Dear John, I received a copy of your "Maiden Speech" on 13 th April with great interest. I have so far only been able to trace my ancestors back as far as a Matthew Dutton who was the father of William Dutton, born 1724; married Ann Millward on 5 September, 1747 at St. Andrew Undershaft, London; had the following children: Nancy (6 June 1748), Sarah (31 May 1750), William (19 July 1751), John (2 November 1753), Elizabeth (13 July 1755), Hepzibah (13 June 1758), Dorothy (18 February 1760), Thomas (2 March 1760), and William (21 June 1764); he was also PARTNER OF THOMAS MUDGE 76 FLEET ST., LONDON - WATCHMAKERS TO KING GEORGE III. Are we talking about the same the same man? And if so can you give me any information on his forebears? Regards, Warren Dutton Kiunga Guest House Kiunga. W.P. Papua New Guinea
