Newton Family History.....
Descendants of James Preston Newton (compiled by ANNe TIndall)
Generation No. 1
1. JAMES PRESTON6 NEWTON (JAMES R.5, GILES4, YOUNGER3,
YOUNGER2, GILES1) was born 06 June 1884 in Newtonville, Marlboro, SC, and died
15 February 1970 in Dundee Nursing Home, Bennettsville, Marlboro County, SC.
He married BLANCHE BRIGHT ADAMS 15 September 1907 in Baptist Parsonage, McColl,
Marlboro County, SC,, daughter of SHOCKLEY ADAMS and ANNIE GIBSON. She was born
09 May 1889 in Adamsville, Marlboro, SC, and died 12 April 1964 in Marlboro
Hospital, Bennettsville, Marlboro County, SC.
Notes for JAMES PRESTON NEWTON:
Personal History: Written in the hand of Blanche Adams (Newton) on a typed copy
of an article noted as appearing in the "Marlboro Advocate" are the
words "Married September 15, 1907. The article is as follows: "The
old saying that "true love is not afraid of locksmiths, bars and distance",
is certainly true. Shockley P. Adams and his good wife of the Boykin section
had made all the necessary preparation for sending their lovely daughter Miss
Blanche, to Littleton Female College, and she was to have left last Tuesday
morning. Her trunk had been packed, dresses all made, some of the friends told
good bye, but she and her lover, James Newton, were planning different. They
had no idea of being separated for nine months, so on Sunday afternoon, under
the pretense of taking a farewell buggy drive, when the sweet tales of love
could be rehearsed, and each could tell the other of their undying affection,
and the more firmly pledge their vows of attachment. But they rapidly drove
to McColl, visited the Baptist parsonage, and in the presence of a few, hastily
collected friends they were made husband and wife, and spent the night at Thos.
Newton's, the groom's brother-in-law. The Advocate wishes them a long, prosperous
and happy life."
Personal by granddaughter (Anita) Anne Gibson Tindall: "Granddaddy"
was a BIG MAN. He was about six feet five inches tall and when he stood beside
"Grandma", who was around five feet tall, they looked like "Mutt
and Jeff". I remember sitting on the front porch in the swing with Granddaddy,
not talking much, just swinging in the breeze. I also remember that he had horses
and cows and kept them in with an electrical fence. He seemed to love holding
onto the fence and then asking one of the grandchildren to "come here and
hold my hand" when we would get a jolt of electricity running from the
fence through his body. I didn't like that very much. I do remember how much
I liked to go and spend a week or so with Granddaddy and Grandma. The house
was large, they had reared nine children, and cool even on the hottest days.
There always seemed to be a breeze drifting from across the field into the house.
They had a well and Granddaddy would "draw a bucket of water" as needed
and we would get a drink from the bucket with the dipper. They had an electrical
stove, that I think some of their children encouraged them to get, but I think
Grandma used the old wood stove for cooking and the new-fangled stove to store
food, like left over biscuits.
Notes for BLANCHE BRIGHT ADAMS:
Blanche's eldest granddaughter, Anne Gibson (Tindall) who is compiling this
family history, feels the necessity of entering a few words concerning her feelings
about "Grandma". First she and "Granddaddy" looked like
"Mutt and Jeff" when standing side by side. Grandma was around five
feet tall and granddaddy was around six feet five inches. Grandma had the sweetest
smile and you just knew that no matter what you did she would love you. She
was never critical. I loved spending a week or so with them in the summer time.
She had an old victrola that fascinated me and thanks to their son, James, I
now have that victrola. I remember visiting Grandma and Granddaddy every Sunday
afternoon and sneaking into the kitchen to find the left-over biscuits from
dinner. One time I decided to get some milk from the refrigerator and saw a
glass full. I almost got sick from the first and only swallow as it was Granddaddy's
BUTTERMILK GLASS!!! They had no indoor bathroom so at night you used "slop
jars" (actually they were more like buckets) and in the day-time you had
to make your way to the back of their lot to the "out-house". This
really was located in a neat area because it was near a fig tree where June
Bugs lived. We would catch them and tie strings around their legs and let them
fly as we watched. Also there were quite a few lightening bugs around this fig
tree and they were fascinating as you made your late evening trip to the out-house.
