  1. 1.  Newhook, Charles W. was born on 9 Jan 1751/52 in Tarrant Gunville, Dorset, England; was christened on 9 Jan 1754 in Tarrant Gunville, Dorset, England; died on 18 Nov 1799 in Trinity, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, Canada; was buried on 24 Nov 1799 in Trinity, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, Canada.

    Notes:

    The Encyclopedia of Newfoundland and Labrador, Charles Newhook, "Newhook came to Newfoundland from Europe around 1777 to work for the mercantile firm of Benjamin Lester. An 1808 note in the register at St. Paul's Anglican Church in Trini ty indicates that the name Newhook is from the French Huguenot name Nuik, and it is generally agreed that the first Charles Newhook was of French extraction." Several Newhook researchers no longer believe the validity of a Huguenot connection.

    N. C. Crewe: Charles Newhook died at Trinity relatively young. The epitaph on his headstone, in St. Paul's churchyard there, reads as follows: "In memory of Charles Newhook, who departed this life the 18th November 1799, aged 47 years. Also of hi s daughter, Sarah Newhook, who departed this life the 7th November 1798, aged 2 years and 9 months."

    Early records at St. Paul's Anglican Church, Trinity, lists his surname as Newick. They also list his middle initial as "W".

    There is a record (St. Paul's, Trinity) for a child (illegible name) baptized on April 17, 1785. The parents were "Cha(s)" and "Eliz(h)".

    Charles married Wilcox, Elizabeth on 17 Jan 1804 in Trinity, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, Canada. Elizabeth was born in 1755 in Tarrant Gunville, Dorset, England; died about 1806 in St. Paul's Anglican Church, Trinity, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    (1995), by Garry Cranford with Raymond Hillier: Charles Newhook II was the
    town's leading citizen. When his wife died, a scribe at Trinity recorded,
    "Monday, 2nd April, 1810, Charles Newhook arrived from New Harbour in a
    schooner with his wife's corpse on board."The Encyclopedia of Newfoundland and Labrador: "The eldest son ... he may have been born in New Harbour, church records giving his birthplace as 'Trinity Bay'. ... son of Elizabeth and Charles Newhook. .. . Newhook was killed in St. John's in the spring of 1839 when he fell from the mast of a wrecked vessel on which he had been working".

    (11) William Newhook (Trinity), 1782

    Born at "Trinity Bay," assumedly Trinity, in 1782, second child of Ch arles Newhook (first). He married Mary McGrath of Trinity in 1808. Fordistinction, I affix the word Trinity to his name, as he was the only son of Charles Newhook (first) to spend almost his entire adult life in that place. His first child was bo rn at New Harbour in 1809, where he therefore must have lived for a short time.

     

    I have a Servant's Agreement, made at Trinity in 1819, whereby William Newhook (Trinity) agrees to serve Robert Slade, merchant there, for one year in the capacity of master shipwright, for the wages of fifty pounds for the whole period, plus an agreed list of provisions each month.

     

    In Bayly's "list of Ships surveyed," quoted in section (4) above, there is liste d the brig Black Prince, 132 tons, built in Trinity in 1841 with the name of Wm. Newhook as builder.

     

    In Accession no. 253, at the Newfoundland Archives, there is a manuscript "List of Mr. Robert Slade's Servants at Trinity , Fall 1811." In it, William Newhook is listed as master shipwright from October 1811to May 1812, at the wages of 110 shillings per month.

     

    No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that William Newhook (Trin ity) master-built or repaired.

    William married Megrath, Mary on 31 Oct 1808. Mary (daughter of Megrath, Philip and Cath) was born on 10 Dec 1792 in Trinity, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, Canada; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    14) James Newhook (Norcove), 1788

    Born at Trinity in 1788, fifth child of Charles Newhook (first). His adult life was spent partly at Trinity, partly at New Harbour, perhaps partly at Dildo and certainly finally at Norman's Cove, Trinity Bay, at which last place he appears to have settled about the year 1835. He was the first progenitor in Norman's Cove of all the subsequent Newhookpeople there. He married first Elizabeth Green, of New Perlican, in 1811, and one of their children was Mrs. Catherine Tilly, of section (2) above. I affix the abbreviation Norcove to his name, because of his final residence at Norman's Cove. He is said to have had twenty-one children by his two wives.

