E., 1882, Tertiary History of the Grand Canyon District: Washington, D.C., Government Printing Office, v. 2, 264 p.; United States Geological Survey Mongraphs. DUTTON, Clarence E. Atlas to Accompany the Monograph on the Tertiary History of the Grand Cañon District. Washington, 1882. Large folio. The "most impressive published result of the great scientific expeditions to the American West after the Civil War." Dutton's report, based on his explorations of the Grand Canyon in the early 1880s, was the most extensive and important study of that region to date. It is particularly notable for the great atlas volume, consisting of twelve double-sheet maps (most of which are colored) and ten double-sheet panoramas (most tinted). Executed by lithographer Julius Bien, the atlas portrays the Grand Canyon at its most impressive, with all the panoramas on large double folio sheets (images measure 33 by 20 inches). One of the panormas, entitled "The Transept," is by Thomas Moran, the renowned landscape painter and etcher who was the first to represent adequately the scenery of the West. The rest of the panoramas were done by the great archaeologist-artist William Henry Holmes, whose illustrations for this volume are considered "masterpieces of realism and draftsmanship as well as feats of imaginative observation" (Goetzmann, Exploration and Empire, 512-13). Concerning Plate Tectonics: Clarence Dutton codified the theory of isostasy (and named it as such) in his 1889 paper "On Some of the Greater Problems of Physical Geology". -------------------- I believe Clarence E. Dutton was a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army, a captain at the time of his survey of the Grand Canyon in 1879, later a major, perhaps?

Here's a snippet from a book I'm reading- " In the winter of 1658, Captain John Dutton was selected to be the first governor of Run, a job which was to earn him a generous £200 a year salary, a further £100 in expenses, and the right to travel with his beloved wife. His orders were to take possession of of the island and 'with drum and trumpett proclaime the same,' and he was asked, en route to stop at the Atlantic island of St Helena and claim it for the (East India) Company as well " "in May 1659, this strategically placed island received its first inhabitants and a small settlement, Jamestown, was built on its northern coastline." from Nathaniel's Nutmeg by Giles Milton. The bibliography states that the story is drawn largely from original journals, diaries and letters some relating to the East India Company adventurers. Run is one of the Banda Islands/spice islands and known for its nutmegs and mace. cheers Steph

The city of Dutton in Montana was apparently set up by a General Agent for a railroad operating out of Helena, Montana. I have references to show he was a general agent rather than a freight agent. There was a Dutton Redoubt in Virginia during the Civil War, but I have lost my notes on that. Las Vegas has a Dutton park. Halbert's THE DUTTONS IN AMERICA from 1790 to 1997, published 1997 by Halbert's, 3687 Road, Bath, Ohio 44210 has a Chapter Five, "Finding Dutton Place Names in America." Pages 53-55. Alabama 5, Alaska 2, Arizona 5, Arkansas 2, California 5, Colorado 3, Connecticut 2, Deleware 1, Florida 1, Illinois 2, Indiana 1, Iowa 1, Kentucky 2, Maine 4, Massachusetts 1, Michigan 2, Minnesota 2, Missouri 1, Montana 7, 2 plus Dutton Park, New Mexico 2, New York 6, North Dakota 1, Ohio 1, Oklahoma 1, Oregon 6, Pennsylvania 4, Tennessee 1, Texas 2, Utah 2, Vermont 5, Virginia 4 (plus redoubt), Washington 2, West Virginia 1, Wyoming 7. The Mount in Utah was named for a geologist working the area, plus there was a Dutton Pass there. Some place names are for post offices, towns, ranches, streams, mills, canals, a mine in Alabama, hills, canyons and points, a Dutton Landing and island in California, summits, swamps, a still, and corners. New York has a Dutton Mountain in Essex County. Wyoming has a Dutton Creek Oil Field in Carbon County. Yes, a cave too. Now get out your maps and try to find these. What shall we offer as the grand prize? Nearly one hundred place names in thirty-five states. We need to work on those other states. Well, I am glad to be reminded to look in that book. It has some census lists up to 1910, mostly head of households I think, due to the limited data. But, that could save me some work. ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Hi Doug, A cousin in my DeVault line told me that when the Mormons went through Ohio, some of the Duttons/DeVaults went with them. If that is true, we may have some PA Duttons in Utah!

Carol, The name Pliny caught my eye. I don't know if it will help or not but I have a Dutton with Pliny as a middle name. Have never been able to figure out why he was named that. Any ideas?

