When I was researching my ancestors from the Sutton area, I was told that I needed to search both Missisquoi and Brome because the county line was relocated resulting in Sutton switching what county it was in. Right now I can't remember what year the county line was moved. Betty (Griggs) Boroski Searching Griggs, Spencer and others in the Sutton/Sutton Township area.

I do not recall the date that the line moved, but the best approximation is to check the census records as the town and county lines moved more than once. 1825 just about everything was in "Bedford" 1831 Dunham, Stanbridge, Sutton and St. Armand were Missisquoi 1842 Dunham, Stanbridge, Sutton and St. Armand East & West were Missisquoi 1852 Dunham, Stanbridge, Sutton, Philipsburg and St. Armand East & West were Missisquoi 1861 Dunham, Stanbridge, West Farnham, Clarenceville, and St. Armand East & West were Missisquoi > -----Original Message----- > From: qc-etanglo-bounces@rootsweb.com > [mailto:qc-etanglo-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of BBor1212@aol.com > Sent: Friday, October 27, 2006 11:41 > To: qc-etanglo@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [QC-ETANGLO] Sutton location >
