My last name is Newton.<br /><br />Curiously, my father's name on his birth certificate was John Newton because his parents couldn't agree upon a name and the doctor just put down "John Newton." Years later when he joined the Army during WWII, he had his name legally changed to what his parents eventually agreed on. <br /><br />Like John Newton's wife, my mother's name is Mary Newton.<br /><br />John Newton is truly an inspiring figure. My parents visited the same church as you about 15 years ago.DADvocatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04621021178600799126noreply@blogger.com
