NEWSOME, Mary Ellen (ABNEY) - b. 27 JAN 1837 AL, d.
19 SEP 1863 prob. in Muscogee Co, GA, apparently due
to complications from childbirth, dau. of Absolom &
Rosannah (HALL) ABNEY; m. 16 DEC 1855 in Musocgee
Co, GA to Henry M. NEWSOME, brother to F. Penelope
NEWSOME, James NEWSOME, and Elizabeth (NEWSOME)
BELCHER who are buried at Clapp’s. After Ellen’s
death, Henry m2. Permelia A. PAGE, whose brother
William PAGE is also buried at Clapp’s. Henry and
Permelia were living in the Clapp’s Factory
community on 29 JUL 1869 when their daughter, Candis
Dorinda NEWSOM was born (per family Bible record).
None of Henry’s five children by Ellen is known to
have survived to adulthood, and they too are likely
buried at Clapp’s Cemetery. (However, Ellen’s and
the children’s interments there are speculative at
this time.) According to family Bible records, they
are (probably all b. and d. in Muscogee Co, GA):