Hello all! My wife and I have started planning a brief week vacation trip to Northern Arizona for late April. In lookin over the map of Arizona, I noticed a Mount Dutton (11,040 feet) across the border in southwestern Utah. So that led me to use my atlas to see if there were other places or geographic features named Dutton. I found a town of Dutton in Ontario, right on the main route between Detroit and Toronto. And I found another town of Dutton on the plains of west central Montana. We know there is the tiny village of Dutton in Cheshire, England (not in my atlas) and there is the crossroads of Duttons Mill in Aston, Chester County, PA (also not in my atlas). Does anyone know of other geographic features or towns that have the name Dutton? And after whom is Mount Dutton named? Do we have a line of Mormon Duttons that settled in southern Utah that might account for that? Doug Hall
Does anyone know of the DUTTON's of Indiana? I have a Lucy Jane Dutton b.24 Aug 1845 Pike Co., Ind She married Zachariah PALMER on 3 Sep 1859 in Douglas Co., Missouri. She is my 2ggrandmother and I would like to know more about her. I know she died 24 May 1881 in Missouri. PENNY at larryt@cyberhighway.net
I went to the address below to find land patents for my g-g-grandfather's land in OHIO and found none for him. But Hanson and several other DUTTONS did have land patents there: Daniel T., Hanson, Jotham, Joseph, Pliny, Roger, Samuel, Timothy, Warren, and William Dutton. Hanson bought of 241 acres in Washington County in five different tracts from 1835 to 1837. http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/ Carole
Hi, I buy honey that has the town listed as Dutton, Al. I live on the Ga. - Al. line, and according to my little map it is not to far from here. Bessie
I have a little info on two Hanson DUTTONs. Hanson DUTTON b. Sep 3, 1799 Loudon Co, VA d. Jun 13, 1888 Adams Twp, Washington Co, OH His children: Martha Ann (b. abt 1819), John J. (b. 1822), Margaret, Smith W. (b. 1825), Jane (b. 1827), Susan (b. 1829), Archibald (b. 1831), George Henry (b.1834), Leonard S. (b. 1836), Patterson H. (b. Sep 1838). Some of this info provided by maryk@okeechobee.com (Mary Ellen Kelchner). Another Hanson.... Hanson DUTTON b. Jun 11, 1866 Parents: William R. DUTTON & Mary Ann GEVREZ m. Ella J. d. Nov 12, 1936 buried Lower Salem Cmty, Lower Salem, Wash, OH His children: female (b. 1893, d. 1893 - both events Washington Co, OH), Madge (b. Mar 8, 1895 Washington Co OH, d. July 16, 1895 Washington Co OH). Does any of this sound familiar? Karen Davis Sowards
At present I have only one Dutton ancestor in my tree and would love to have more! Hannah A. Dutton was born June 28, 1829 and died December 8, 1918. She married James Anthony Roby March 25, 1851 in Tuscarawas County, OH. They had four children. I believe I have located her in the 1850 census right across the border in Carroll County (curses on the census taker, who saw fit to record mostly just initials rather than first names...), but if this is she, she is living with the family of Jno. W. Adair, hatter, and I would guess helping care for the 7 children under the age of 10. Maybe her sister M. married an Adair? Thanks for any help, and of course I'm willing to share info. --Anne Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

I have seen it used in that sense many, many times in various documents of the 17th to the early 19th Centuries. The Oxford English Dictionary defines husbandry as, "The business or occupation of a husbandman or farmer; tillage or cultivation of the soil including also the rearing of live stock and poultry, and sometimes extended to that of bees, silkworms, etc.; agriculture, farming." It was sometimes formerly used in a concrete form (now obsolete) to mean, "Household goods, agricultural produce, cultivated crops, land under cultivation, an agricultural holding, the body of husbandmen on an estate, the farm tenantry." Other meanings are related or would not be likely to appear in a genealogical context. Husbandryware does not appear in the OED, which means it flat out wasn't ever a "real" word. It is easy enough to deduce that it was used to mean, "implements related to husbandry" such as plows, hoes, rakes, or whatever. Darrell Darrell A. Martin formerly of the Dutton District, Springfield, Vermont currently in exile in Addison, Illinois darrellm@sprynet.com
Thanks to all for eliminating my ignorance! :-)) Carole
Hi Carole, "Husbandry" is anything to do with agriculture and farming. Hence, "husbandryware" would be anything that is used in husbandry such as farm implements and equipment. The "shop" associated with such would be anything from a black smith's smithy to a purveyor of equipment, animals and seeds. I hope this helps.
