Biography

Stephen Oscar was born in Malden, Massachusetts, in 1839, the son of Lorenzo Newhall and Sarah Tufts.^[1]

He resided in Malden throughout his life. In 1855, the census calls him a farmer and shows him residing with parents and siblings.^[2] (There is also a 15 year old Stephen Newhall listed in the household of William Sinderly. Perhaps this is where he worked?)

He married Mary Keith in 1862.^{[3] [4]} They had one child, a daughter named Lizzie, before Mary died of consumption (tuberculosis) in 1864, at the age of 25. In 1865, he was at his parents' home in Malden with his 1 year old daughter.^[5] He remarried in 1868^[6] (intention filed December 27, 1867^[7]) to Lizzie Robson. He worked as a carpenter most of his life, though his first marriage record describes him as a "horse carriage driver".

Stephen died of cancer in 1918 and was buried at the Salem Street Cemetery in Malden.^[8]
