14) James Newhook (Norcove), 1788

Born at Trinity in 1788, fifth child of Charles Newhook (first). His adult life was spent partly at Trinity, partly at New Harbour, perhaps partly at Dildo and certainly finally at Norman's Cove, Trinity Bay, at which last place he appears to have settled about the year 1835. He was the first progenitor in Norman's Cove of all the subsequent Newhookpeople there. He married first Elizabeth Green, of New Perlican, in 1811, and one of their children was Mrs. Catherine Tilly, of section (2) above. I affix the abbreviation Norcove to his name, because of his final residence at Norman's Cove. He is said to have had twenty-one children by his two wives.

 

In Bayly's "List of Ships surveyed," quoted in section (4) above, thereis listed the brig Mary, 109 tons, built in Chapel Arm, near Norman's Cove, in 1841, with the name Jas. Newhook, Senr., as builder. This is obviously James Newhook (Norcove).

 

His great-grandson, the late Charles Newhook (died at Norman's Cove in 1962, aged 86) knew that he had built one ice-hunter on the beach at Norman's Cove, but was of opinion that most of the vessels he built were fishing sch ooners.

 

On page 82 of volume one of his book "Excursions in and about Newfoundland," John B. Jukes mentions that when he sailed by Norman's Cove in July1839 there was a small schooner on the stocks there.

 

< p> No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that James Newhook (Norcove) master-built or repaired.

Charles, a fisherman, and his brother Phillip were the first

permanent settlers at Winter House Brook establishing

themselves there from Rocky Harbour by 1856 on a point which

became known as Payne's Point, near a br ook later named

Winter House Brook. [CI:697:?2:CI]

Was a Fisherman

Newfoundland September 28, 1818. Charles died October 18, 1874 at Rocky Harbour, Bonne Bay, District of St. Barbe, Newfoundland, at age 56. Age 56 years 20 days. Age 56 years. His body was interred October 23, 1874 at Rocky Harbour, Bonne Bay, District of St. Barbe, Newfoundland. Tombstone Inscription: Charles PAYNE, died October 18, 1874, age 56 years.

He married Elizabeth BRAKE estimate 1840 at Bonne Bay, District of St. Barbe, Newfoundland. Elizabeth was born circa 1819 at Bay of Islands, Newfoundland. Elizabeth was the daughter of John Matthews BRAKE and Elizabeth BLANCHARD. Elizabeth died February 26, 1893 at Winter House Brook, Bonne Bay, District of St. Barbe, Newfoundland, at age 73. Her body was interred March 1, 1893 at Rocky Harbour, Bonne Bay, District of St. Barbe, Newfoundland.

I have no written proof that Phillip is a son of Charles

PAYNE (1818 - 1874) and Elizabeth BRAKE (1817 - 1891). But

there is enough evidence to support the fact that there is

another Phillip PAYNE besides Charles' br other Phillip PAYNE

(1823 - 1873) and Phillip's son Phillip jr. (1863 - 1892).

This Phillip was married to Mary Ann HUMBER and is listed as

having the following children Sarah Jane born 1866 and Rose

Ellen born 1867, leavi ng Phillip to be born approximately

early 1840's. Thus only leaving one family that would

support this date, Charles & Elizabeth PAYNE. According to

Jane HUTCHINGS' book Phillip PAYNE (1823 - 1873) married a

second time to a Mary Ann ??, this would not be the father

of Sarah Jane PAYNE(1866 - ?? ) & Rose Ellen PAYNE (1867 -

?? ) as Phillip's wife Catherine BRAKE (1829 - 1874) did not

die until 1874, a year after the death of her husband.

Ac cording to the second marriage of Mary Ann HUMBER to John

WHITLE, on August 18, 1872 she is listed as the widow of

Philip PAYNE, of Bonne Bay.

(11) William Newhook (Trinity), 1782

Born at "Trinity Bay," assumedly Trinity, in 1782, second child of Ch arles Newhook (first). He married Mary McGrath of Trinity in 1808. Fordistinction, I affix the word Trinity to his name, as he was the only son of Charles Newhook (first) to spend almost his entire adult life in that place. His first child was bo rn at New Harbour in 1809, where he therefore must have lived for a short time.

