The Sutton Family History

 

 

The Suttons in the Census Records

 

1782-1785 Records of the State Enumerations for VA

All Suttons in VA

*John Sutton was born in 1794 in Pulaski County according to his death record.  Pulaski County had not been formed then so this may refer to Montgomery County from which Pulaski Co. was formed.  His parents were unknown, however, which casts some doubt on the correctness of the birthplace.  In any case his parents may be one of the Suttons listed here.
