The baptisms of their other six children are recorded in the Congregational Church at Truro, 2 June 1717. At a meeting of proprietors of Pamet Lands, 2 July 1703, three or four acres of land near the swamp above Thomas Newcomb's were granted to Michael Atwood. Mr. Newcomb's name is upon an original petition from the inhabitants of Billingsgate, alias North Eastham, to the legislature, 1723, concerning attendance on public worship, the petition now on file in Mass.
