I had run across the 1850 census with John Sutton with a son William. The 1850 census says he is 14 yrs. at the time. The 1860 census states my William as 23 years. There is a one year difference. Granted the censuses could have been taken at different times of the year which could explain the age discrepancy. But I need more hard proof to show without a doubt John is William's father. If you happen to run across anything in your research, I would be happy to hear about it. If I run across anything about Samuel, I will let you know as well. Sincerely, Angela (Sutton) Tielking
