Tutt DNA testing

texantwo — 2008-10-25 13:05:29Z

I invite any Tutt males who are considering DNA testing for genealogy purposes to go ahead and do it. Here is why. I recently took the Ancestry.com Y-46 DNA test along with another Tutt male. Forty years of thorough, well documented paper research show that we are fourth cousins and that our most recent common ancestor (six generations back) is a James Tutt of Virginia and South Carolina. However, we were stunned when the AncestryDNA results showed that we are not related at all. We are in the same haplogroup (R1b), but match on only 28 of the 46 markers. The AncestryDNA project has assured me that the testing results are accurate and that there was no mixup. Accepting that assurance, we have some serious, and potentially costly, research ahead of us to resolve the matter. It would be helpful to have comparative DNA test results from other Tutt males who know or believe they descend from this Tutt line:

Richard Tutt (parents unknown)(m. Mary Underwood ca. 1703) sons, Richard, William James, Joseph, Benjamin

James Tutt (m. Anne Hansford ca. 1737) sons, Benjamin, James, Richard, Lewis, Gabriel, Hansford

Benjamin Tutt (m. Barbara Stalnaker ca. 1760), sons James, Gabriel, Richard, Benjamin

James Tutt (m2. Mrs. Lucy Wolecon/Wallicon, widow of Daniel, Jr. ca. 1788) sons, Richard, Gabriel H., James B., Clement C.

I descend from James Tutt’s son, Clement C. Tutt, and the other Tutt male who tested descends from James’ son, Richard. I will be glad to discuss this matter and exchange Tutt genealogy info with anyone who is interested.

Richard Tutt, Bourbon Co., KY, 1797 - 1813

texantwo — 2008-08-10 00:59:23Z

Does anyone know the origins of the Richard Tutt who is on the 1810 Bourbon Co., KY, census? He was age 45+ at that census, suggesting birth in 1765 or earlier. He lived in Bourbon Co. at least from 1797 through 1813, as he is on the County tax rolls for those years. It is easy to assume that he came from the Virginia Tutt family whose progenitor was Richard Tutt (m. Mary Underwood). A number of those folks move to KY, or passed through KY on their way west. However, with all the info I have on the various branches of the VA Tutts, I cannot make a connection to the Richard Tutt in Bourbon Co.

This Richard Tutt of Bourbon Co. left a will that was written July 2, 1813 in Bourbon Co., KY, but was proven in Bracken Co., KY, on June 1, 1818. In the will, he left property for the benefit of Abel and Mary Stewart and their four children. Mary’s maiden name was Tutt, but the will does not state her relationship to Richard. Was she a daughter, sister, cousin??? The will also leaves something to the family of a Thomas Tutt, without identifying the relationship. Finally, the will also left a legacy for a William Ballenger, who must have been a very good friend.

I will appreciate any new or specific info concerning this Richard Tutt.

Re: Will of James Tutt m. Ann Minor

lindatutt — 2008-06-23 00:05:18Z

Hi Gary,

I wrote to you a while back in my search to find my ancestor, James Tutt, father of my great-great grandfather, Edwin E. Tutt. At the time I thought this James might be related to John Tutt. He is, but not the way I thought at that time.

I was interested in your post about the will of James Tutt who married Anne Minor, as I recently found some misplaced documents from Culpeper County that I think finally proves who my ancestor was, and it relates to one of your questions about the will of James Tutt.

The first is a property deed dated 25 November 1808, between James Tutt of Spotsylvania County and James Tutt, son of the said James Tutt of Spotsylvania County. The deed confers a parcel of land in Culpeper County from the father James to the son James. Pertinent to this deed was the following:

...unto the said James Tutt his heirs and assigns one half of the tract of land in Culpeper County now in possession of said James Tutt containing four hundred and fifty one acres by a state survey and bounded as followeth beginning at the road leading from Stone House Mountain to Thorntons Gap and running with the patents line N171/4 E212 pole to the Red Oaks and two Box Oaks corner to the dividing line between the brothers Charles M. Tutt and James Tutt thence ...

