Their nearest neighbor was a family by the name Huff, with a large family of boys and girls. About the year 1834 Mr. Sutton married one of the daughters, who is still living, and who bore him six boys and four girls. The funeral took place at their old home, on Wednesday, Jan. 6th, at 2 o'clock, (1892) and he wa s buried near the home in their family burying ground ... " He died Jan. 5, 1892.2140
