 beginning on April 21, 1818.1564 On Aug. 1, 1820, James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) appeared in court in Chester Co to plead for an additional pension,1565 and he stated that he was a resident of East Nantmeal Twp, Chester Co, had no family with him and was in need of funds. He said that he was a resident of East Nantmeal Twp and served in the Revolutionary War in the Company commanded by Capt. Joseph McClellan in the Regiment commanded by Richard Butler. He admitted that he had obtained a pension (certificate # 3719) that amounted to $110/year. James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) said that he owed $50, had no family and could not earn his sustenance because of age (70 years) and infirmary (blind in one eye and almost the same in the other eye). James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) was given $83.73. Meanwhile, his wife, Sarah (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1764-1850), was listed as the head of a household (as well as, her grown sons Albin, James, Jr. and Richard NEWBERRY) in Northumberland Co in the 1820 census. James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) took his funds and returned to Northumberland Co in Oct.1820 where he died on Feb. 22, 1830. Sara (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1867-1850) said later that he stayed in Chester Co for 9 months in 1820. It appears that they colluded to defraud the government.1566,1567,1568, 1569 Until 1900, the government kept copies of all correspondence TO, but not FROM, them;1570 so much of the official thinking had to be conjectural, and maybe the seeming collusion was just a misinterpretation of the fragmentary data.1571

In 1838, Congress passed another pension law to provide pensions to widows of Revolutionary War veterans. On September 5, 1839, Sara (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1764-1850) applied for a federal pension as a resident of Northumberland, Northumberland Co.1572 She stated that she was 75. She signed with an “X.” A Mary NEWBERRY (probably her daughter, but using her maiden name) attested to the veracity. A final disposition was not given about the pension request was not given; however, it is obvious that her honesty was in doubt [recall that her husband, James NEWBERRY (1750-1830), had previously testified on his second pension request that he lived alone]. Thus, on Feb. 1, 1840, Sara (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1764-1850) testified before a JP in Northumberland that her husband had not kept official certification papers (such as, a Marriage Certificate or Birth Records), and thus in 1820, he traveled to Harrisburg to seek his service record and honestly testified that he lived alone. She explained that he was gone for nine months and then returned home to Northumberland (with no ill will) where he resided until his death. She added that James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) drank liquor, and that neither of them could write. Additional persons signed affidavits supporting the marriage of James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) and Sara (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1754-1850) (the pastor who performed the marriage in Chester Co, had died thirty years earlier). Also, on Feb. 3, 1840, the Court requested further documentation, and her son, Albin NEWBERRY, certified the truth of her statements (but he said that he could not read, but none-the-less, he had seen paper which certified the marriage of hi parents). The truth that Albin NEWBERRY was who he said was declared by signature by Henry S. (Paul) (possibly his nephew). Even the pastor who had followed Dan Griffith, the JP in Chester Co who had married the NEWBERRYs, certified that Griffith was indeed a JP in Chester Co, as she had claimed. By May 1840, Sara (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1764-1850) still had no pension. Finally, a military officer apparently obtained the elusive pension, and she began to get her pension.1573

However, in 1843, Congress passed a law to reauthorize its 1838 pension law, and so recipients had to re-apply (there were fewer left who would qualify because of advancing age). In June 1884, Sara (GUEST) NEWBERRY (1764-1850) (then 80 years old) declared the same facts as before, and the document was witnessed by John PAUL. Apparently, she continued to receive the pension until her death in 1849/50.1574

James and Sara NEWBERRY lived on a farm in Point Twp, Northumberland Co (later Centre Co), PA just north of the North Branch of the Susquehanna River, near Northumberland Twp. The NEWBERRY farm was separated from the PAUL farm by a canal. A road was first, and then the canal was built. Betty Brungard, who lived in Point Twp in the 1950s, recalls that the canals were no longer in use then, and a dirt-crossing passageway across had been built. When the highway (Route 11) from Northumberland to Danville, PA was widened, the NEWBERRY farmhouses were removed (one was torn down; the other was moved to Point, where it stands today). There was a Presbyterian Church beside the NEWBERRY farmhouse in 1858, but only a foundation and spring are left there. I do not know how the PAULs and NEWBERRYs crossed the canal, which separated the farms.1575,1576

James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) and Sara GUEST (1764-1850) both died at home in Point Twp, Northumberland Co. No one knows where James and Sarah NEWBERRY are buried. The only cemetery in Point Twp was on the Wm. Wilson farm (Presbyterian Cemetery), but no one knows where the Wilson farm was. The NEWBERRYs must have been buried in unmarked graves on their own land, or in Riverview Cemetery, Northumberland Co, PA1577 or on the Wilson farm.1578

Sara GUEST (1764-1850) left a sizable estate divided among 9 heirs—her children, including her daughter, Sarah NEWBERRY HUBLER.1579 Each of her seven living children (in 1850 when she died, her sons Richard and James NEWBERRY had preceded her in death) received $124.77, but the children of her two dead sons (Richard and James NEWBERRY) divided an equal amount of $124.77.1580,1581

James Newberry (1750-1830) could not write and signed his name with an "X.”1582

The Chester courthouse has several records on NEWBERRYs during the appropriate time, including John and Henry NEWBERRYs.

The parents of James NEWBERRY (1750-1830) have not been discovered. One source states that they were James Newbury and Sara Linsley from Connecticut. His grandfather emigrated from Scotland and settled in Connecticut.1583

There are various NEWBERRYs from various parts of the USA (like, NJ and MO), is a NEWBERRY Research Society, are several web pages and is a group on the Internet—all sorting out NEWBERRYs. Some of those (e.g. Larry Hitch and Gerry Hamor) are referenced above while others with pending connections are on the Internet (rootsweb). The PA census for NEWBERRY follows:

Controversy or at least questions are possed on several issues, as follows.

  • The birthdate of James NEWBERRY is published as 1750 by one author and 1749 by several others. The later date (1749) is probably accurate.

  • The existance of Washington as a son of James NEWBERRY and Sara GUEST is debated, and it may be that George NEWBERRY had a middle name of Washington which might be the source of the confusion. Washinton was not listed in the estate of Sara GUEST NEWBERRY in 1858 (but he might have died young and childless), but he is mentioned by his aunt (Ann Waters) in 1841. 1584, 1585
