RICHARD NEWLON (deceased), one of Polk Townships most prominent citizens,
was a native of Kentucky, where he was born November 13, 1806, to William
and Nancy Newlon, who came to this State about the year 1818, and settled
in what is now Franklin Township.  When young he received a very good
education.  February 8, 1833, he married Sarah Coleman, who bore him
eleven children, of whom but three are now living:  Mary A., now Mrs.
Dennis Brewer, Lucy J., wife of McWeddle, and Samuel, who married Sarah
Cartwright.  His occupation was principally farming, at which he made a
decided success, owning at the time of his death 500 acres of land, beside
having amassed quite a large personal estate.  He was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church for about thirty years perior to his death, and
also belonged to the Masonic fraternity.  He died April 18, 1884, of
cancer, which had bothered him for several years.  In politics he was a
Republican and could always be found a warm advocate of that party.  July
8, 1863, he was grieved by the death of his beloved wife, Sarah A. 
September 6, 1869, Mary Cartwright became his second wife.  Samuel now
occupies and owns the old homestead, 160 acres of the old tract.
