I would be most interested in any information pertaining to the Newsoms or
to the Sloughs of Owen Co., IN. Is the book you reference available through
the Owen Co. Historical Society or somewhere else that you know of? The
information that you gave us regarding Andrew Jackson Newsom was very
interesting to me, and has been added to my own family history.
Thanks!

Subject: [INOWEN] Louisa HARTMAN and Newsoms
Not much info on Louisa Hartman other than through her marriage to
John
Storm Beem and their daughter who married Andrew Newsom (below). This
info is from "Owen County Indiana ~a history~ 1994.
ANDREW JACKSON NEWSOM,
PHARMACIST IN OWEN COUNTY 1870s
AND 1880s
Andrew J. Newsom (1847-1884) died of pneumonia at his home on N.
Montgomery St. in Spencer, Indiana at age 37 and is buried in the Beem
Circle at Riverside Cemetery in Spencer. He married Frances Beem,
daughter of John Storm Beem and Louisa Hartman on March 15, 1871.
Frances Beem's father John Storm Beem (1826-) was the grandson of
Captain Daniel Beem born in 1754. Daniel's father was born on board ship
migrating from Germany to Philadelphia. The German name was Boehm.
Daniel emigrated from North Carolina to Kentucky in 1790 then emigrated
to Jackson County, Indiana near Brownstown. In 1817 he moved to Owen
County. He built his log cabin where the Riverside Cemetery is now
located in Spencer. He laid claim to that land and later had a surveyor
layout the town of Spencer. He had three sons: Neely, Enoch, and Levi
and three daughters: Rebecca Elizabeth, and Anna. Neely (1788-1835) had
two sons: John Storm and Richard. John's daughter Frances married Andrew
Newsom.
Andrew Newsom was the son of Henry and Loella (Walls) Newsom natives of
North Carolina. Henry and Luella married in 1841 in Greene County,
Indiana and located there on a farm. Henry's parents were James Byron
and Celia Ann Cane. James Byron's father was Jacob from Southampton
County, Virginia, Newsoms, Virginia. Andrew graduated from Wabash
College in Crawfordsville, Indiana and served as a pharmacist in
Worthington, Indiana. He then purchased half interest in his
father-in-law's business, the firm was known as "Beem and Newsom" and
was located on the southwest corner of the square in Spencer.
Andrew had seven children: Otis Tilford, Grace, Winifred, Lola E.,
Nellie B., Earl, and Mayme. My husband is the grandson of Otis Tilford
(1872-1951). Ron's father was Wayne Andrew (1901-1963), one of five sons
of Otis T. and Buryle Trolove. The other four brothers were named:
Frederick Raymond, Don Huston, Paul Beem (died in infancy), and Otis
Elmer. There was a daughter named Mary Louise. The other son of Andrew
was Earl Jackson "Peck" (1880-1962). He had only one son named Jack
Badger (1908-1977). Jack's widow is presently living in Spencer and was
the former Virginia White. Jack and Virginia had one son, Jack Ncwsom
who presently is a pharmacist in Cloverdale, Indiana and resides in
Spencer. He has two sons Erie Tyner and Paul David and a daughter Melisa
Louise.
Andrew has only 6 Newsom "sons" surviving him as of 1993. All of his son
Otis' boys had daughters with the exception of my husband Ronald Wayne,
only son of Wayne. Ronald Wayne (1933) lives in Green Lake, Wisconsin
and is the Vice President of Development at the American Baptist
Conference Center. He has a son Douglas (1961) and Douglas has a son
Kyle (1993). Ron's second cousin Jack, and Jack's two boys Erie and Paul
comprise the 6 male Newsom descendants of Andrew.
Andrew had four brothers and a sister. Andrew's brothers, Alvis Newton,
William J., James H., and Charles R. have many male descendants, but
that's another story. Submitted by: Marliyn (Logan) Newsom, wife of
Ronald Wayne Newsom
========================= end
Only other listing for HARTMAN is for a Mattie J. Hartman, daughter of
William D. Hartman and Ida Mae Martin, who married Russell H. Hancock in
1915.
The writing is about "The Russell H. Hancock Family History".
... that is it!
