• Notes

  Simon, son of Lieutenant Andrew (2) and Sarah Newcomb, was born about 1666, probably at Kittery, York county, Maine, but possibly on the Isles of Shoals, which lie a few miles out in the Atlantic Ocean from Portsmouth and Kittery. He died at Lebanon, Connecticut, January 20, 1744-45. He was eight years old when the family removed to Martha's Vineyard, and he lived there until 1713. He acquired a great amount of land in Martha's Vineyard, selling most of it, probably when he removed in 1713 to Lebanon, New London county, Connecticut. He was a wealthy and prominent man in Lebanon, where he held many of the town offices. He gave farms to each of his sons except Simon (2), who received a gift of his homestead. His wife, Deborah, whom he married about 1687 and with whom he lived fifty-eight years, died in Lebanon, June 17, 1756, in her ninety-second year. They are both buried in the old cemetery at Lebanon, Connecticut, where their tombstones may still be found, although the inscriptions are difficult to decipher. Children: John, Thomas, see forward, Hezekiah, Obadiah, Deborah, Sarah, Benjamin, Elizabeth and Simon.
