Phyllis and Susie, Is the newsletter the website or...? Since I am new to this happy, inquisitive group, I need to know the scoop. Who is Baron Sherbourne? Eldorado? This young 16-year-old? Exciting news, but is there more?

His parents were: Thomas Absalom Dutton b:June 28, 1846, Bullock Co.,GA. mar: Eugenia N. Foy Thomas d: August 30, 1875 Thomas served in the CSA, 54th GA.Infantry, Co.I The above are all buried in Elam Baptist Cemetery, Egypt, Effingham Co.,GA. Thomas and Eugenia were married in Bullock Co., GA. His parents were: Samuel Dutton & Sarah Hagin. Their names appear on the Bullock Co., Census of 1850. It shows Samuel as age 29 & Sarah as age 31. Thomas, age 3 Sarah, age 2. There is also on the 1850 census Henry Dutton age 61 married to Ann (Cock)? age 49. It states Henry was from Mass. and a carpenter by trade. That age he would have been born in 1789. It also lists the following children: Joseph, 24 Andrew, 21 William, 19 Mary, 15 John Welsey, 13 Overton, 10 Martha, 7 Since Samuel was 29, I am wondering if he was his older son. Interested in knowing Henry Duttons birthplace and any information about him in Mass. and when he came to Bullock Co. Hoping someone can help me with these names and places. Thanks, Jackie in California

1850 Illinois Census, Will County (near Cook, Chicago), Crete Township, page 163, dwg 25, 18 Sept 1850. John Dutton age 55 farmer, real estate 500, Sarah 52, Silas 10--all born New York. 1860 Illinois Census, Will County, Town of Monee, post office Monee, page 223/453, dwg 1692, fam. 1605. John Dutton age 67 farmer, real estate 1000, Sarah 61, both born New York. In addition to John Dutton of Will county, see also Abbott S. Dutton age 32, Charles Dutton age 23, and Orson B. Dutton age 26, all with families. While the ages or other data do not quite match, there are a number of Iowa families who could be related. See also in Iowa, 1860 Census Buchanan County, Abbott E. Dutton age 45 born New York; 1870 Dallas Co. Abbott Dutton age 53 Merchant born New York; 1860 Iowa, Deleware Co., O. B. Dutton age 35 Merchant born New York and Josiah age 69 born New York. 1850 Census Illinois, Will County, Crete Township, page 163, dwelling 29, 18 Sept 1850. Abbott S. Dutton age 32 farmer born New York; Jane age 29 born Vermont; Gatnella age 7, Oliver age 2, and John E. age 1/12--all children b. Illinois and in school. 1850 Census Illinois, Will County, Crete Township, page 167, dwelling 77, 18 Sept 1850. Charles Dutton age 23 farmer, Mary 22 both b. NY; Laura A. age 10/12 born Illinois. 1850 Census Illinois, Will County, Carey Township, page 172b, dwelling 25, 20 Sept 1850. Orson B. Dutton age 26 farmer, Lydia A. age 25, Martha L. age 4, all born New York. The latter three seemed to have disappeared from the 1860 Illinois Census, or their names are not easily matched. I am seeking Melvin Duttons for my collection of about 30 Melvin Duttons.

Hello Cousin! We are cousins, sharing a great-great grandfather, Jonathan Dutton (the younger)! Here is my descent from Jonathan: 1. Jonathan DUTTON and Rachel PENNELL 2. Nathan DUTTON and Sidney LARKIN (Nathan being the oldest brother of William Henry) (Nathan was killed by lightning at Village Green, PA in 1858. His mother, our shared great great grandmother, died the next day from the emotional shock of her eldest son's death.) 3. Frank DUTTON and Matha Caroline BEESON (Frank was not yet born when his father died. His mother died when he was 7 years old and then "Uncle Henry", your great-grandfather raised Frank.) 4. Louisa Belle DUTTON and Lloyd Norris HALL 5. Wallace Dutton HALL and Alice Neely ZABEL 6. Douglas Edmund HALL (me) My father and grandparents are buried in the Mt. Hope cemetery. I grew up in Lower Merion Township in Montgomery County but visited Dutton relatives in Chester and Ridley Park area thoughout the 1950s. I have pretty complete descent information for you down to William Henry Dutton (your grandfather). If you would like, I can send you an RTF file of ancestry information that I have in my Family Tree Maker software.

Thanks to Dick and the rest of you cousins close and distant for the information I recieved on Harry A. Dutton my ggrand father. I got caught up in a mail count as I am a rural mail carrier and local union steward. I have not had time to study the list e-mail very much but hope to have time to now and get on with my research on the Dutton line. Thanks very much and I hope I can contribute as time goes.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I say anybody willing to share everything this young man says he has access to makes him a 'DUTTON' for sure. Carole and Colin, Thank you so much for sharing your information. I'm hanging on every word. Brenda Bremerton, WA

Hi Colin, Sounds like we may have hit the jackpot!!! Please, please take your camera with tons of film with you. I can help cover film costs. See if he has Odard's sword!! Are you still on the List? If not, resubscribe and post your findings to all of us at the same time. I sent parts of your message from yesterday and am sending your message today. I'm getting excited NOW! Also, I have been redocumenting the PA John line and have primary sources from Hugh Dutton IX down to Hugh Dutton of Hatton. And from PA John back to Hugh Dutton of Woodhouses. There is a big undocumented emptiness of 5 generations between these two lines (see Lawson's chart). I hope that he can help for these 5 generations (but probably not--but maybe!!) I just wonder what all he has!!

