Additional Comments:
According to the Provincial "Conditions of Plantation", John Newman(Newnam) 
had to declare his age as 20 or over to be indentured for only 4 years, 
indicating his birth by 1642. In Wills, 205, 18 (1708/09) he gave age 
corresponding to birth in 1642,. In Depositions in 1711, 1714, and 1715 he 
gave ages indicating birth in 1645, 1646, and 1644 resp.- perhaps his 
arithmetic was not too good, he signed  Land Records with a crude cross 
indicating no formal education.