But the outhouse was scary. I was always afraid I would fall into the hole and
even more afraid there might be a snake or spider that would crawl up to my
bare behind. In those days visiting grandparents meant you would get to see
your cousins and what fun we would have. All ages, sizes would gather and because
Grandma and Granddaddy had nine living children, the group was large, especially
when cousins from Virginia would visit. Among my many memories is the time several
of us grandchildren discovered Grandma's secret. Always, after meals, Grandma
would go into the little "pantry" off the kitchen and stay quite a
while. I thought she was utilizing the "slop jar" particularly since
you could smell smoke like a piece of paper had been burned (as was the custom
when the slop jar was used for the more odorous personal elimination). However,
one summer day when the cousins from Virginia were visiting and the eldest grandson,
Johnny Paul, had his driver's license; Grandma sent us (I believe it was Mary
Bright, Gigi, Danny Bruce and I with Johnny Paul) to Gibson (NC) to pick up
something she had ordered from Pate's store. Naturally we curious teenagers
HAD TO LOOK into this neat little package that seemed so important. When we
looked we found PIPE TOBACCO....Grandma smoked a corn-cob pipe! Well, we thought
this was just great that our Grandma smoked. It was, however, probably the very
thing that brought on the cancer of the gum which spread to other body parts
and ended her sweet life. I still miss her as she was the type of person you
wanted to be like when you grew up.

6. BLANCHE LUCILLE7 NEWTON (JAMES PRESTON6, JAMES
R.5, GILES4, YOUNGER3, YOUNGER2, GILES1) was born 09 July 1918 in Newtonville,
Marlboro County, SC, and died 05 February 1996 in Carolinas Medical Hospital,
Charlotte, Mecklenburg Co., NC, She married WILLIE HARRIS GIBSON, JR. 14 November
1937 in Dillon, Dillon County, SC, son of WILLIE GIBSON and JOSEPHINE LILES.
He was born 25 June 1916 in Gibson, Scotland County, NC, and died 08 November
1991 at home in Charlotte, Mecklenburg Co., NC.
Notes for BLANCHE LUCILLE NEWTON:
Lucille was a kind, intelligent woman who had experienced much sickness from
her early years. She had osteomylitis, a disease of the bone marrow, when she
was only four years old. She and her parents traveled many times from their
home in Marlboro County SC to Charlotte NC where Lucille had many surgeries.
Charlotte was about 100 miles from where they lived so I'm sure that in the
early 1920's it must have taken the better part of a day to travel. Lucille
said that her Aunt Ruth (her mother's sister) and husband, Uncle Manly, lived
in Charlotte and they stayed with them. During this period in medical practice
there were no antibiotics. I guess this to be true because Lucille said they
used maggots to eat out the infection in her bones. She had scars on both legs
and arms. These scars were actually the bone with a thin covering of skin. Even
until her death at the age of 78 these areas were very sensitive to the touch.
Lucille was very sensitive person who loved all and basked in any little or
big thing that showed she was loved by others. Her love for husband Willie was
total and complete until the day she died. For several years before she and
Willie married she kept a diary and a scrapbook with items in it from times
they had spent together. On every page of her diary was a reference to her love
for Willie, except one page when she was upset because Willie had not been to
see her when she was expecting him. She also kept, what appears to be, every
card she and Willie exchanged and cards received from others.
Lucille also was deeply committed to God. Before her health deteriorated she
was very active in Purcell United Methodist Church in Charlotte. She taught
Sunday School, helped with Bible School, lead a missionary circle. She was one
of the last great communicators by mail. She loved to write letters and receive
them. She always sent cards and notes to those who were sick or shut in. Lucille
and Willie believed in tithing, giving ten percent to the Lord. They were very
particular about who they gave that ten percent to. Lucille contributed $7 to
$10 per month to several charities that helped children and the poor. When her
house in Charlotte was sold she divided up the ten percent and send contributions
to Purcell United Methodist Church, Boykin United Methodist Church (where she
grew up) and St. John United Methodist Church (where Willie attended before
his family moved to the Gibson UM Church). She may have given some to Laurel
Hill United Methodist Church where she was attending prior to her death.
Lucille said, after Willie's death, that when she dreamed of him he was always
turning away from her and leaving. Several days prior to her death she told
that she had dreamed of Willie and he embraced her.
Notes for WILLIE HARRIS GIBSON, JR.:
Copy of Death Certificate in possession of daughter, Anne Gibson (Tindall) who,
with others of Willie's family members: son and daughter-in-law, Willie P. and
Judith Angus Gibson; son-in-law Carl O. Tindall; granddaughter Jennifer E. Tindall
(Caviness); wife, Lucille Newton (Gibson) and Hospice Nurse Jessica Broome,
were at his bedside when he died.
Willie was loved by all who knew him...adults, children and animals. He was
the type of person who accepted and loved you as you were. He might not agree
with you about certain lifestyles you might adopt---but you always knew he loved
you anyway. He was a dedicated family man, a kind and loving husband, father,
grandfather & great-grandfather. During the last six months of his life
as the cancer was eating away at his frail body he would insist that his entire
family present at meal times sit at the small round dining room table together.
Sometimes there would be ten to twelve of us there, but he squeezed us all up
to the table. Before his death he told his daughter Anne that when he died the
rest of the family was just losing one member but he was losing his whole family.
