Notes

Samuel Hutton had 200 acres surveyed on Sept 11/17 1783 and then on Sept 22 conveyed all his rights to the land to James Gordon. This land was “about two miles above the mouth of Shawnee Run” (present day Shaker Creek) and hence would be just east of the lands of the McMurtrys.

Samuel Hutton and three of his sons settled along the Kentucky River and along Bensom and Hamond’s Creek in the portion of Mercer County that became Franklin County in 1795 and Anderson County in 1827.

Samuel Hutton appears to have had the following children: Mary b ca 1752, James b 1760, Samuel, Joseph, Henry, John, and Hester.

Samuel Hutton is featured in an article "The Identity of Mary (Hutton) McMurtry’s Father", by Richard K. McMurtry.

For over 100 years, family historians have puzzled over the family traditions that claimed various relationships between the Todd, Hutton and McMurtry families of colonial Augusta County, Virginia. (the portion of Augusta that later became Botetourt and Rockbridge Counties). The following essay focuses on the tradition that Mary (Hutton) McMurtry’s father was James Hutton and shows that available evidence suggests that her father was Samuel Hutton, not James Hutton.