Hello all: Well, here all the Dutton descendants are waiting with bated breath for the next installment of this exciting adventure. Many thanks to everyone for sharing their histories and being willing to help. A Dutton descendant way back there, in fact, running back through Piers Dutton. Now, someone fill me in on a little of the National Trust. I caught a little off-flavor there.

Hi Phyllis, I trust that you have now received Tony's email saying that there is no Baron Sherborne--that the line is extinct. Short-lived excitement! Oh Well!

The Sherborne branch of the family are refered to in the 'Duttons of Dutton', this you already knew. So, I telephoned the number and chatted to a lady for some five or ten minutes and she confirmed that the message was quite correct and that her son (who was at work) has been trying to contact any Duttons. He is in fact a Dutton heir albeit but is called Byron Hadleigh and he has got a wealth of information, books, photographs etc, which he gained from his Grandmother (who is in her 90's). I will call him later and e-mail you with the results. Regards to you Colin p.s. you can flash this out on the rootsweb if you like.>>> Hmmmm. Now, I wonder what we might learn from Byron Hadleigh!!?? Carole

Having been at Sherborne House in Sherborne as recently as two weeks ago, I can confirm that there still is no Baron Sherborne and that the line is officially extinct. However, Lodge Park in Sherborne, the former hunting lodge of the last Earl Sherborne, has just been opened by the National Trust as a memorial to the family and as an example of 18th century architecture. It is still being furnished, and the Trust is holding many family artifacts until HVAC is completed and it is safe to put them in the lodge. The Deacon of the church that is attached to Sherborne House told me that a young man showed up several months ago claiming to be a Dutton heir and sporting some sort of ring that he said proved it, but the Deacon said that he was skeptical. When the last Earl Sherborne died in the mid-80s an extensive search was made to find a close heir (he had no children, and his only sibling, Juliet, never married.). regards, Tony Dutton Boca Raton, FL >>> Carole Dutton Malisiak <malisiak@midohio.net> 10/12/99 06:07PM >>> Hello all, Yesterday, someone left this tantalizing message in my guestbook on my home page.

Hi to all the cousins and potential cousins and even the wannabe cousins. Since the subject of MA John is coming up again, I thought I should toss in the ring what little I do know. It might help save a bit of useless work on someone's part. I am as eager as anyone to find out ANYTHING factual on MA John but there sure are a bunch of (false?) rumors being passed around, some of them, apparently, for a couple of hundred years, or so. We do know that a MR. DUTTON was listed in the margin of Gov. Winthrup's 1630 log book. And we do know that a John DUTTON was listed a couple of times in the 1630s court records of MA. And that's about all we can prove - at least that I'm aware of. Below you will notice that John supposedly came in 1630 aboard the ship "Comet" with Gov. Winthrup. We can also prove that Gov. Winthrup did bring a fleet to MA in 1630. However, you all may be interested in knowing I have published, printed "evidence?" that John came to this country aboard each of the following ships: "LION", and/or "COMET", and/or "ANNE" - take your choice. If you will go to: http://members.aol.com/dcurtin1/gene/winthrop.htm you will notice that Gov. Winthrup's 1630 fleet consisted of 11 vessels - none of which were the LION or COMET or ANNE. So much for that "evidence?"

Good Morning Beth, Yes, all of your data agrees with mine with the possible exception of Joseph's birth place - we can quibble over that. The CT connection is definitely correct (see Misc. notes below for Joseph). The maiden name of Joseph's first wife (and my 6G Grandmother) was Rebecca MERRIAM daughter of William & Elizabeth (BREED) MERRIAM. When he married her, she was the widow of Samuel FITCH. Probably the most frequently used method by genealogists to denote this situation is to give her name at that time as Rebecca (MERRIAM) FITCH. Note the use of upper case letters which is reserved for surnames. Given names (First & middle & 3rd & 4th & nick [pet] names etc.) should never be in all caps, and I would suggest that when indicating genealogy data that surnames should always be in all caps. It eliminates a lot of confusion. Dick ============================================== Genpia@aol.com wrote: > Hi Dick, do you have the following information about Joseph?

-----Original Message----- Subject: Duttons in MA & GA Thank you so very much for your response. I plan next week to visit the LDS history center here in Placerville. Also now that I have some counties in MA to check into it is a good lead. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From areduton@coffey.com I have another reference regard WILLIAM H. DUTTON FAMILY, written by William H. Dutton, Jr., completed by Ralph E. Davison. Book for and microfilm copy. A Ralph Davison of Des Moines, Iowa donated the book and scribbled his address on a first page. The microfilm copy was made 10-26-77. The author states that Thomas, page about 21 (after an attempt to give a history of English ancestors), he relates that John Dutton came to this country in 1630 on the ship "Comet" with Governor Winthrop. Mrs. John Dutton followed a year later . . . Thomas Dutton, son . . . among the early residents of Reading Massachusetts, Woburn, and Billerica. His wife was Mary Neeld; they had sons Thomas, Josiah, Robert, and Samuel. Since this appears to contract some Cope history, I think it might be interesting to toss it on to Dutton-L to see what will erupt. He apparently brings in the connection to William H. Dutton on page 25, or after some documents following page 25, and I do not have the those pages. The microfilm rental will probably be less than $5 and will take two or three weeks to get. The fiche are usually very cheap, but some times take forever to get, unless they have them in stock.

I am interested in the Thomas Dutton who died about 1797 and seemed to have considerable relations with a James Reed. His children, or at least Jesse, had some relationship with a Carey family from whom I am descended also. The Reeds, Careys and Duttons all lived in Sussex Co., DE., somewhere between Milton and Georgetown somewhere in the vicinity of what is now the Redden State Forest. Is this your family?