     

    In Bayly's "List of Ships surveyed," quoted in section (4) above, thereis listed the brig Mary, 109 tons, built in Chapel Arm, near Norman's Cove, in 1841, with the name Jas. Newhook, Senr., as builder. This is obviously James Newhook (Norcove).

     

    His great-grandson, the late Charles Newhook (died at Norman's Cove in 1962, aged 86) knew that he had built one ice-hunter on the beach at Norman's Cove, but was of opinion that most of the vessels he built were fishing sch ooners.

     

    On page 82 of volume one of his book "Excursions in and about Newfoundland," John B. Jukes mentions that when he sailed by Norman's Cove in July1839 there was a small schooner on the stocks there.

     

    < p> No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that James Newhook (Norcove) master-built or repaired.

    James married Green, Elizabeth on 28 Dec 1811 in St. Paul's Anglican Church, Trinity, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland. Elizabeth was born about Jun 1792 in Scilly Cove, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland or Heart's Content, Trinity Bay; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    He From "Pot Heads and Drumhoops, A Folk History of New Harbour, Trinity Bay"
    (1995), by Garry Cranford with Raymond Hillier: "Newhook was married at
    Trinity, in Garland's parlour in 1821, apparently at the tender age of
    fifteen years.
    The following is the entry from "Newhook Master Shipbuilders" article. This is the section about this Charles.
    "Charles Newell Newhook (third), 1806-71
    Born at New Harbour in 1806, eldest son of Charles Newhook (second). He must have been educated at
    Trinity or Harbour Grace, or some other place with a better school than would have been found at
    New Harbour. He wrote a fine hand, and was for many years, down to his death, the Justice of the
    Peace, and the leading inhabitant, at New Harbour. I feel he was the best educated of all the
    Newhook stock in Newfoundland, until the emergence of his grand-nephew, the late Doctor
    William H. Newhook, M, D., who died at Whitbourne about 1963.
    About 1830 Miss Sarah Lander, daughter of the deceased sea-captain, Thomas Wise Lander, came out
    from Poole, England, to visit her re-married mother, then Mrs. William Davis Cross, at Trinity,
    A fortune-teller had told the young lady that the first man she would meet in Trinity would marry
    her. Sure enough, Charles Newell Newhook (third) was the first to help her off the vessel in
    Trinity, and in 1831 they were married there, where their first child was born next year.
    Then he moved from Trinity to New Harbour, where he succeeded his father as master shipbuilder,
    presumably for the Garland firm or its successor in business, and his father moved back to Trinity.
    In New Harbour, Charles Newell Newhook (third) took over the plastered house, and some of his
    fifteen children were born in it. But about 1845 he purchased, from its then owner, the large
    house that the Garland firm had built for their agents' residence, together with the extensive
    land and premises, on what is now called Newhook's Point. This house was occupied in our day by
    his son, Postmaster John Newhook, whom I first met there one Sunday in 1928; it was taken down
    by its last owner, John's daughter, about 1958.
    Charles Newell Newhook (third) was both a master shipbuilder and a merchant, or merchant's agent,
    during his life at New Harbour. Philip Tocque refers to him, on page 138 of his book "Newfoundland
    as it was and as it is in 1877" as "merchant and shipbuilder." His grandson, Mr. Robert F. Newhook,
    of 29 Amherst Heights, St. John's, tells me that he had some connection at New Harbour with the
    St. John's firm of Charles Fox Bennett k Co.
    Archdeacon Edward Wix, in his book "Six Months of a Newfoundland Missionary's Journal," relates
    on page 18, first edition, that he walked from Spaniard's Bay across to Trinity Bay one day in
    February 1935. He goes on to say, "... by half past seven p.m., I reached the house of Mr.
    Charles Newhook, junior of New Harbour, a late worthy parishioner of the Reverend William Bullock
    at St. Paul's Church, Trinity, whose father is of French Huguenot extraction." This Charles
    Nieuhook, junior, was Charles Newell Newhook (third), and his father, then living at Trinity, was
    Charles Newhook (second).
    On page 82 of volume one of his book "Excursions in and about Newfoundland," John B. Jukes relates
    that the small ketch in which he was journeying anchored in New Harbour on 17 July 1839, and that
    next day "...... Mr. Newhook, of New Harbour treated us very kindly, and piloted us out in the
    morning ......" This was Charles Newell Newhook (third).
    A letter, written from New Harbour and signed A Rambler, in "The Patriot," a St. John's newspaper,
    on 8 October 1853, speaks of Charles Newell Newhook (third) thus: "...... It is but justice to say
    of Mr. Newhook that he is a double honour and a double credit to this little settlement, a man
    justly respected and esteemed by all who know him. Mr. Newhook is the father of twelve children,
    and I question whether a family of more exemplary moral training is to be found within the precincts
    of our country ......"
    I
    n an obituary of John Newhook (Postmaster at his native New Harbour and last surviving son of
    Charles Newell Newhook), in the St. John's "Evening Telegram" of 12 December 1934, H. F. Shortis
    writes in part as follows: "Charles Newhook built the brig Charles for C. F. Bennett k Co.,
    St. John's. She left St. John's at 4 o'clock one Friday evening in 1834 and on Sunday week
    Mrs. C. F. Bennett attended morning Divine Service in Bristol Cathedral. There are scores of other
    vessels built by the Newhooks that were noted for their great sailing qualities." Mrs. Bennett
    was obviously a passenger on the short crossing.
    Page 3
    A page-long column in an old St. John's newspaper, entitled "Memorable springs and other
    information, Seal Fishery," has this to say concerning the year 1833: "Celebrated for the loss of
    the schooner Union, Capt. Jno. Delaney, with a picked crew of 28 men from Trinity; built by
    Charles Newhook of New Harbour for Jno. B. Garland, merchant; capsized while under full sail.
    April 23rd, the schooners Active and Avon took some of her seals and towed her for 2 days, but
    had to let her go."
    The foregoing builder of the Charles and the Union was, I assume, Charles Newell Newhook (third),
    although he might have been Charles Newhook (second).
    Lawrence O'Brien, merchant of St. John's, advertised in "The Public Ledger" of 8 December 1840 as
    follows: "On sale a new brig (not yet registered) of about 150 Tons Burthen, built at Trinity Bay,
    of the very best materials, by that established Ship-builder, Mr. Newhook, and under inspection
    of the owner; having extra BREAST HOOKS and FASTENINGS, BEAMS, kc, and is of a superior
    description, being intended for the Seal Fishery and the general trade of the country; was launched
    in June last, and now laying at the wharf of the Subscriber (advertiser)."
    The foregoing builder of this new brig was, I assume, Charles Newell Newhook (third), although he
    might have been either of his two uncles, William Newhook (Trinity) and James Newhook (Norman's
    Cove), for whom see below.
    Charles Newell Newhook (third) died at New Harbour in 1871, and his body was taken across the bay
    to Trinity for interment in the family vault in the Anglican cemetery
    No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that Charles Newell Newhook (third)
    master-built or repairedFrom "Pot Heads and Drumhoops, A Folk History of New Harbour, Trinity Bay" (1995), by Garry Cranford with Raymond Hillier: "Newhook was married at Trinity, in Garland's parlour in 1821, apparently at the tender age of fift een years.

