Update as of October 28, 2013. I discovered a website, Sons and Daughters of Newbury. Information is given as well as a list of the Heads of Families Who Settled in Newbury Previous to 1700, which is different from the above list on the monument.
Monument front and back.

The above photo was taken in the summer of 2013. In late October I drove by and discovered all the shrubs had been removed.


 NOTE: These photos were taken in December 2015. Apparently the shrubs were removed, and I kind of think the wires above were too.
