The marriage was witnessed by the following, among others: Precilah, Sarah, Elisha and William Hobs as well as Jemimah, Samuel and Rachel Newby.^[6]

1808 Marriage On 28 Aug 1808 bond was made for the marriage of Samuel Newby and Mary Beamon.^[7] Note: Bondsman was William Newby. Samuel (b. 1776) did have a younger brother William who would have been 19 years old at the time. However, Samuel (b. 1775) had a father named William as well. I believe this is the Samuel born in 1776 because of his age in the 1850 census.