    Notes:

    Two of the three sons of this marriage, Robert Penny Newhook and Jonas N. Newhook, became prominant master shipbuilders. They were old enough at the time of their father's fatal accidental death in 1839 to have received some training under him.

     

    (9) Robert Penny Newhook, 1821

    Born at New Harbour in 1821, eldest child of the second marriage of Charles Newhook (second). He was twice married, his second wife being Elizabeth Thorne of New Harbour, an d there were children by both marriages.

     

    During his adult life he is known to have lived in New Harbour, Trinity, Carbonear, New Perlican, Harbour Grace and, perhaps, Bay Roberts. Harbour Grace is the place of his lengthie st abode; he was established there in 1864, and it was very likely his permanent home thereafter. He also worked at shipbuilding in Connecticut, U. S. A., and in Retchibucto, New Brunswick. His grandson, Mr. John Peddle of Harbour Grace, says tha t he used to travel around working his trade, and that he spent at least one year in White Bay.

     

    In his 1934 obituary of Postmaster John Newhook quoted in section (5) above, H. F. Shortis states that Trinity Bay had been fa mous for shipbuilding for over 200 years (an exaggeration in period, I feel), and that none of the places in that bay ever came up to New Harbour when extra good foreign-going vessels were required. He mentions the barque Queen, as beating all co mpetitors on foreign voyages.

