During the life time of his cousin John he went by the name of John Newhall, jr., or, more commonly, John the son of Anthony Newhall. As early as 1696 he had attained to the military rank of ensign. … his own death is recorded thus :—'John Newhall the father of John Newhall quartus,' died 6th Jan'y, 1725-6. His estate does not appear in probate, but on the 27th of March, 1720, he made a deed of gift to his grandson John Newhall, of Lynn, weaver, he 'haveing lived long with me and done much for me in my age & weakness and in consideration that my sd Grandson pay to my Children & other Grandchildren the severall Legacies or Gifts as hereafter sett forth viz: To my son Nathaniel Newhall Twelve pounds' &c. … 'To Timothy Breed & Joseph Breed each of them Ten shillings to be paid within one year after my decease having given considerable to their mother in her life time.

In this deed he is called John Newhall, Senr, carpenter. On the same day in which the above deed was recorded (10 Jan'y, 1725), there was entered for record another deed from him to his son John, made 5 June, 1705.
