Hi All, I am researching the HUTTON surname and I know that my family left Benton County, Arkansas between the 1880 and the 1900 census. My great grand father was William N. Hutton married to Sarah Ellen Londigan. (Previously married to Cordelia Shouse, I believe). I have them listed in Benton County, Arkansas in the 1880 census and then again in the Pierce County Washington census in 1900. Their eldest son, William Albert was supposed to have been born in Indian Territory in Feb. 1887 and their next child was born in Pierce County, Washington in 1889. So, they probably weren't in Indian Territory too long. I have heard of Huttonville in McIntosh County, OK so thought I would post here to see if anyone can help. Parents of William N. Hutton were Meredith Hutton and Naomi Osborn. I also cannot find any cemetery records for Meredith or Naomi. So, am wondering if they also went to Indian Territory. I have my Huttons back to Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Oklahoma and finally t! o Washington. Due to moving to a smaller place, reformatting my hard drive and also upgrading to a newer version of my FamilyTreeMaker Program, I have little information available at the moment. However, I do have more names, dates, locations, etc.........if need be. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance, David Hutton Tacoma, Washington davidehutton@comcast.net

In short history of sheriff Erv Kelley one of the old time peace officers of McIntosh County it mentions that he apprehended some bank robbers for robbing the Hitchita Bank in 1927. The men caught were Otheo Key, Roy Nicholson and a man named Kimbro. I am interested in the man named Kimbro. Does anyone have any more information or know where to go and get more information on the man named Kimbro? He may be a relative. Jim Gillespie Fresno California US Genweb Volunteer