     

    I have a framed painting of this barque, obviously based on some older picture of her. There is a printed card inside the glass, reading as follows: "Barque Queen, 240 Tons. Built at New Harbo ur, Trinity Bay, 1856, Robert Newhook, Master Builder." She was built for the Harbour Grace firm of Punton and Munn. Shortis also says the the Queen is mentioned in an old record as having made two trips from Harbour Grace to Brazil in twenty day s (each trip). He further says that the Queen's first voyage was to Liverpool, England, and that there were several passengers, including Postmaster John's brother (who, I find, was Thomas Lander Newhook

     

    An anonymous articl e entitled "The Old Ships," in the St. John's "Daily News" of 31 January 1959, states that the Queen made a trip in 1858 from Liverpool, England, to Harbour Grace in ten days.

     

    Robert Penny Newhook built at Harbour Grace the brig Maggie. "The Newfoundlander," a St. John's newspaper, in its issue of 21 January 1867, reprints the following newsitem from the Harbour Grace "Standard:-"

     

    "The launch of a new and very handsomely modelled brig took p lace yesterday from the building yard of W. J. S. Donnelly, Esq ...... amid the cheers of the assembled multitude and the music of the band of the Benevolent Society ...... she was named the Maggie by the lady of the owner Mr. Donnelly. The Maggi e is a beautifully modelled and substantially built brig, coppered and copper fastened, and is intended for the foreign trade. Her builder, Mr. Robert Newhook, is favourably known to the trade, as a builder of some of the finest and fastest vesse ls sailingfrom the Island, and we feel certain that this ship is equal if not superior to any hitherto built by him ......" The builder's working model of the Maggie is now on display in the Newfoundland Museum. She was lost with all hands in the Mediterranean in 1868.

     

    Rev. Arthur Pittman, a native of New Perlican, Trinity Bay, wrote an article on that place in "The Newfoundland Quarterly" of December 1935 when about 75 years old; it has this sentence: "I can reme mber the firm of Bemister & Co. having two brigantines docked and repaired by Robert Newhook at New Perlican."

     

    W. A. Munn's article in "The Newfoundland Quarterly" of Autumn 1937 erroneously gives Charles Newhook as the Qu een's builder, page 24.

     

    In a list of vessels built in Newfoundland, appended to the Journal of the House of Assembly (or of the Legislative Council) about 1865, there is named a schooner built at Bay Roberts with Robert P. Newhook as the builder.

     

    Besides the Queen and the Maggie, Mr. Peddle recollects that his grandfather built a vessel at Carbonear, presumably for the Rorke firm there. He died suddenly about 1885 whilewalking to Harbour Gr ace from Bay Roberts, where he was building or repairing a vessel. He is buried in Harbour Grace.

     

    In my Slade monograph, published in the St. John's "Evening Telegram" in 1963 (August 29th, page 20), there is listed a Serv ant's Agreement, made at Trinity in 1841, whereby Robert P(enny) Newhook agrees to serve the Slade firm as dockman, i.e. shipwright;he was then about twenty years old.

     

    No names or particulars are known to me of other vesse ls that Robert Penny Newhook master-built or repaired.

  7. 18.  Newhook, Jonas Newell Descendancy chart to this point (2.Charles2, 1.Charles1) was born on 20 Jan 1823 in New Harbour Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, Canada; died in in Jackson Cove, Newfoundland.

    Notes:

    Newhook, Jonas N.

    (1823-1901). Shipwright. Born New Harbour T.B., son of Martha (Penny) and Charles Newhook qv. Married Rachel Knight. From a long line of renowned shipbuilders, Newhook asa young man settled in Jackson's Cove, Green Bay, where he continued the family tradition. His barque Fleetwing, a 249-ton vessel, was described in the Telegraph of St. John's:

    ...coppered high to the bends, of a very superior build, all juniper frame, topsides, rails and covering boards of Baltimore white oak, keelson of white oak and Demerara greenheart with greenheart treenails. This vessel will bear the strictest examination and is, without exception, the fastest vessel in the trade.'' In his sailing autobiography, Wh en Ships Were Ships, Captain William Morris Barnes termed the barque

    the fastest thing ever sailed salt water''. It apparently made numerous trips from Harbour Grace to Pernambuco in record time. Newhook also built the Tasso, another vessel of legendary speed. J.R. Smallwood (1937), ET (June 17, 1965), Newfoundland Historical Society (Newhooks; New Harbour).

