My 5th grt. grandparents were James MOODY and Elizabeth DONALD (Donnell/Dunnell various spellings found).
Their daughter and eldest known child was Sarah MOODY who married Simon NEWCOMB. They moved from Buxton, York Co., ME to Harrison, Cumberland Co., Maine where they raised their family and where Sarah died (March 1836 at age 63) and is probably buried.
They had John NEWCOMB f. 1796 m. Lydia SMITH
Simon Newcomb, Jr. b. 1803 m. 1st to Eunice WHITNEY and 2nd to Mary RICHARDS
and son Joseph NEWCOMB b.1810 who married Mary GODDARD.
John and Lydia Smith NEWCOMB had John Colby NEWCOMB b.1830, Lydia b. 1825, Elizabeth aka "Betsey" b. 1824 who married Daniel MILLIKEN, and Sarah Ann Lewis NEWCOMB b. 1828 who m. Edward TUTTLE.
Simon Newcomb, Jr. b. 1803 and Eunice Whitney had loads of kids - 12 if this is correct. Then Eunice died in 1856 and Simon married 2nd to Mary Richards and supposedly had 12 more kids. Eeee Gads!!

*******************************************
If you relate to any of these folks Please leave a message as I am trying to learn more about my 5th grt. grandparents James MOODY and Elizabeth Donald/Donnell/Dunnell of Buxton, York Co., Maine. James died before Sept. 4, 1785 and MAY have served 3 years plus time in the Rev. War.
Did Elizabeth his wife remarry? My 4th grt. grandfather and youngest brother of Sarah "Sally" Moody NEWCOMB's, was Joseph MOODY b.c1781 who married 1st to Content CROCKETT of Gorham, ME and 2nd to Hannah MITCHELL and they moved to Brunswick, Maine.
I am certain that some of Sarah Moody NEWCOMB's descendants are out there and would love to be in contact with them as we would be "cousins's" and perhaps you could share family stories with me that have been passed down through your family.
You can leave a message here and I'll contact you or you can leave a message for me (Newcomb-Moody) at the MOODY page here as well as I am more often found over there.
Thank you for any help.
