Hello Dick, Also, there is a Milton Wagy who is also a very close cousin of mine, but he has not yet made his connections known to us as he is a very busy librarian, (Hi Milt!) but he did report to me, >>> "The last Dutton was Francis R. Dutton b. 1801. I am descended through his daughter Hannah Isabel Dutton." >>> This b. 1801 would make Francis R #125 in Cope. Hanna would be #268. She married Francis Peverly and removed to Iowa in 1863. There must be a generation between Milt and Hanna because the last names are not the same? Finally, to catch you all up to speed, I am in communication with Ernest Hatton. We are both very excited about our connections and trying to get the lines straight. He has recently returned from a visit to England and has promised to send me (and others in his family), around Christmas, a collection of info and photos from his trip. He was allowed to take photos of Christopher Hatton's tomb and took pictures of a statue of Lord Christopher in full armor on his steed at Windsor Castle. I would like to put the pictures on my home page so that all can see. I can hardly wait, but I do feel like I am scattered in too many directions. You can see the "impaled" Dutton/Hatton armour at: http://genealogy.dutton.net/genphoto/dutton%20manor6.htm . It is on the right side of page. Carole