     

     

    (10) Jonas N. Newhook, 1823-1901

    Born at New Harbour in 1823, second child of the secon d marriage of Charles Newhook (second). He married Rachel Knight of St. John's. Early in adult life, he settled in Jackson's Cove, Green Bay, where he was a master shipbuilder, and where he died in 1901 and is buried. His grandson, Mr. Chesley Ra lph Newhook of that place only recalls the name of one of the vessels he built, the Fleetwing.

     

    In his salty autobiography "When Ships were Ships," sea-captain William Morris Barnes, born in St. John's in 1850, tells on pag e 9 of the building of this vessel for his family firm of supplying merchants and shipowners, and of her first foreign voyage. He writes, "...... this beautiful bark, the Fleetwing ...... she was the fastest thing ever sailed salt water. She was built down in a place called Green Bay, built by a man called Newhook; he was a smart carpenter ......" Of her first voyage, Barnes writes, "She started out for Brazil and she made a very quick run down, thirty-two days to Pernambuco from St. Jo hn's ...... the captain said that he saw nothing on the whole trip that he didn't come up with and pass, and nothing ever came up and passed him."

     

    In his article "Storms and Ships," page 270 of volume one of Smallwood's "B ook of Newfoundland," captain John P. Horwood writes, "The barque Fleetwing, 249 tons, was built at Green Bay by Jonas Newhook and launched in 1856 ...... she is said to have made three different passages from Harbour Grace to Pernambuco in twent y-one days each passage. An average passage would be about thirty days."

     

    Messrs J. B. Barnes & Co., Captain Barnes' family firm, advertised five vessels for sale by auction in "The Telegraph" of St. John's on 22 September 1858. The advertisement thus describes this vessel: "The well-known Barque Fleetwing, 248 tons, coppered high to the bends, of very supierior build, all juniper frame, topsides, rails and covering boards of Baltimore white oak, keelson of white oak and Demerara greenheart, with greenheart treenails. This vessel will bear the strictest examination, and is, without exception, the fastest vessel in the Trade."

     

    She came to be owned byPunton and Munn, and a newsitem in "The Star" of Harbour Grace, 10 December 1872, reads as follows: "Messrs. Punton and Munn's barque the Fleetwing arrived here yesterday from New York. This fine vessel, now under command of Captain James Pike, made the passage in six days and four hours; the quickest run we believe on record made by any sailing vessel from thence to this port. Captain Pike has of late made some very fast voyages ......"

     

    In the 1934 obituary quoted in section (5) above, Shortis states that the Newhooks also built the Tasso for the firm Stabb, Row and Holmwood, St. John's, the great rival of Kearney's barque Rothesay (meaning that Michael Kearney was the master-builder of that vessel).

     

    In his boo k "Sea Stories from Newfoundland," Michael F. Harrington devotes most of a chapter to a neck-and-neck race between the Rothesay and the Tasso from Demerara, British Guiana, to Cape Spear, Newfoundland. Both barques left Damerara the same day. On the fourteenth day out, August 27th, the Tasso sighted Cape Race and soon afterwards saw another ship nearby, which proved to be the Rothesay and which won the race to Cape Spear by a very few minutes. The author states that the Tasso was then a bout three years old, being "the crowning achievement of the lifework of Jonas Newhook, of New Harbour." This is, of course, Jonas N. Newhook, and he evidently built the Tasso in his native place before moving north to Jackson's Cove.

    &nbs p

    Captain Barnes also writes that there was only one bark that "ever did anything with the Fleetwing," and that was the Tasso. He goes on to say that the captain of the Tasso said that the Fleetwing was the only thing that could ever b eat the Tasso.

     

    To sum up, the credit for producing these two masterpieces of shipbuilding art, the Fleetwing and the Tasso, belongs to Jonas N. Newhook of Jackson's Cove.

     

    No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that Jonas N. Newhook master-built or repaired.

    (12) William Newhook (Catalina), 1823-1902

    Born at Trinity in 1823, son of William Newhook (Trinity). Died in St. John's in 1902. I affix Catalina to his name, as that is the place where he was a master shipbuilder. A grandson is Mr. William T. Newhook, of Churchill Square Apartments, St. John's.

     

    He married Mary Ann Jeans of Catalina in 1850, and lived most of the next twenty years of his life there, where six of his nine children were born. He was both a shipbuilder and a house carpenter, and he helped build an Anglican church at Catalina.

     

    He master-built at Catalina the banking schooners Cactus and Hyderangea for Benjamin Snelgrove, supplying merchant; I myself have seen both vessels.

