In 1635, "Wessacucon" became known as the plantation of Neweberry. Over time, parts of Newbury were taken to form Newburyport (1764 and 1851) and West Newbury (1819). Other adjoining towns include Rowley to the south, and Georgetown and Groveland to the west.

Pages 1-88 contain an original account of land divisions 1-10, Browns Garden 1-2, and lots sold by the Proprietors Committee--with dates of about 1686-1729/30. The remainder of the book, pages 89-103, are a transcript of the original "pasture book," with earliest date of 29 May 1714. Both original records and transcript seem to contain different data from the volume below.

This book, with dates ranging from 1655-1740, details multiple land divisions, including those for wood lots, garden lots, river lots, pasture lots, and "old towne" lots. It describes each property, and identifies the owner, but seldom provides the date of the grant. This makes it nearly impossible to determine dates of the various divisions. Accordingly, dates on fiche titles may not be correct. For alphabetical lists of proprietors of, perhaps, 1704, see pages 88-124. Note, also, land grants of 1732/3 on fiche 138.

No volumes of this content, however, could be located for filming at the town halls of either Newbury or Newburyport (created 1764 from Newbury), nor do they seem to be copied into the Transcripts series at the State Archives. Names, accordingly, may be referenced here that do not appear in the printed vital records.

Newbury [Records of Births & Deaths 1635-1735, plus] Index of Births [& Deaths] 1635-1790. 209 pages. Typed WPA project. Births of 1635-1735 may come from a Register of 1635-1844. Deaths of 1635-1735 are referenced to the Register of Deaths, Publishments & Marriage (Vol 1); as well as from a Book of Deaths (Vol 3). Volume 3 may contain records of 1732-1844. Birth and death indexes of 1635-1790 are referenced, respectively, to volumes 1 and 2, and volumes 1 and 3. Tight binding hides some data in the birth index. Of special interest, on page 123, is a poem about death and a warning to "Compare ye old Book with This one." Page numbers in parenthesis reference an original record; numbers in braces reference a transcript (or typescript).

Newbury [Publishments 1706-1735/6 ; Marriages 1703-1735; Out-of-Town Marriages 1684-1799, with Indexes to 1790]. About 320 pages. Typed, WPA project. Except for out-of-town marriages, most data in this typescript seems to be taken from original volumes IV (fiches 192-200) and I. Indexes to 1790 are arranged by year (with the first two marriage entries linked to 1646) and reference page numbers in the original volumes, as well as those in transcripts (or typescripts) of the same volumes. Though this book contains no deaths, the title page references "The Register of Deaths [1635-1735], Publishments, & Marriages" [Vol I], and contains the same poem and warning found on page 123 of fiche 170.