(This property also bordered the land of Capt. John Tutt}. This deed was witnessed by Charles M. Tutt and Benjamin Colvin.

Then later, in a property deed dated 21 March 1821, James Tutt and his wife Lucy were securing a loan from William Smith to pay off a debt to a Richard Norris. All of these individuals were residents of Culpeper County at the time. James and Lucy were using their property, household goods and farm animals to secure the note. None of this is terribly important except for these two things. The first is the clerk of courts at that time had a tendency to write his capital Js to look as if they were capital Is, which made the document kind of hard to read, and I noticed how similar to capital Is his Js were throughout the document. When I read your post about the will of James Tutt and you asked who Richard I Tutt was, I wondered if he could have actually been Richard J Tutt, as in Richard Johnson Tutt. I don't know if you actually saw the deed or if it was just a transcript someone had made and the transcriber assumed the J was an I.

The second point is a paragraph of the property deed signed by James and Lucinda in 1821, in the case of this deed, Lucinda was Lucy. Here is the pertinent paragraph:

...a certain parcel of land lying in the County aforesaid (Culpeper) and is the same tract whereon the said James Tutt at present resides and is part of the same tract which he inherited by the will of his father James Tutt deceased is bounded by Charles M. Tutts land on the North John Tutts on the East...

Thus I believe my James Tutt is actually the son of James Tutt and Anne Minor. Further evidence of this was the genealogy report that I mentioned when I wrote to you previously about the Martin Myers family that stated that Edwin E. Tutt, son of James Tutt and Lucinda Colvin, married Elizabeth Ann Myers in Taylor County, VA in 1850. In the 1850 census of Taylor County, VA James Tutt, farmer, is listed as 70 years of age. This corresponds to the date of birth of James and Anne Minor Tutt's son James, who was born about 1781 in Spotsylvania Co. Also listed on that census was James' wife, Lucinda, age 53; Jane, age 35; Elizabeth, age 16; Matilda, age 14 and Mariah, age 9. On the 1860 census of Taylor County, only Lucinda, age 64, is listed with Matilda, then age 22. On the 1870 census of Taylor County, Lucinda, age 73, was living in the household of John W. Hamilton and his wife, Caroline. Caroline was age 33 at that time. Lucinda was also living with John and Caroline Hamilton on the 1880 census of Taylor County, WV, and was related to John as his mother-in-law. Caroline Tutt Hamilton died in Taylor County on 24 August 1919 at the age of 83 years, 3 months and 24 days. I am not sure of the identity of Jane, Matilda, Elizabeth and Mariah, but Caroline was the sister of Edwin E. Tutt.

In the Myers genealogy it stated that James Tutt had been married prior to his marriage to Lucinda, and had children by that marriage. I believe this James Tutt had been previously married to Elizabeth Royston on 14 September 1804.

Finally, Benjamin Colvin, who witnessed the above-mentioned deed as well as the will of the senior James Tutt (I have other documents that link James with Benjamin Colvin as well) was the father of Lucinda Colvin, who married James Tutt on 23 January 1816. Lucinda was 22 years younger than James, and their children were obviously considerably younger than James' children with Elizabeth Royston.

Also, James Tutt and Lucinda seemed to sell off most of their property in Culpeper County in 1823 and 1824, probably before they removed to Taylor County. I have had these documents for nearly ten years, but they were in a file that I had misplaced until this week. But I think I have finally found my ancestors.

Just wanted to offer this information as a followup to your query on the will of James Tutt.

Cordelia Tutt, 1870 KY

texantwo — 2008-01-23 03:40:09Z

Looking for any info on Cordelia Tutt born ca. 1807 in Virginia, per 1870 census. In that census she is living in Harrodsburg, Mercer Co., KY.