     

    He moved to St. John's to live about 1890, accompanied by his brother, Charles Newhook (bachelor). He brought with him some old family letters, written in French, which confirms the French extraction of the Newhook family. The letters were lost in the Great Fire of 1892.

     

    No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that William Newhook (Catalina) master-built or repaired.

    (13) Charles Newhook (bachelor), 1817-95

    Born at Trinity in 1817, son of William Newhook (Trinity). Died in 1895 at St. John's, where he is buried. He never married.

     

    In Hutchinson's 1864 Directory, he is listed as a shipbuilder at Trinity.

     

    Messrs. Archibald, and Gilbert G., Christian, of St. John's, men in their eighties, recall him as an old, small, bearded man at Trinity when they were boys there. They know he built a schooner called Lizzie, for their grandfather, George Christian. They say the last vessel he built at Trinity was the Hiawatha, which I myself have seen.

     

    Of his skill, Mr. Archibald Christian relates two anecdotes. First, he shaped a new stem for a vessel under repairs; when brought to be fitted in place, not a shaving had to be pared off it. Secondly, when a shipwright who had built a vessel in Prince Edward Island got nervous about the launching of her, Charles Newhook was brought there from Trinity and did the job.

     

    Mr. Gilbert G. Christian, when about seven, was launched in the new schooner Alberta, which Charles Newhook master-built in Slade's Cove, Trinity, for the local firm of Robert S. Bremmer.

     

    In "The Enterprise," a Trinity newspaper, of 4 December 1909, Rev. Walter R. Smith, who spent a number of years of his youth at Trinity, writes as follows: "I saw the new Dart launched in February 1859. She was a handsome craft, and designed and built by that A1 shipbuilder, Mr. Charles Newhook, who died at St. John's only a few years ago ...... she was not a very fortunate ship ...... In the future, I may speak of the Isabel, Thomas, Trinity and Henry Thomas; all these brigs I saw launched. They were all designed and built by Mr. Charles Newhook."

     

    A letter signed Rambler in "The Enterprise's" issue of 27 November 1909 speaks of "...... a little house in which Mr. Charles Newhook, shipwright, used to keep the models of the vessels Trinity,Henry Thomas and many others which he built."

     

    In the 1934 obituary in section (5) above, Shortis says that the Newhooks built "...... also the famous Henry Thomas, in which Capt. John Houlahan brought in 11,000 seals one spring."

     

    An anonymous article entitled "Harbour Grace History, The Old Ships, etc.," in the St. John's "Daily News" of about 19 May 1959, reads in part as follows:-

     

    "The Henry Thomas, one of the best known ships of those years, was built by Charles Newhook at Stoneman's Dock at Trinity, and was launched on the 8th February 1858. She went to the seal fisheryin March that year under Capt. George Stoneman, and was also employed in foreign parts with Stoneman as master ...... Capt. Field was in charge of her on a voyage to Sydney, and on her way back she was wrecked at St. Pierre. The St. Pierre merchants bought her and had her repaired, and made her the clipper of the French banking fleet. It was said that she could go through ice where other ships would get jammed and that she could run 18 knots."

     

    A newsitem in "The Courier," St. John's, of 17 January 1855, reads as follows:-

     

    "On the 4th of January there was launched from the dockyard of Messrs. R. Slade & Co., Trinity, a fine new brigantine named Isobel, of the burthen of 151 tons, new measurement. She was built by Mr. Charles Newhook, is intended chiefly for the seal fishery, and by competant judge is pronounced a handsome vessel, and as strong as wood, iron and good workmanship can make her. The launch was witnessed by a crowd of spectators all wishing success to the good ship and to her long-established and highly respectable owners."

     

    Mr. Andrew Horwood, of 140 Campbell Avenue, St. John's, tells me that on her first sealing voyage, the Isobel was dismasted in a gale, that she worked into Trinity under jury rig, was re-rigged as a brig and went out to the ice again the same spring.

     

    No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that Charles Newhook (bachelor) master-built or repaired. He was the last Newhook master shipbuilder to practise that calling in Trinity,T. B.

She was built by Mr. Charles Newhook, is intended chiefly for the seal fishery, and by competant judge is pronounced a handsome vessel, and as strong as wood, iron and good workmanship can make her. The launch was witnessed by a crowd of spectators all wishing success to the good ship and to her long-established and highly respectable owners."

