Isaac Newton
Isaac Newton was a universally attractive man that to this day makes science lovers, fanatical alchemists, and deep-thinking hermeticists gravitate towards his published works. He crafted a vibrant image of himself in many of his self-reflective notes, many of them published posthumously. From his competitive, scholastic desire to constantly improve himself to his love of the dark seclusion of his office, Newton had a very long and prosperous life.

Olivia Newton-John Easterling
Olivia Newton-John was born to Brinley "Bryn" Newton-John (1914–1992) and Irene Helene Born (1914–2003). She had siblings Hugh and Rona who were both older than Olivia. Her father was born in Wales and her mother was born in Germany. Olivia's family moved from England to Australia in 1954, when she was six years old because her father accepted a job as a professor of German and as the master of Ormond College at the University of Melbourne. She began singing as a teenager, forming a group with three classmates which was called Sol Four. It didn't last long but it led to her being a regular on local Australian television shows and also led to winning a trip to Great Britian. While in Great Britian, she recorded her first single "Till You Say You'll be Mine" in 1966. Her old singing partner travelled to Great Britian as well, and they formed a duo which they called "Pat and Olivia", singing in nightclubs. When Pat had to return to Australia, Olivia stayed in Great Britian and began her solo career. Olivia achieved her first real success in show business when she recorded her first album "If Not for You" in 1971. The title track was written by Bob Dylan and its success led to a second album, which wasn't as popular and wasn't released in the United States. However true fame was achieved when she starred as "Sandy' in the film version of "Grease" in 1978, Her co-star was John Travolta and many of the songs became hits. It was the biggest box hit of '78 and was re-released for the 20th anniversary in 1998 and is the 2nd highest grossing film behind "Titanic". Olivia was quoted as saying about the film: "I think the songs are timeless. They're fun and have great energy. The '50s-feel music has always been popular, and it's nostalgic for my generation, and then the young kids are rediscovering it every 10 years or so, it seems. People buying the album was a way for them to remember those feelings of watching the movie and feelings of that time period. I feel very grateful to be a part of this movie that's still loved so much." Olivia was married twice, although she had a long-term relationship, 6 years, with Lee Kramer who was her manager in the 1970s. She married Matt Lattanzi in December 1984, and they divorced in 1995 after having daughter Chloe Rose in 1986. They remained friends. She then married John Easterling, founder and president of the Amazon Herb Company on June 21, 2008, in "an Incan spiritual ceremony in Peru" followed by a legal ceremony on Jupiter Island, Florida. Although they had been living in Malibu California for four decades, she and husband John moved to Jupiter Inlet, Florida in 2009 and then to the Santa Ynez Valley near Santa Barbara California. In 2017, Newton-John's previous bouts with breast cancer had returned and metastasized to her lower back. It was at first misdiagnosed as sciatica. She had first been diagnosed in 1992 and another, unannounced, recurrence was in 2013. The pain was excruciating at the end. Olivia died on August 8, from the metastasized recurrence at her Santa Ynez Valley home. A long tribute to Olivia appeared on CNN Entertainment's website quoting costars and other entertainers. She was loved by many. See the tribute at Olivia Newton-John Easterling: Obituary

"Sewell loved violins from an early age"

My favorite ancestor was my great grandfather, S. L. Newton Boyce - adopted at age 3. His mother was a Hammond, his father, Hubbard Newton. His genealogy goes back to William Brewster through Lucretia Caulkins, wife of Rev. Noah Hammond.

He wrote to his son, Ivan from Nelson, AZ in 1907 saying, "don't put my full name on any more mail as I hate it so badly that no one here or in Col. knew what it is". Anyway, it was Sewell Leonard and I expect that notion did not remain with him forever.

Sewell loved violins from an early age and became proficient in playing, making and teaching that instrument. In Norwich, NY he founded the Boyce Violin Company in 1894. Violin operations were transferred to Buffalo, NY and Kalamazoo, MI but being plaqued with TB, he moved on to Arizona and San Bernadino,CA. He lived there with the Barton family who were instrumental in founding that city. While there he continued violin making, repair and teaching and studied astronomy and microscopy. In 1916 he moved to Clintonville, CT to live with his son and while there operated a water power sawmill. He seldom loss at chess and checkers, composed crossword puzzles, and had a deep interest in scientific things according to family records. Our family feels fortunate to own many of his violins and we have many papers describing how they were made. We also have letters of his travels across the U.S. which are a fascinating description of times gone by.
Sewell Leonard (Newton) Boyce, my great grandfather, was a violin maker in Norwich, NY in 1893. Sewell was adopted by Albert Boyce and Phebe Hoyt when he was about 3 years old. Sewell's mother, Sarah Malvina Hammond died a few weeks after giving birth to him. His father was Hubbard Newton and Sarah was his 2nd wife, the first being Martia ?, and third being Mary Jane Bolles.

Sewell's violins are still showing up and considered fine instruments. Family members also own quite a few, I having one made in 1909 in San Bernadino, CA where Sewell lived with the Barton family. The Barton's were early settlers of San Bernadino.

Because Sewell had "weak" lungs he traveled out West to climates that were considered better for TB which his daughter at age 16 died from in St. Augustine, FL where she stayed with her Uncle Russell Goff who was the general superintendent for the Florida East Coast Railway.

Eventually Sewell returned to Clintonville, CT where he died.
