Family:
During the 1960’s & early 70’s, Emmett & Dolores Newman and their five
sons sang to the glory of God in the Arrowhead region of Northern
Wisconsin and Northern Minnesota. They were known as The Newman
Family. Entire church services of inspirational music was their
forte’, however, their recognition also propelled them into the civic
arena. Before the death of Dolores in 1975, the family’s credits
included a 1 hour Christmas television program and an LP album.