    Mr. Andrew Horwood, of 140 Campbell Avenue, St. John's, tells me that on her first sealing voyage, the Isobel was dismasted in a gale, that she worked into Trinity under jury rig, was re-rigged as a brig and went out to the ice again the same spring.

    No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that Charles Newhook (bachelor) master-built or repaired. He was the last Newhook master shipbuilder to practise that calling in Trinity, T. B.

    Notes:

    When I was a small boy at Elliston, Trinity Bay, the grand old lady of the place was Mrs. Robert Tilly. Her husband, the first resident supplying merchant, had died as far back as 1872. I recall her speaking to me about three times; I had even then come to know that she used to say three things about herself. First, that she was born at New Harbour, Trinity Bay, to the name of Catherine Newhook; secondly, that her father and his father, were shipbuilders in Newfoundland; thirdly, that her paternal grandfather was a Frenchman.

     

    Mrs. Tilly died in 1912 at the age of 88, and I attended her funeral. The officiating English-born curate said, in a short address, that her soul was now in Paradise. This doctrinal statement was seriously questioned by my foster-father and his fellow Salvationist, Bobby Hobbs. They were of opinion that clergyman ought to have said Heaven, not Paradise, which the latter place was unknown to them as a country eternal.

     

    In 1928 I married her grand-daughter. Ever since then, I have been gathering data on the Newhook stock, for compiling the family trees of my wife and children. It is my opinion that I now have, on file or in my head, more information about the Newhooks, from their origin in this Province down to the present time, than is known to any other living person, and more than has been known to any other person in the last seventy years.

     

    In the course of research, I have contacted several elderly Newhooks, but all of generations younger than Mrs. Tillys.

    He The following is quoted from the newspaper article "Newhooks, Master Shipbuilders"
    (6) Charles Newhook (fourth), 1834-1915
    Born at New Harbour in 1834, second son of Charles Newell Newhook (third), died there in 1915. He learnt the
    shipbuilding trade at his native place, largely from his father's half-brother, Robert Penny Newhook (see below).
    Charles Newhook (fourth) was the latest of the full-time Newhook master shipbuilders in newfoundland. He practised in the Newhook building dock at Cat Cove, New Harbour.
    His son, Mr Robert Frederick Newhook (78), of 29 Amherst Heights, St. John's, tells me that when he was a boy his father, year after year, would have from one to three vessels in his charge for repairs. He recalled the names of five of them, belo nging to the Rorke mercantile firm of Carbonear, namely, Jessie, Margaret, Orion, L. and S. and Sophia. He has a certificate, written and signed by his father, to the effect that the latter had rebuilt and enlarged the schooner Flying Arrow in 18 84, for George C. Crosby of Brigus. Charles Newhook (fourth) also built at New Harbour the schooner Shamrock for
    the Rorke firm; she was burnt at Emily Harbour, Labrador, while loading fish. Another schooner he rebuilt was the Czar, later lost on the Funks. No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that Charles Newhook (fourth) master-built o r repaired.

