Message from "Kathy F." on FamilyHistory Message Board - SKIPPER:

"Re: Echo Community

This listing has: (Will use the spelling the book uses) T P Newsome b. 30 sept 1846 was son of Chas Newsome and Mary Newsome. He was married to Cathern Skipper b. 1841. T P and Cathern were married 12 Aug 1868. Her parents were Silas Skipper and Easter Skipper. Please verify these facts, since I don't know the author of this book or much about it. It also lists as children of T P & C Newsome: Wm b. 20 Jan 1872 married Donie Bracewell Nov 29 1891 (Donie is child of Zilpha Bracewell (doesn't list father); Angus b. 8 Jan 1887; Jim b. 1 Jan 1880 (married Minnie Ward 6 Nov 1901); Archie b. 3 Jan 1876; Mattie b. 10 May 1884. That is all it has on him. I hope this guy is the same as your Thomas Porter Newsome. Kathy"