Cannot clearly find her in other censuses. For example, in 1860, there was a 50 year old Cordelia Tutt, b, ca 1810 in KY, living with the family of a Thomas S. Broughton. Censuses are not always exact, so this could possibly be her.

I am trying to prove or disprove whether Cordelia Tutt was the mother of William H. Tutt whose household, also in 1870 Mercer Co., KY, was as follows:

1870 Census, Pct 7, Mercer Co., KY
Wm. H. Tutt, 38, Carpenter, KY
Mary Tutt, 28, Keeps House, KY
Cordelia, 11, At School, KY
John, 9, KY
Robert, 6, KY
Harriett, 4, KY
Wm. H. Tutt, Jr., 2, KY

Origin of Richard Tutt, m. Mary Underwood

texantwo — 2007-03-18 23:19:37Z

This Richard Tutt is my 7G Grandfather. I hope this post will stimulate some research effort to try and find where he came from and who his parents were. Other than some deeds and other similar records, this is all I know about Richard. Researchers have been looking for proof of his origins for more than 150 years with no success.

KEY NAMES: Richard Tutt, Ann Bowden alias Harris/Ann Butler, George Bowden alias Harris, Ann Lancelott, Ann Butler nee Lancelott – the eight events listed below variously involve these people and they occurred In Westmoreland Co., Virginia, unless otherwise stated.

KEY EVENTS:
March 28, 1688 – The earliest mention I have found of George Bowden alias Harris in Virginia records. It involves the resolution of the determination of a servant’s age.

1697/98 – Death of Ann Lancelott, first wife of Thomas Butler III, according to family researchers.

January 31, 1700 – Will of George Bowden alias Harris proven in court and Ann his relict was appointed Executrix.

June 24, 1700 – The earliest mention I have found of Richard Tutt in Virginia records. On this date, his Aunt, Ann Bowden alias Harris, gifted him an unspecified amount of land.

August 28, 1700 – By virtue of a letter of attorney from Ann Bowden alias Harris, William Underwood acknowledged a deed of gift of lands to Richard Tutt.

March 5, 1701 – In the Richmond County Court, VA, an action was brought by Anne Harris, Exx. of George Bowden, against: Jno. Browne.

May 28, 1701 – Richard Tutt was one of several men “…summoned to bee Grand inquisitors for our Soveraigne Lord the King, sworn and charged…”

May 26, 1703 – Richard Tutt sold the earlier gifted land to a Thomas Butler and the transaction shows that (1) by this date he was married to Mary Underwood and (2) by this date, his Aunt formerly known as Ann Bowden alias Harris was know as Mrs. Ann Butler, indicating that she had remarried.

DISCUSSION: Nobody knows with certainty where Richard Tutt (m. Mary Underwood) came from or who his parents were. One researcher who contacted me by email 3 or 4 years ago, claimed to have information that Richard’s father was named Benjamin, but the man never sent me any promised copies of his materials and I lost his email address in my transition between internet providers.

Some researchers say the family was French Huguenot and that the family name originally was Tout or LaTout, which they changed to Tutt. Other researchers say Richard Tutt was English. No conclusive, verifiable proof has been presented for either theory. However, The Huguenot Society of Manakin Virginia, includes Richard Tutt’s family lineage among those it has registered as Huguenot. I requested copies of the submitted applications and the proof of a Huguenot connection, but materials I received from them suggest that the Huguenot connection is based on family tradition. Following are examples of the divergent positions on the Tutt origins.

(1) One book authored by the old Genealogist, Augusta Fothergill (1876-1965) was titled, “The Tutt Family of Virginia”. In that work, she wrote: (this the support used by applicants to the Huguenot Society of Manakin)

“Tradition among the members of this family who still survive is that the family now known as Tutt was formerly known as LaTout, but the name has invariably appeared in Virginia as Tutt so the change was evidently made at some time before they left England where many of the French changed their names to the English equivalent.” This statement appears to be based on oral testimony and Ms. Fothergill did not cite any hard documentation to support the Huguenot connection.

