West Consulting PO Box 8059 Mission Hills CA 91346 Dr. Simon Newcomb The following biography is (slightly revised) from Bethuel M. Newcomb's 1923 Andrew Newcomb and His Descendants Simon Newcomb began his life's career in the stormy days of the Revolution, and the firm decision, stern integrity, and unostentatious dignity of those times seem to have been inherited by him, and were the prominent traits of his character through life. To attempt a sketch of Dr. Newcomb's history would be to write a volume, for he was prominenty identified with professional, financial, political and religious life for more than seventy years. During his infancy, his father moved to Pittstown, Rensselaer County; he spent most of his days in that vicinity. The longest day of his life he counted as 11 April 1796, which is scarcely suprising, as he had commenced to teach a district school, although not quite seventeen! The school was in Millertown District, now North Pittstown. He spent the proceeds of his summer's labor the next winter for board and clothing while attending school. In the spring he returned to the same place and taught two years. In February 1798, he listened to powerful discourses by the eccentric Lorenzo Dow and Timothy Dewey, and was so affected by them that he always attributed his attachment to the Christian faith to their evangelical labors. He joined the Methodist Episcopal Church the following month, and remained an honored member of the church for the rest of his life.
