I have started adding material on the Newells of Brigus and Burnt Head (towns near ‘The Dock’). This is posted under “Other Nfld. Newells” which is under “The Dock Nfld” (see location in menu below). Both of these sections are still under construction so I will be adding more material in the future.
My grandmother Diana Newell was raised by her aunt and uncle Beniah and Polly (Mary) Newell. They lived in Georgetown, Long Pond and Brigus. I spent many months in Nfld as a child and should have paid more attention to family lore. After my Nan’s death, we found her half brothers and sisters in Maine so there are quite a few members on the Georgetown Newell’s you are missing. I’m sure after perusing your work that we are related. It would be nice to have contact with you. I did send an email but found this so decided to send both. Lol
