The stone above is for one of the descendants of that Andrew Newcomb, my other g-g-g grandparents -- Frances and Sarah (Frank & Sally) (Gordon) Newcomb and their children. There is a road on Cape Cod where my grandpa lives that was named after one of my Newcomb ancestors, "AP Newcomb."

"There is a funny story about my Uncle John Newcomb. In between wars, he lived with his parents, Frank and Sally Newcomb and in the 1880's started dating a girl named Margaret Stewart. He kept telling Maggie that he'd marry her as soon as he had a house. Little did Maggie know that what he really meant was a soon as he had his *father's* house. His father didn't pass away until 1923 at the age of 95 when John and Maggie were both 62 years old! They finally married on 26 January 1924."
