Lily Garlitz Newman

"Lily Catherine was the fourth child of Isidore -- born Aug. 2 1881. My mother said they "went west" in a box car --- took all their things in that with them. That was the way pioneers went at that time. I have read they took livestock sometimes too. She is the one who married John Newman They apparently were not well off and she only got back here a time or two. One time she came back she brought mother and I (and I am sure everyone) a tiny China cup and saucer. I still have it. During World War II her daughters Anne and Margaret came back here to visit. I loved them; they were really nice. Years later my husband and kids and I went west and my mother insisted we call the Newmans. Aunt Lily was gone by then. We didn't like to visit relatives we didn't know, so we checked into a Holiday Inn in Seattle and then called. Ann insisted we not sign up for another night and had us come out there. We loved her and her husband, ended up staying there several days. All three of my kids cried when they had to leave to go to Disney Land!!! So you know they were super people. The next year or so, Ann, who had asthma and went to Arizona for the winter, came home for Christmas, got asthma and died. Bill Knoll, her husband, remarried. They had a get together and we met some of the others. Margaret is still living, but Susie, I think the oldest, just passed away last year.Oh yes, the Newmans lived at Selbyville (the road to Oakland from Grantsville) and they flooded it and put in the Deep Creek Lake which destroyed their home. They took their money and went west." from Joan McGowan Collins. Jan. 2001

"I am related to the Washington Newmans on both sides of my family. Lily's husband, John Newman, was a brother to my mother's Grandma Beynon. My father Leonard, son of Orville - brother to Lily, traveled, along with my Uncle Paul, several times to Washington to visit his Newman relatives. He always enjoyed these trips immensely and kept pictures of the Newman family on the bookcase next to his chair in the kitchen." from Tom Garlitz, grand nephew of Lily. Jan 2001