He also loved his God and his church, Purcell United Methodist in Charlotte.
On his deathbed with family members surrounding him, he said "Thank you
sweet Jesus for letting me live in this beautiful world of yours". Willie
met every day with a song in his heart and joy at seeing the beauty of nature.
He loved his vegetable garden and he had a green thumb with plants and flowers.
He helped so many people..many not known about until he died and stories of
how he helped someone came to light. He visited shut-ins once a week for years
prior to being incapacitated with the cancer that killed him. He mowed the grass
of the widows in his neighborhood and fixed things around their houses when
necessary. He maintained the grounds at Purcell Church and was the person called
upon when anything needed fixing. He was a jack of all trades - cars, repairs
around the house, lawn mowers, he loved to tinker with anything mechanical .
He LOVED TO FISH! In the beginning of their marriage wife Lucille was a "fishing
widow". In the latter years of his life he chose one day, Tuesday, as his
weekly fishing day. He could catch fish when no one else was getting a nibble.
Willie was also very superstitious and dreamed dreams that came true. If a black
cat crossed his path, walking or riding in a car, he would turn around and go
another way.

7. SUSAN MARGARET7 NEWTON (JAMES PRESTON6, JAMES
R.5, GILES4, YOUNGER3, YOUNGER2, GILES1) was born 07 March 1920 in Marlboro
County, SC, and died 05 April 2009 in At home, Gibson, Scotland County, NC.
She married AUSTIN COLUMBUS GIBSON 24 February 1943 in Bennettsville Marlboro
County South Carolina, son of WILLIAM GIBSON and MINNIE PARKER. He was born
01 September 1918 in Scotland County, NC, and died 09 March 1997 in Scotland
County, NC.
Margaret’s eulogy:
Margaret first asked me to deliver her eulogy in 1997. I nervously agreed. Why
was I nervous? Because Margaret was very precise about how she wanted anything
to be.....her clothes, her hair, her house, her yard, her family. She had strong
opinions and expected all of us to adhere to them. About three weeks before
her death she asked me to go ahead and write her eulogy so she could read it!
Of course I convinced her that I couldn’t do it then but that didn’t
help my nervousness. I know that she will be listening to this so I’ve
asked other family members to share memories of Margaret that I will use. That
way maybe she won’t just be mad at me if it doesn’t suit her. And
Margaret, just know, I’m doing the best that I can.
Margaret grew up on a farm. She was number 8 of 12 children, three of whom died
in infancy. This was a time when homes were heated by fireplaces and the wood
stove in the kitchen. It was a hard life, there was not much money but the one
thing Margaret and her siblings had was love.
Margaret married a farmer. She helped in the fields, helped feed the livestock
and the field hands, kept the books for the farm, killed hogs and had many ups
and downs in the marriage, but she always had love in her heart and showed it
in her life and the way she treated others. Nephew Gary says the greatest memory
(he has) of Margaret was her love. He says he always felt loved when he was
around her and will always cherish the time spent with Margaret, Jimmy and Austin
and remembers those times like it was yesterday.
Margaret was a strong-willed, determined woman. She had three different kinds
of cancer and beat them all. When she was in her 80’s she fell and broke
her pelvis, but was up and running in 4 months from that. She loved for family
to visit, but when she knew they were coming, the spent days cleaning what to
me was an already spotlessly clean house. One summer several years ago she painted
the back porch in 100 degree temperature because family was coming. The reason
she always said I was like a mama to her is because I kept telling her she didn’t
need to do all of that because family was coming to see her, not her house and
most of us were coming from houses not quite as spotless as hers. But she still
did her thing.
Nephew Vernon (whom we call Butch) says “Aunt Margaret’s house has
always been open to family, and I think everyone just felt at home with Margaret.
Her deep faith and love of God also made a great impression on me and my life.
To me Margaret became the “glue” for the family after Grandma Newton
passed away, and we were all thankful for that part of her life. Margaret’s
life was very tough, with many bumps and humps, but she came out of those times
not beaten, but as a stronger person. Her love of her yard, flowers, goats,
and family. stands out in my mind. And the best part? If I called at least an
hour or two before dropping by for even a very short visit, I knew I stood a
95% chance of have a wonderful lemon pie sitting on the table.
Grand niece Tracy says that Margaret was so elegant, beautiful, warm, sincere
and witty and she will always remember her with so much love. Niece Helen Anne
recalls that Margaret was so kind and caring yet such a strong woman who was
so much like grandma. Helen Anne also remembers how her mom, Margaret’s
sister Irene, and Margaret loved to talk about clothes and be such smart dressers....and
Margaret had shoes to match every outfit she had. I’m sure Louise Ellis
and her sister Kathleen can relate to this because the three of them traveled
all over this part of the country shopping. Oh, how Margaret loved to shop.
