"Abijah Newell was born in Roxbury, Mass., entered the matrimonial state at Dudley, and took up his residence at Monson about the year 1740. He lived southwest of the central village, where Eli Rogers now resides. He was a farmer by occupation, and had six sons and six daughters. All of these removed from town except Abijah, who remained with his father on the old farm until the latter's death, in 1807, and afterward occupied the place until the end of his life. He married Nancy Burt, of Longmeadow, who was born, however, in Monson in 1760. They had ten children, of whom only three were sons. Austin, still a resident of the town, was born Oct. 17, 1798."