(2) According to another Tutt researcher, Louis Carstarphen: (second hand quote from his letter to another researcher)

“The first Tutts in this country and the man from whom all of that name are descended so far as I know was Richard Tutt who m. Mary Underwood and died in King George Co., VA where his will was probated in 1728. The book in which his will was recorded was “liberated” by a Yankee soldier and so is lost. While Richard Tutt probably came from England (there were other Tutts there) there is a tradition in the family that the Tutts were French Huguenots and that their name was originally LaTout.” (Note: All Tutts did not descend from this Richard Tutt and wife Mary. There are other Tutt lines. Mr. Carstarphen may have gotten his information from Ms. Fothergill’s work.)

(3) The following is reportedly from a letter written by Mrs. Julian Mims in the early 1920s wherein she discussed the Tutt family. “We are of Huguenot descent and the name was originally La Tout, our ancestor having come to America in the 17th century. One branch of the family came from France via Holland and another via England. The Eng. branch brought with them a Bible that contained family records of value. Great Uncle Andrew got the Bible and his descendants still have it.” ( Note: I haven’t yet determined the identity of “Uncle Andrew”.)

(4) Another publication, “The Tutt Family of Virginia, Philadelphia, and Colorado Springs”, preface by Richard Thayer Tutt III, states:

“Extensive research has been made on the first Richard Tutt. It is certain and independently confirmed that he is related to the Wiltshire and Hampshire Tutts in England. However, no date of his arrival in Virginia has been discovered. It is apparently obvious that he wanted to take part in the development of this new land. It is well known that early settlers who came to Virginia came for economic reasons and not religious….This Tutt family through tradition has a pure English heritage.” As with Ms. Fothergill, there is no hard documentation to support the English heritage.

(5) Charles Wickliffe Throckmorton, in his “Genealogical and Historical Account of the Throckmorton Family in England”, makes an “excursus” to detail the family of our Richard Tutt. On p. 373 of his work, Throckmorton says:

“I have been unable to connect Richard Tutt with the Tutt family in England; it is, however, more than probable that he belonged to the family the Tutt of Idminister, Wiltshire. Alexander Tutt of Idminister, son of Sir Alexander of that place, married Anne, daughter of Richard Swayne of Blandford County, Dorset, and had issue (Visitation of Wiltshire 1623, published by G. W. Marshall, p. 95):

“1. John, son and Heir, aet. 13, 1623. [aet = about the age of]
2. Richard, 2nd son, aet. 11.
3. Alexander, 3rd son.
4. Jane, aet. 12.
5. Anne, aet. 10.
6. Mary, aet. 7.
7. Elizabeth aet. 4.
8. Millicent, aet. 2.

“Richard being the second son, may have emigrated to Virginia and was possibly the father of Richard, Tutt who died in King George County in 1728. The arms of the Tutt family of Wiltshire were quarterly argent and gules, in the first quarter a crescent of the second.” (Note: Marshall’s “Visitation”, p. 95, shows that Alexander Tutt of Idminister (m. Anne Swayne) also had a brother named Richard.)

Notwithstanding all the above, our Richard Tutt's Aunt, Ann Bowden alias Harris/Ann Butler, may be the key to determining his origin, but we need to determine the basis for the “Aunt” relationship. Was she the sister of one of Richard Tutt’s parents? Was she his Aunt by marriage? Did the title of “Aunt” have other meanings in those times?

Aunt Ann’s apparent first husband was a man variously named in Virginia county records as George Bowden alias Harris, George Bowdon alias Harris and George Harris alias Bowden, and other variations. The specific reason for his name styling is unknown. However, an internet search disclosed the following explanations for the use of two surnames, joined by the word "alias" in early American records. It usually indicated an illegitimate birth and that the person joined the surname of his reputed father to that of his mother. However, there were other reasons for the adoption of two surnames. Sometimes when children inherited through their mother, they used both the father's and the mother's names. Sometimes the name of the natural father, who had died, was joined to that of a stepfather. In case of adoption, the original name and the name of the adoptive parent were sometimes used together.

