Hi Group, I am sharing the following with you all with the permission of the author, Jon Egge and it will also be posted on his site today at: chenowethsite.com This Mary Chenoweth wife of Abraham Sutton b:3/22/1739 s/o Rev. David & Elizabeth (Cox) sutton finally has a family and is now believed to be the daughter of William and Ann Chenoweth This is the blurb that will be posted at the site: Mary: Not found in Hiatt or Harris is a marriage between Mary Chenoweth b: March 22, 1744 and Abraham Sutton in Frederick Co., VA. The names and dates come from a Bible Record of their son David, clearly delineating Mary as a Chenoweth. Abraham Sutton, a Baptist minister from a family of ministers, lived on property that adjoined Thomas(2) on Back Creek in Frederick Co. in the 1750s. Though Thomas had a daughter Mary, her birth, known by the bible of Thomas, is later and different from Abraham's wife Mary. But clearly Abraham Sutton is associated with the Virginia Chenoweths. John(2)'s daughter Mary appears to be the wife of Levi Ashbrook and, though there is no real record of this, it appears right. That would leave William(2)'s daughter Mary as the only possibly Mary that could be born this early. Almost nothing is known of William's daughters. They are names in William's will without their marriages. Moreover Cora Hiatt knew little about William's line and incorrectly gave the daughters dates that would make them very young. Greg Wulker however found the name of Mary Sutton in the estate papers of William and this seems to confirm that, indeed, the Mary Chenoweth who married Abraham Sutton was the daughter of William(2) and Ann. This would make her their first born child and fit about a year after their marriage. With the next update, this Sutton will be included in the family database. Regards, Carol Kunz in Michigan
