JM, I do not know anything abt descendants of Ann Lewis Sutton. Ann was born 1832 in VA. She was 18 on the 1850 census, that is where I deducted the birth yr of 1832. We all know tho' that the dates on the census are not always correct.......She was the dau of John Carter Sutton and his second wife, Elizabeth Page Pendleton. I have no idea when she died or where...... Do you know where your Anna L. Sutton married? Who did she marry? and where? It could be the same Ann but I'm not sure......you said that she died young, how young? Where? The earliest Sutton in this Ann Lewis Sutton's family is John Sutton born 1688 in VA. Do you think this could be your Ann? Marsha Thank you so much for responding to my query. Genealogy folks are just so much fun -- and so nice to share information!! The below could be Anna's parents, except that Anna was born 1830 and it looks like this Norborne Sutton was born 1822 -- unless I'm reading this incorrectly, which is entirely possible. Maybe Ann was Ann Elizabeth and they called her Betty as a nickname? We always were told Anna was born in Virginia. Do you know any other information about them -- like their profession, etc.? Who was the first Sutton in Anna's direct anecestry to come to America? Are there any published (self-published or otherwise) books, booklets on this family line that I could acquire? Yeah, I'm full of questions and want to know more, more, more about this line of my family. It is pretty much a blank for us. My other family lines are all traced back to the "home" country and I'd love to do that with the Sutton line. I'm just sorry that Anna died so young so that our Sutton acquaintance was brief. (I think my grandmother said that her father said he never knew any of his mother's people.) I really would like to find out about her siblings' descendants. Do you have that info? I'm glad that we know where she is buried because she is so far (for that time period) from her family. If I go to Lauderale Co., would I be able to find much information about the Suttons there? If so, would that be at the library, a museum, or maybe a genealogy room? What other counties or towns or communities are important to this Sutton history? You just don't know how excited I am about this information! Again, thank you so much, Marsha. If you still live around the area, I'd love to meet you and visit with you. Last month, I had three cousins I had never met in my Peacock line as houseguests so we could do genealogy and go through old pictures. We spent three days going back into the woods to churches, old family cemeteries, house sites, etc. It was great!! I don't want to bother you too much with this and all my questions, but I truly, truly appreciate your help. Thank you again and I hope that we keep in touch. jm
