BIOGRAPHY:
1. Per N.C. Crewe:
William Newhook (Catalina), 1823-1902
Born at Trinity in 1823, son of William Newhook (Trinity). Died in St. John's in 1902. I affix Catalina to his name, as that is the place where he was a master shipbuilder. A grandson is Mr. William T. Newhook, of Churchill Square Apartments, St. John's.
He married Mary Ann Jeans of Catalina in 1850, and lived most of the next twenty years of his life there, where six of his nine children were born. He was both a shipbuilder and a house carpenter, and he helped build an Anglican church at Catalina.
He master-built at Catalina the banking schooners Cactus and Hyderangea for Benjamin Snelgrove, supplying merchant; I myself have seen both vessels.
He moved to St. John's to live about 1890, accompanied by his brother, Charles Newhook (bachelor). He brought with him some old family letters, written in French, which confirms the French extraction of the Newhook family. The letters were lost in the Great Fire of 1892.
No names or particulars are known to me of other vessels that William Newhook (Catalina) master-built or repaired.

http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=board&r=rw&p=surnames.axtman."Hullo! I'm trying to locate information on a May Pearce (variant spellings may include Mae and Pierce) of Newfoundland, born about 1878-1882-ish, who married Dan Axtman and moved to Boston, Mass. They had at least one son, Danny, and at least one daughter. I don't know much about Dan Axtman, Sr., though I do have a nice photo of him. May Pearce had brothers Heber and Theordore, maybe others. Her parents were George Pearce and Lucretia Anna Newhook, both of Catalina, Newfoundland, Canada. Happy to share any and all information with anyone who might know of this couple and their family in the States! Cheers! Elaine"
