The last name is Newcomb  but it isn't the real last name. There were three 
children about 1845 that were adopted or taken as wards and their names were 
changed to Newcomb. I  do not know what it was before. The story is that the 
parents died or were killed and they were taken in by a family in Duplin 
County. I think they lived in Duplin County before the death of their 
parents. 
My Great, Great Grandfather was James Newcomb and died in Wayne County.