I’m sure that if there is a huge shopping mall in heaven, Margaret will
find it! And all of that shopping showed in the elegant way that Margaret dressed.
And she certainly didn’t mind mentioning to the rest of us how we might
make improvements in our appearance! Niece Gigi recalls last August when Margaret
was getting ready to go to the Newton Reunion and making last minute adjustments
to her clothes and fiddling with her hair. Gigi commented on how pretty Margaret
looked. Margaret’s reply was that she believed God meant for us to look
as pretty as we can. Gig says that was so Margaret...Leave it to her to be looking
the best she could and doing the Lord’s work at the same time.
Margaret did love the Lord and her church, this church, was very important to
her as were the people in it. One of your members had expressed many times his
fondness for Margaret and one day when Margaret and her daughter-in-law Karen
were in the produce department of Walmart they saw him. Karen said to him that
Jimmy was looking for a new step father who had a good running lawn mower and
would he propose to Margaret right then and there. So in the banana section
of Walmart he asked Margaret would she marry him and Margaret just looked at
him and said No, I’m not interested in getting another man in my life.
Margaret would do anything for her family, but marriage was not one of them.
So Jimmy is still stuck with a not so good lawn mower.
Margaret was quite a jokester also. And her jokes were always directed at her
family because she knew they would not take them seriously. For instance, several
days before she became bed ridden, she told Jimmy and Karen that she had saved
up some money that she wanted to take to Heaven with her and asked them to go
get it. Well, of course, they asked why in the world she wanted to take money
with her to Heaven. She very dryly answered, Because I want buy Jimmy a ticket
so when he gets there they’ll let him in. We have all enjoyed this last
one of her jokes immensely. For any who are concerned that Margaret thought
Jimmy might not get to Heaven through God’s grace, rest assured she had
already told him several weeks before that she knew she had nothing to worry
about when it came to him. She knew that Jimmy believes in God and His Son,
Jesus and sees Them and Their Work in the fields, animals and all of Nature.
Margaret knew that Jimmy prays throughout the day and that he is a good man.
She was very proud of, and loved very much, her boys.....Jimmy and J. J.
Margaret has left us with many fun memories. Sitting in her kitchen or gathered
in her yard laughing, sharing memories of years past. One of my memories revolves
around her love of cooking. When I am expecting 10 or so people for a meal,
I probably cook too much, but my bowls look like they could feed 10 or more
people. Eating at Margaret’s always reminded me of the story of Jesus
feeding the multitudes. She would have small bowls of food that I would look
at and think this cannot be enough for all of us. But we would all be full and
there would be food left over. Amazing!!
Margaret’s joy of life and living are evident in grand niece Mychel’s
memory of Margaret grabbing her in the hallway and dancing with her as some
stuffed animal, maybe a reindeer, played the song “Shout”. As niece
Debi says Aunt Margaret was always younger than I was and she was always cool!
No matter her age, she was always cool!.
Margaret’s youngest niece, Lisa, recalls when she visited playing out
in the yard with J.J. and running full force down the hallway and out the back
door. Lisa and some of the younger nieces and nephews don’t have the memories
that us older ones have of being at Grandma and Grandpa Newtons so Margaret’s
home became the place where those kinds of memories were made for them, And
that was what Margaret wanted to happen at her home. Lisa recalls Margaret in
the kitchen cooking, baking, and laughing and remembers how the house always
smelled good. Lisa remembers that her mom, Margaret’s sister Lanie, was
always at her happiest at Margaret’s. When Lanie visited she and Margaret
would tear up the roads going to see places, family, and friends known over
the years. Margaret and Lanie would put on their “I look cute” hats
and just roam around the yard, looking cute.
During Margaret’s last days the words heard most often were “I Love
You”. These words were spoken to Margaret by family and friends and they
were spoken to each other as hugs were exchanged when coming into the house
or leaving. Margaret showed her love in many ways, but one of the most important
was how she made her house and its surroundings reminiscent of the good old
days, those days when family and friends dropped by and felt the warmth and
friendship that brought back the sweet memories from our childhoods of long
ago. Margaret’s legacy is not money or property; her legacy is the love
she had for family and friends. And I know she expects us to carry on with that
love and we will. At one point in her illness Margaret whispered to her daughter-in-law
Karen, “You remember me”. So this part of the eulogy is for Margaret
whom I know is listening.
Margaret,
You will be remembered when the flowers bloom in spring
And in the summertime remembered in the fun that summer brings.
You will be remembered when fall brings leaves of gold
In the wintertime, remembered, in the stories that are told.
And you will be remembered each day right from the start
For the memories that we once shared forever live within our hearts.
So we say to Margaret, We Love You, now “Go Rest High on That Mountain,
Your work on earth is done”.
