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?