    St. John's Evening Telegram
    By H.F. Shortis
    12 December 1934
    Obituary
    John Newhook, of Trinity Bay
    By H.F. Shortis
    John Newhook of New Harbor, Trinity Bay was one of the last of the real old families that made shipbuilding in Trinity Bay for one hundred years.
    We find mention of the Newhook family in the very earliest records. They were originally of French Huguenot extraction, and the real name Niuehook. They were prominently connected with shipbuilding, and many a sealer has been turned out by Charles and Robert Newhook.
    Trinity Bay has been famous for shipbuilding for over 200 years, notably at Trinity, Hant's Harbour, New Perlican, but none of them ever came up to New Harbor when extra good foreign-going vessels were required. They will show you the stockyards at New Harbor where the Newhooks build the barque "Queen" for Punton and Munn, Harbour Grace. The "Queen" was a barque of 240 tons, and beat all competitors on foreign voyages. A few years ago some firm in Brazil compiled a list of all vessels that had reached there in the codfish trade during 30 years - from 1855-1885. These were the days that the Harbor Grace vessels went regularly to Rio de Janeiro, and often took cargoes of sugar and cotton thence to Liverpool, England in payment of their cargoes of fish. On this old record the "Queen" is mentioned as having made two trips from Harbor Grace to Brazil in 20 days. Another Barque of Punton and Munn, the Fleetwing, made three trips to Brazil in 21 day. The Newhooks also built the Tasso, for the firm of Stabb, Rowe, and Holmwood, St. John's the great rival of Kearney's barque Rothesay. Also the famous Henry Thomas in which Capt. Joe Houlahan brought in 11,000 seals one spring. Robert Newhook built the Maggie, a splendid brig for the firm of W.J.S. Donnelly. She was lost with all hands in the Mediterranean in 1868. Capt William Keefe, brother of Cap James L, the sealkiller, was master. Charles Newhook built the brig Charles for C.F. Bennett and Co., St. John's. She left St. John's at 4 o'clock on Friday evening in 1834 and on Sunday week Mrs C.F. Bennett attended morning Devine Service, in Bristol Cathedral. There are scores of other vessels built by the Newhooks
    that were noted for their great sailing qualities. Those quoted above were wonderful quick voyages, and our friend John Newhook would never tire of telling about the Queen, or how his brother was
    passenger on her very first trip to Liverpool with John Munn and his wife, also his son William P, and nephew William M Allan, afterwords so well known as Doctor Allan. The death of John Newhook marks a passing away of a landmark. I had the pleasure of his aquaintance for 60 years. He was one of those real old Newfoundland gentlement of the old school with whom it was a pleasure to meet, and withwhom rich and poor liked to associate. Mr. Newhook was about 80 years of age. Well may it be said he had not and enemy in the world, but hosts of friends who sincerely regret his passing, and sympathize with those after him in their bereavement.

    The following is quoted from the newspaper article, "Newhooks, Master Shipbuilders"
    (7) John Newhook (Postmaster), 1852-1934 Born at New Harbour in 1852, a younger son of Charles Newell Newhook (third), died there in 1934. He inherited the old dwelling house and extensive
    premises on Newhook's Point. While he was a merchant most of his life, and also succeeded his oldest brother as Postmaster, he told me that he master-built a schooner on Newhook's Page 5 Point, whichwas recently confirmed to me by his son-in-law, Mr. Reginald Woodman. N. C. Crewe: "... John's daughter ..."; "his son-in-law Mr. Reginald Woodman". N. C. Crewe: " In an obituary of John Newhook (Postmaster at his native New Harbour and last surviving son of Charles Newell Newhook) ..."

    In an obituary of John Newhook (Postmaster at his native New Harbour and last surviving son of Charles Newell Newhook), in the St. John's "Evening Telegram" of 12 December 1934, H. F. Shortis writes in part as follows: "Charles Newhook built the brig Charles for C. F. Bennett & Co., St. John's. She left St. John's at 4 o'clock one Friday evening in 1834 and on Sunday week Mrs. C. F. Bennett attended morning Divine Service in Bristol Cathedral. There are scores of other vessels built by the Newhooks that were noted for their great sailing qualities." Mrs. Bennett was obviously a passenger on the short crossing.

     

    A page-long column in an old St. John's newspaper, entitled "Memorable springs and other information, Seal Fishery," has this to say concerning the year 1833: "Celebrated for the loss of the schooner Union, Capt. Jno. Delaney, with a picked crew of 28 men from Trinity; built by Charles Newhook of New Harbour for Jno. B. Garland, merchant; capsized while under full sail. April 23rd, the schooners Active and Avon took some of her seals and towed her for 2 days, but had to let her go."

     

    The foregoing builder of the Charles and the Union was, I assume, Charles Newell Newhook (third), although he might have been Charles Newhook (second).

     

    Lawrence O'Brien, merchant of St. John's, advertised in "The Public Ledger" of 8 December 1840 as follows: "On sale a new brig (not yet registered) of about 150 Tons Burthen, built at Trinity Bay, of the very best materials, by that established Ship-builder, Mr. Newhook, and under inspection of the owner; having extra BREAST HOOKS and FASTENINGS, BEAMS, &c, and is of a superior description, being intended for the Seal Fishery and the general trade of the country; was launched in June last, and now laying at the wharf of the Subscriber (advertiser)."

     

    The foregoing builder of this new brig was, I assume, Charles Newell Newhook (third), although he might have been either of his two uncles, William Newhook (Trinity) and James Newhook (Norman's Cove), for whom see below.

     

    Charles Newell Newhook (third) died at New Harbour in 1871, and his body was taken across the bay to Trinity for interment in the family vault in the Anglican cemetary.

     

    No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that Charles Newell Newhook (third) master-built or repaired.
