Verna, I do not have your names in my database, but I do have my ggggg-grandfather, Henry Clay Tuttle, b. 1818 in Ohio, then apparently moved to Iowa, then Indiana, and finally Taney County, MO where he died in 1901. This is recapped in a genforum posting from David Tuttle which follows. The dates and places were similar enough to yours that I thought there may be a connection. There is a gedcom of my Tuttles on my webpage at http://www.GenealogySource.com. Hope this helps. Happy Independence Day!!

Tuttle on September 01, 1998 at 21:33:25: In Reply to: Re: TUTTLES in Indiana & Ohio posted by Tom Stevenson on August 31, 1998 at 21:35:20: According to the data in Alva Tuttle's book, Henry's first family was listed in the U.S. Census of 1850 in New Madrid County, Missouri, as "Henry age 35 of Iowa, Elizabeth age 28 of Iowa, Edward age 10 of Iowa, Quincy age 5 of Missouri, Henry 4 mos. of Missouri". The U.S. Census of 1860 has them listed in Knox County, Indiana, as Henry 39 of Ohio, Edwin 16 of Iowa, John 13 of Missouri, Henry 10 of Missouri, Jacob 3 of Indiana. The U.S. Census of 1870 lists them in Taney County, Missouri, as Henry 52 of Ohio, Margaret 30 of Indiana, Jacob 13 of Indiana, and John W. Tuttle (not related) born c1846. From this we can tell that Henry's first marriage occurred 1840-43, perhaps in Iowa, to a woman named Elizabeth who was born in 1823-25. (I am guessing that the census of 1850 was actually finished around 1853, from the dates and ages reported). Their children were Edward/Edwin, John, Quincy, Henry, and Jacob. After Henry married Margaret on 11-Jan-1862 in Knox County, Indiana, they did not have any more children. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ George May wrote: > Am looking for anyone researching the name Tuttle in Fountain County, > Ind.
