I'm trying to put pieces of the puzzle together on trying to figure out who my great-grandmother, Susan Sutton is. A Susan Sutton was married to my great-grandfather, William J. Harris. From what I have gathered from reading other information, this Susan was born ~Oct. 1855 in TN. My great grandfather, William J. Harris was also born around 1853-54. They married 18 Jun 1883 in Jackson County, IL They had I believe, 8 children together: Minnie, Philip, Mabel, Ethel, Pearl, Earl, Ray, and Teddie. Earl is my grandfather. I am wondering if anyone has info in regards to the Susan Sutton who was the daughter of Edmund Sutton and Lucy (Harris) Sutton. Here is why I'm wondering if it is possibly the same Susan: There is a Susan that is listed in this paragraph from this website: http://sutton.org/issue19/macon.htm *"Now back to the children of the second marriage of the old Revolutionary soldier: Edmund, born in 1793, died in 1861, married Lucy Harris. Their children were: John Sutton, who went to Illinois; Susan and Jane, about whom nothing else is known."* Why I think there might be a possible connection and perhaps the same Susan, is because: 1. It is mentioned that John Sutton went to Illinois. 2. From this Jackson County Illinois site http://www.iltrails.org/Jackson/ if you look under the "Wills Online" and then the "Jackson County Probate Index" http://www.iltrails.org/Jackson/prodex.htm and search the "S" records for *Sutton http://www.iltrails.org/Jackson/pro39.htm* you will find listed: *Sutton, George L. John H. Sutton 60 2252 Nov 19, 1908 * So a John H. Sutton, was the administrator of the estate of George L. Sutton. So is this John H. Sutton possibly the same John Sutton from TN (son of Edmund) who went to IL? It is just so coincidental that this name falls into the Jackson County IL area....the same area my great grandma, Susan Sutton, married my great grandpa at, and John happens to have a sister Susan who there was no information on. Also, through Edmund Sutton had a half-brother named George (which would have been the uncle to John). Is it possible that this is the same line of Sutton's since the names for all are so similar?