 

I have a Servant's Agreement, made at Trinity in 1819, whereby William Newhook (Trinity) agrees to serve Robert Slade, merchant there, for one year in the capacity of master shipwright, for the wages of fifty pounds for the whole period, plus an agreed list of provisions each month.

 

In Bayly's "list of Ships surveyed," quoted in section (4) above, there is liste d the brig Black Prince, 132 tons, built in Trinity in 1841 with the name of Wm. Newhook as builder.

 

In Accession no. 253, at the Newfoundland Archives, there is a manuscript "List of Mr. Robert Slade's Servants at Trinity , Fall 1811." In it, William Newhook is listed as master shipwright from October 1811to May 1812, at the wages of 110 shillings per month.

 

No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that William Newhook (Trin ity) master-built or repaired.

Newhook, Jonas N.

(1823-1901). Shipwright. Born New Harbour T.B., son of Martha (Penny) and Charles Newhook qv. Married Rachel Knight. From a long line of renowned shipbuilders, Newhook asa young man settled in Jackson's Cove, Green Bay, where he continued the family tradition. His barque Fleetwing, a 249-ton vessel, was described in the Telegraph of St. John's:

...coppered high to the bends, of a very superior build, all juniper frame, topsides, rails and covering boards of Baltimore white oak, keelson of white oak and Demerara greenheart with greenheart treenails. This vessel will bear the strictest examination and is, without exception, the fastest vessel in the trade.'' In his sailing autobiography, Wh en Ships Were Ships, Captain William Morris Barnes termed the barque

the fastest thing ever sailed salt water''. It apparently made numerous trips from Harbour Grace to Pernambuco in record time. Newhook also built the Tasso, another vessel of legendary speed. J.R. Smallwood (1937), ET (June 17, 1965), Newfoundland Historical Society (Newhooks; New Harbour).

 

 

(10) Jonas N. Newhook, 1823-1901

Born at New Harbour in 1823, second child of the secon d marriage of Charles Newhook (second). He married Rachel Knight of St. John's. Early in adult life, he settled in Jackson's Cove, Green Bay, where he was a master shipbuilder, and where he died in 1901 and is buried. His grandson, Mr. Chesley Ra lph Newhook of that place only recalls the name of one of the vessels he built, the Fleetwing.

 

In his salty autobiography "When Ships were Ships," sea-captain William Morris Barnes, born in St. John's in 1850, tells on pag e 9 of the building of this vessel for his family firm of supplying merchants and shipowners, and of her first foreign voyage. He writes, "...... this beautiful bark, the Fleetwing ...... she was the fastest thing ever sailed salt water. She was built down in a place called Green Bay, built by a man called Newhook; he was a smart carpenter ......" Of her first voyage, Barnes writes, "She started out for Brazil and she made a very quick run down, thirty-two days to Pernambuco from St. Jo hn's ...... the captain said that he saw nothing on the whole trip that he didn't come up with and pass, and nothing ever came up and passed him."

 

In his article "Storms and Ships," page 270 of volume one of Smallwood's "B ook of Newfoundland," captain John P. Horwood writes, "The barque Fleetwing, 249 tons, was built at Green Bay by Jonas Newhook and launched in 1856 ...... she is said to have made three different passages from Harbour Grace to Pernambuco in twent y-one days each passage. An average passage would be about thirty days."

 

Messrs J. B. Barnes & Co., Captain Barnes' family firm, advertised five vessels for sale by auction in "The Telegraph" of St. John's on 22 September 1858. The advertisement thus describes this vessel: "The well-known Barque Fleetwing, 248 tons, coppered high to the bends, of very supierior build, all juniper frame, topsides, rails and covering boards of Baltimore white oak, keelson of white oak and Demerara greenheart, with greenheart treenails. This vessel will bear the strictest examination, and is, without exception, the fastest vessel in the Trade."

