[snip] >Carole Hi, Carole: Another two cents worth from me. I have no provable connection to England through any Dutton immigrant, so the work on the oldest Dutton lines doesn't apply to me. YET. Someday, dagnabbit, I AM going to find evidence for where Thomas and/or John Dutton of Reading, Mass., came from, and when I do--why should I duplicate all the work you've done!?!?!?!? Even if I'm so stubborn as to insist on looking it all up for myself, why not at least follow the trail you have blazed? I'm not so stubborn as to be stupid, I hope! Keep this stuff coming, as far as I'm concerned, for as long as you want to. And THANKS. Darrell Darrell A.
