I may have missed a message that relates to the message concerning Higginbotham. My ancestor William Sutton married Sarah Higginbotham. They lived in Union Parish Louisiana near Farmerville. William Sutton was the father of Joseph Sutton whose son Charlie Sutton and Charlie was my grandfather. William Sutton was the son of John Sutton and Mary Hay. John Sutton and Mary Hay were married in Wilkes County Ga. The Higginbotham family was also in that area of Ga. during that time. The father of John Sutton was William Sutton who was married to Elizabeth Jackson. William died about 1789 in Warren County NC. The father of William was Moses Sutton who apparently was married more than once, first wife uncertain but perhaps Dollie Palmer and second wife was Elizabeth Pittman and third was Caty Pittman. This Moses had sons John, James, William, Thomas and Richard. I have the ancestry on Moses as Lazarus Sutton and then Richard Sutton who died in 1702 in Northumberland Va. If anyone feels they connect to this info, I would love to compare notes. Billie Sutton Smith
