Hi Lynn My Suttons are from Nottingham (lacemakers)-- George and family (wife Mary Whitaker) immigrated in about 1835. Rumor has it they spent time on the Isle of Wight. Have contacted wife's descendants in Australia (seems there was some "illegality" involving a cheese theft and a life-sentence??).... most if not all of my Suttons did NOT immigrate, so I too am not finding much of interest in the US lines.
