Answer: Christina:
Thanks so much for the data on Walter Newton. We did not have record of his first m. Did I interpret the data correctly? Hard to tell who the dates belong to. Was Mary Lucinda Sirch b. 5-12-1884 and d. 8-22-1908? Was their daughter Helen Lucinda b. 10-4-1906? Among Ethel Buck's children you have a Virginia, we did not have. Do you know if she survived to adulthood? We would guesstimate her birth somewhere around 1934, too late to be in available census records.
Walter Newton (9)'s lineage is Clarence L (8), Judson N (7), Norman (6), Cyprian (5,4), John (3,2), Immigrant Nathaniel (1). More details are available.
The only other correspondent we know of related to this line is Patti Frantz, daughter of Harold A, son of Walter Newton by his 2nd wife, Ethel Buck. Patti's email last year was <wolves352@msn.com>, cc'd above. Hope it is still good.