 

She came to be owned byPunton and Munn, and a newsitem in "The Star" of Harbour Grace, 10 December 1872, reads as follows: "Messrs. Punton and Munn's barque the Fleetwing arrived here yesterday from New York. This fine vessel, now under command of Captain James Pike, made the passage in six days and four hours; the quickest run we believe on record made by any sailing vessel from thence to this port. Captain Pike has of late made some very fast voyages ......"

 

In the 1934 obituary quoted in section (5) above, Shortis states that the Newhooks also built the Tasso for the firm Stabb, Row and Holmwood, St. John's, the great rival of Kearney's barque Rothesay (meaning that Michael Kearney was the master-builder of that vessel).

 

In his boo k "Sea Stories from Newfoundland," Michael F. Harrington devotes most of a chapter to a neck-and-neck race between the Rothesay and the Tasso from Demerara, British Guiana, to Cape Spear, Newfoundland. Both barques left Damerara the same day. On the fourteenth day out, August 27th, the Tasso sighted Cape Race and soon afterwards saw another ship nearby, which proved to be the Rothesay and which won the race to Cape Spear by a very few minutes. The author states that the Tasso was then a bout three years old, being "the crowning achievement of the lifework of Jonas Newhook, of New Harbour." This is, of course, Jonas N. Newhook, and he evidently built the Tasso in his native place before moving north to Jackson's Cove.

&nbs p

Captain Barnes also writes that there was only one bark that "ever did anything with the Fleetwing," and that was the Tasso. He goes on to say that the captain of the Tasso said that the Fleetwing was the only thing that could ever b eat the Tasso.

 

To sum up, the credit for producing these two masterpieces of shipbuilding art, the Fleetwing and the Tasso, belongs to Jonas N. Newhook of Jackson's Cove.

 

No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that Jonas N. Newhook master-built or repaired.

Lyneham, in this parish, gave name to a family who possessed the manor till about the year 1340: it was afterwards, for a short time, in that of Topcliffe. In the year 1402, it belonged to John Crocker, son of John Crocker, Esq., of Hele. Sir John Crocker, of this family, was one of the knights who were attainted and outlawed by Richard III., and who accompanied the Earl of Devon to the relief of Exeter, when besieged by Perkin Warbeck , in 1497. (fn. 46) Courtenay Crocker, Esq., who died in 1740, left an only daughter, who brought Lyneham to James Bulteel, Esq., grandfather of John Bulteel, Esq., of Fleet, the present proprietor. Lyneham is now a farm-house. There was formerly a park here. Windsor, in this parish, gave name to a family who possessed the fee of this barton by the gift of William Lord Rous. One of the coheiresses of Windsor married Richard Fortescue, from whom, says Sir William Pole, descended the Forte scues of the east part of England. Afterwards Windsor became the property and residence of a younger branch of the Crockers of Lyneham, who, on removing to Bovey Tracey, sold this estate, in the reign of William III., to Dr. Blackall: it was by h im bequeathed to Colonel William Scott, of Essex, and has been lately purchased of Colonel William Henry Scott, of the 3d Foot-guards, by Mr. Bastard.

Richard ASH was a fisherman born and raised in Carbonear,

owning his own vessel. He went annually to the Belle Isle

with his family to take part in the summer fishery there. It

was on one such voyage that Miriam Alfr eda ASH was born June

6, 1859, second child of Richard ASH and Jane TAYLOR. Five

children are recorded in the Methodist Church Records at

Carbonear between 1857 and 1867. Sometime between 1867 and

1872, he moved with his f amily to the west side of

Newfoundland settling at Trout Rive. In the church records

Robert, a son born on June 12, 1872, baptized July 31, and

died in July. Ezekiel Taylor ASH was baptized in April 27,

1876 by Rev. Geor ge Mullen, age 5 years. His daughter Muriel

(Ash) LOCHHART says her father always said he born in

Carbonear, so they probably moved around 1871. Ruby

Wilkshire BEARS always said that her grandparent's move to

Trout River w as due to the poor heathof Jane Taylor ASH,

the climate being better on the west coast. Richard, as

everyone call him in Trout River, is still spoken of today

by the older people. He has many descendents living all

over Canada and United States as well as in the Corner

Brook, Summerside, Irishtown, Trout River area.