“Westmoreland County, Virginia, Order Book 1698-1705, Part Two, 1700-1701”, abstracted and compiled by John Frederick Dorman, shows the info above about George Bowden alias Harris’ will being proven and his widow, Ann, being appointed Executrix. I wrote to Westmoreland County citing that info and requesting a copy of the will, with the hope that it might shed some light on things. In response, the County sent me a copy of the page out of the Order Book showing the above info which I already had. The copy was accompanied by a form letter that gave no further explanation. In my follow-up request, I again asked for a copy of the will or a clear statement that the will is not in the county records. The reply to my follow-up was as follows: “Mr. Tutt, I am sorry for the confusion. There is no will indexed in Westmoreland County for George Bowden/Bowdon/Border alias Harris. Neither is it listed in Torrence’s Virginia Wills & Inventories. I cannot explain this….” So, there still is some uncertainty in my mind as to whether or not the will is there.

At some unknown time between 5 Mar 1701 and 26 May 1703, the widow, Ann Bowden alias Harris, apparently married a man named Butler. There was a Thomas Butler III in Westmoreland Co., VA, who was married first to Ann Lancelott. Some Butler/Lancelott researchers report that Ann Lancelott died ca. 1697-98 and they believe that Thomas Butler III married second, Ann Bowden alias Harris. The will of Thomas Butler III was dated 22 May 1714 and proven on 25 August 1714. The will suggests that Thomas Butler did not have a living wife at the time of the will. Finally, The Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy, by Frederick A. Virkus, states at p. 539, that “…Thomas [Butler III] (d. 1714), m. 2-Anne Borden (aunt of Richard Tutt, of Richmond Co., Va….”

Some researchers believe that Ann Bowden alias Harris married a Tobias Butler, but Westmoreland County records show that Ann, the relict of Tobias Butler, married a Charles Smith before 1 Dec 1698. Charles Smith's will was dated 16 February 1709 and proven 9 June 1714. Therefore, it seems unlikely that Ann Bowden alias Harris was ever married to Tobias Butler.

SOME EARLY TUTTS IN COLONIAL AMERICA

The Wiltshire Emigration Database shows the following:
-Richard Tutt from Wilton in Wiltshire Emigrated or was Transported to Virginia America in 1688. His age was 18, single, and occupation, Ag. Lab.
-Richard Tutt from Semley in Wiltshire, born 1649 occupation Shepherd, Emigrated to ?Virginia America 1688
-Richard Tutt from Rowde in Wiltshire, born 1657, occupation Ag. Labourer, emigrated on the 14th April 1679.
(Note: These men likely are not our Richard, but a primary rule of genealogy is to check out all leads.)

I am also trying to locate some information on my family. I was wondering if you were related to a woman by the name of Loretta/Lou Mccraney? (maiden name)

Tina, I would love to know if you were adopted at an early age? I am trying to locate a half sister. Was your mother's name Loretta?

Presently, I know of no connection to your Tutt family. My direct Tutt line has been in the U.S. since at least the year 1700. The oldest ancestor in the line is a Richard Tutt in VA. Nobody has been able to identify his parents or where he came from, but it is very possible that he came from England. I am glad the info was useful.

Thank you, Gary the information you sent me was most helpful and they are the tutts that are my relations. Are they any way linked to your family?

Tutt/Clore

Looking to see if anyone has information on a Susan Tutt (unknown Birth and Death) from Oak Park, VA. She married Lewis (Louis) Clore (unknown as well) from Oak Park, VA. They had at least 1 child that is known, Ethel Helen Clore (approx B: 1877 - D: 1941) married Silas (Cyrus) M. Wilhoite.
I know it is very sketchy at best but anyone who knows these names and can at least tell me where to go that would be great! Thank you.
