Stephen Bletcher Newcomb1,2,3

M, #38254, b. 4 February 1816, d. 10 August 1868

  • Birth*: 4 February 1816; Eastrington, Yorkshire, England; Date Feb 4 1816 & location Eastrington, Yorkshire per IGI Record. Date 1815 & location England per 1851 Census. Guessing that Stephen B. Newcombe who had land and mills in the Loomis area in the early years is a brother of Thomas Newcombe who had the mill and Orland. Needs support??2,4,3
  • Marriage*: before 1835; Northumberland Co., Ontario; Principal=Lavina R. Williams
  • Death*: 10 August 1868; Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; Date Aug 10 1868 per Burial. Not in 1871 Census, wife is a widow.5,6
  • Burial*: 12 August 1868; Salem Cemetery, Cramahe Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; Memorial: (See Exhibit) In Memory of; Stephen B. Newcomb; Who died; Aug 10 1868; Aged; ?? (Salem Cemetery, Salem, Jul 10 2004)6
  • Note*: 1839; Ontario; There are no Newcombs in Cramahe Township for the 1839 Census.
  • Census: 1842; Ontario; There are no Newcomb's in Cramahe Township per the 1842 Census. We know that his mother is in Hope Twp. per 1851 Census.
  • Census: 1848; Cramahe Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; 1848 Census: Stephen B.(P?) Newcombe; Conc - Lot - , occ., non-prop.; Miller (Note that no location is shown here - did not own land??)
  • Residence: 1852; Conc 2 Lot 3, Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; Residence per 1851 Census: Conc 2, Lot 3, Brighton Twp., 1/8 acre (Location: West side of Brighton, near Ontario St. corner)
  • Occupation*: 1852; Brighton Twp., Cold Creek, Northumberland Co., Canada West; 1851 Census: "1 Grist Mill in course of erection owned by Steven Newcome, it is on Cold Creek, will cost when finished about L600 produce per annum could not ascertain." per page 3 of 1851 Census, Brighton Twp., pg. 17, line 23 - ancestry.com)
    Note: The question arises - what was the exact location of this grist mill. Was it at Conc 7, Lot 8, 9, or 10 - where the Newcomb's lived? Or was it at Conc 7, Lot 3, at the location where Newcomb's mills would grow later. My understanding is the that Stephen and Joseph Newcomb built the grist mill at Lot 3 in 1869 - not earlier. Any earlier mills were to the west a mile or so. Is this right?
    Note: Considering he got the patent for 3/4 of lot 8, conc 7 in 1860, we can assume this was the location of the mill on Cold Creek per the 1851 census.4,2

  • Census: April 1861; Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; Age 14 at 1861 Census: see Stephen Newcomb6
  • Note: before 1869; Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; " ... in the beginning, it was situated one mile west of the present location, near the present residence of Harry Westlake and had been erected by Harry Young prior to 1869." (from an article by Margaret Goodfellow in 1978 when Ron Hazelwood opened the revamped mill at Orland - per The Tweedsmuir Histories of Codrington, copied from microfilm at The Metro Toronto Reference Library, Nov 2007)7
  • Residence: 1869; Conc 7 Lot 3, Brighton Twp., Newcombs Mills, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "The village of Orland was first known as Newcombs Mills. In 1869 there was a grist mill built on the site of the present mill by James and Joseph Newcomb, the former living where Hazelwoods and the latter where Raycrafts live now. " (first paragraph of story entitled "Log of S.S. No. 20, Brighton; Orland School - Tweedsmuir Histories, Reel 2)
    Note: This confirms what otherwise seems evident by the Land Registry Records (first transaction in 1871) that the mill at Orland was not built until 1869 (or so) - 16 years after the Breakaway. This puts in doubt the often-repeated story of the mill concession at Orland by the Newcomb's coming into play soon after the Breakaway in 1853. The question remains: When was the dam built at Newcombs Mills to carry the highway straight north to Codrington??? At the same time, likely, which means the Percy Road and the various side routes into the villages of Newcombs Mills and Codrington were in use well into the 1870's. It might also be interesting to note that the Newcomb brothers sold out and went to the US in 1877 so were not long in the area after the mill started. The name Newcombs Mills was used long after they were gone.7

  • Note*: 2 August 1872; Brighton Twp., Newcombs Mills, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "At Newcomb’s Mills (now Orland) improvement has again shown itself. A few years ago it was only woods, but now through the energy of the Messrs. Newcomb in erecting their excellent grist mill, there is springing up a nice little village. Mr. C. T. Lane has also a first class carding, fulling and cloth dressing mill there, which has been doing good work." (taken from an article that originally appeared in The Brighton Ensign, August 2, 1872 and was included in an atricle in The Trentonian, July 29, 1983 regarding the 20th Reunion of the Peister-Van Sicklin families held at the Codrington Community Centre.