The BLANCHARD's of Parson's Pond and Bonne Bay are

descendants of William BLANCHARD of the Bay of Islands.

William, however, was orignally from Dorsetshire, England.

Papers of Governor Duckworth record William BLANCH ARD living

on the Humber River in 1810: a "cod and salmon fisherman,

selling fish to St. John's."

It is not known how many children William had, but their

were at least 5, including 2 sons William Jr. and Thomas.

Hi s grandson another Thomas (1845 - 1929) may have been the

son of William or Thomas.

J. B. Jukes, an American mentions the BLANCHARD's during a

voyage to the Bay of Islands on August 20, 1839: "We visited

one family about half way down the [Humber] sound .... Their

name was BLANCHARD, and the old man had lived here about

sixty years, having settled there before the breaking out of

the American War. He had several sons that were getting

mar ried and beginning to settle about him. His house, though

small, was neat and comfortable, and he had two or three

small fields under cultivation. They were just getting in

the hay from one small meadow, andit appeared of good

quality. They had very good currants, raspberries, and

gooseberries growing in the garden edges."

Bishop Feild also spoke of William BLANCHARD during a visit

to Gilliam's Cove, Bay of Islands in 1849: "The house is

m ean and dirty, and the old patriarch, who has lived here

nearly seventy years, was in a state of great filth and

discomfort. He is nearly ninety years of age. His mental

faculties are good, but his bodily strength is nearly gone .

He welcomed us kindly, spoke with pleasure of Archdeacon Wix

.... This is, I believe, the second time only in nearly 70

years that he has seen a clergyman..." [CI:136:?2:CI]

Two of the three sons of this marriage, Robert Penny Newhook and Jonas N. Newhook, became prominant master shipbuilders. They were old enough at the time of their father's fatal accidental death in 1839 to have received some training under him.

 

(9) Robert Penny Newhook, 1821

Born at New Harbour in 1821, eldest child of the second marriage of Charles Newhook (second). He was twice married, his second wife being Elizabeth Thorne of New Harbour, an d there were children by both marriages.

 

During his adult life he is known to have lived in New Harbour, Trinity, Carbonear, New Perlican, Harbour Grace and, perhaps, Bay Roberts. Harbour Grace is the place of his lengthie st abode; he was established there in 1864, and it was very likely his permanent home thereafter. He also worked at shipbuilding in Connecticut, U. S. A., and in Retchibucto, New Brunswick. His grandson, Mr. John Peddle of Harbour Grace, says tha t he used to travel around working his trade, and that he spent at least one year in White Bay.

 

In his 1934 obituary of Postmaster John Newhook quoted in section (5) above, H. F. Shortis states that Trinity Bay had been fa mous for shipbuilding for over 200 years (an exaggeration in period, I feel), and that none of the places in that bay ever came up to New Harbour when extra good foreign-going vessels were required. He mentions the barque Queen, as beating all co mpetitors on foreign voyages.

 

I have a framed painting of this barque, obviously based on some older picture of her. There is a printed card inside the glass, reading as follows: "Barque Queen, 240 Tons. Built at New Harbo ur, Trinity Bay, 1856, Robert Newhook, Master Builder." She was built for the Harbour Grace firm of Punton and Munn. Shortis also says the the Queen is mentioned in an old record as having made two trips from Harbour Grace to Brazil in twenty day s (each trip). He further says that the Queen's first voyage was to Liverpool, England, and that there were several passengers, including Postmaster John's brother (who, I find, was Thomas Lander Newhook

 

An anonymous articl e entitled "The Old Ships," in the St. John's "Daily News" of 31 January 1959, states that the Queen made a trip in 1858 from Liverpool, England, to Harbour Grace in ten days.

 

Robert Penny Newhook built at Harbour Grace the brig Maggie. "The Newfoundlander," a St. John's newspaper, in its issue of 21 January 1867, reprints the following newsitem from the Harbour Grace "Standard:-"

 

"The launch of a new and very handsomely modelled brig took p lace yesterday from the building yard of W. J. S. Donnelly, Esq ...... amid the cheers of the assembled multitude and the music of the band of the Benevolent Society ...... she was named the Maggie by the lady of the owner Mr. Donnelly. The Maggi e is a beautifully modelled and substantially built brig, coppered and copper fastened, and is intended for the foreign trade. Her builder, Mr. Robert Newhook, is favourably known to the trade, as a builder of some of the finest and fastest vesse ls sailingfrom the Island, and we feel certain that this ship is equal if not superior to any hitherto built by him ......" The builder's working model of the Maggie is now on display in the Newfoundland Museum. She was lost with all hands in the Mediterranean in 1868.

 

Rev. Arthur Pittman, a native of New Perlican, Trinity Bay, wrote an article on that place in "The Newfoundland Quarterly" of December 1935 when about 75 years old; it has this sentence: "I can reme mber the firm of Bemister & Co. having two brigantines docked and repaired by Robert Newhook at New Perlican."

 

W. A. Munn's article in "The Newfoundland Quarterly" of Autumn 1937 erroneously gives Charles Newhook as the Qu een's builder, page 24.

 

In a list of vessels built in Newfoundland, appended to the Journal of the House of Assembly (or of the Legislative Council) about 1865, there is named a schooner built at Bay Roberts with Robert P. Newhook as the builder.

 

Besides the Queen and the Maggie, Mr. Peddle recollects that his grandfather built a vessel at Carbonear, presumably for the Rorke firm there. He died suddenly about 1885 whilewalking to Harbour Gr ace from Bay Roberts, where he was building or repairing a vessel. He is buried in Harbour Grace.

 

In my Slade monograph, published in the St. John's "Evening Telegram" in 1963 (August 29th, page 20), there is listed a Serv ant's Agreement, made at Trinity in 1841, whereby Robert P(enny) Newhook agrees to serve the Slade firm as dockman, i.e. shipwright;he was then about twenty years old.

 

No names or particulars are known to me of other vesse ls that Robert Penny Newhook master-built or repaired.

298 ABBR The Forgotten BayTEXT EARLY SETTLEMENT, INDUSTRY, AND THE ARRIVAL OF THE CHURCH

In 1857 Captain Kelly of the schooner Alice, visiting Lark Harbour on business for the Newfoundland government, reported:
There are no permanent residents in this harbour. Some five or six families from the entrance of the River Humber come here during the summer for the purpose of fishing, the catch of which here is very small. There are ten French brigs and seven schooners from St Pierre in the bay. (38)
Rev Ulric Zuinglius Rule, the first priest of the Bay of Islands Anglican Mission, made a similar statement about the location of settlers in 1865 on his first visit to the Bay:

... the bulk of the inhabitants of Bay of Islands lived not in the actual bay, but along the shores of the estuary of the river Humber, which flows into the main arm of the Bay. (39)

The location referred to by both Captain Kelly and Rev Rule is the stretch of shoreline along both sides of the Humber Arm from the mouth of the Humber River westwards to the present community of Frenchman's Cove, including the community of Birch y Cove (Curling) and "The Beach" (John's Beach) on the south side, and Meadows (the most populous settlement on the north side), Gillams and McIvers on the north side. These were already inhabited when Rev Rule arrived. This shore line is not onl y more sheltered from the violent winds which frequently assail the exposed outer regions of the Bay, but it would also be less exposed to the view of the French naval vessels when they patrolled the area, thus making it a more comfortable place for English settlers. There had been a good salmon fishery in this area for a number of years now, and this, along with the plentiful herring, fur and timber resources, made the area attractive to the settlers.

U Z Rule mentions being warmly welcomed on his arrival by two men, "Strickland and Maurice Derigan", from The Beach. Both names Derigan (now Dar
