Correct Birth Info for Nathan Cutler, Husband of Betsey Travers.

philiplhayes — 2012-05-01 03:17:15Z

I have recently acquired several DAR applications that indicate that Nathan Cutler, a revolutionary war vet was born in 1758 in Peekskill, New York, NOT 1756 in Coeymans, New York. This makes sense to me since I am looking for the ancestors of Nathaniel Cutler of Bedford, NY. I believe this branch may be related to my Nathaniel branch. My Nathaniel has a sister named Zilpha. Nathan (above) had a son named John who married a Zilpha Utter. There is no way that this is just a coincidence.

Can anybody show me proof of Nathans birth in Coeymans? EVERY online tree I found with Nathan Cutler in it states his birthplace is Coeymans. I am sure this is just a matter of people coping data without verifying it, but it has been so accepted I imagine it will be very difficult to convince others that they have the wrong info. Even the popular "A Cutler Memorial and Genealogical History" has the Coeymans information, but they clearly state their info is not solid.

The DAR applications come various close family members dating back to 1901.

I look forward to hearing what you all make of this.

Thanks.

Re: Finding parents of C. S. Cutler

DeborahSbarra — 2012-04-13 15:21:05Z

Thank you for your reply. Yea, that was my grandfather...his full name was Charles Sherman Cutler. I have my grandfathers birth certificate but all that was on it was his father's name James and a mother named Letha. I have since discovered information that leads me to believe that my grandfather's mother's name was Lea Shepherd. She was a widow who had been married to Franklin VanCamp. I just can't seem to find any more information on James.

I don't know about your line in particular but I bet they're related to this line:

Joseph CUTLER, Sr (1806-1857) married Prudence DODGE Prudence was the dau of Joel DODGE and Hannah CUTLER. (Haven't figured out Hannah's parents.) Prudence was born 1815 in NY and died 1894, Lorain Co., OH. Prudence is buried in Fields Cem., N. Ridgeville, Lorain Co.,OH along with her son, Joseph CUTLER, Jr.

Rhoda CUTLER (1833, NY - 1914, MI) married Alonzo QUACKENBUSH. They are in the 1860 census of Amherst Twp., Lorain Co., OH

The CUTLERs moved around together. You'll find them in Medina Co. and Williams Cos., OH.

Hi Diana, all of my Cutler ancestors that i know of were born in Staffordshire or Worcestershire, England. Do you think that any of yours are connected at all.

Thomas Cutler, b ca 1799 Virginia

pdinger44 — 2012-02-03 23:01:50Z

Seeking the parents and siblings of my 3rd great-grandfather Thomas Cutler (born ca 1799 in Virginia, died July 1849 in Miami County, Ohio).

On 12 September 1826 in Fayette County, Ohio, he married Jane Fitzhugh (b ca 1807 in Virginia, died July 1849 in Miami County, Ohio.) Jane was the daughter of William Fitzhugh and Elizabeth Catesby Cocke, who were married 5 July 1793 in Northumberland County, Virginia.

Both Jane and Thomas, as well as their 3 youngest daughters died in a cholera epidemic.

I'm hoping somebody with Virginia Cutlers might have an "unattached" Thomas Cutler who could possibly be my ancestor.

Any hints and clues greatly appreciated!

lorriejohnson65 — 2012-02-01 05:21:21Z

The family story is that my great grandfather just left one day and never came back. His wife (Mary Josephine Nichols; AKA May J.) never remarried, although she had a "companion". The last I find him is in the 1920 census, but I haven't found him in 1930. In the 1910 census he was living in RI.

Re: Mark Cutler

stukawife — 2012-01-23 21:17:18Z

Actually I kind of thought that would be the case. We wer best friends when we were kids, he lived up the street from me, but then he moved away and except for a very few spoadic phone calls I lost track. I should hve thought to look at Findagrave, I have used that iste many times. Thanks for the info, ad that it is.

I believe this all to be correct with the exception that Warner is actually Warren. (Misspelled in 1870 census) He is the son of Charles and Caroline and the father of Clyde J. Cutler who is my paternal grandfather.

Re: FOREBEARS OF BENJAMIN RICHARD CUTLER - LONDON

estanley126 — 2011-12-05 08:48:56Z

There's another worry though! Maybe the Benjamin came from Benjamin Disraeli who was P.M. of England at some stage around then!!
My B.R.C's father's wife looks to have possibly come from the Dockyard area of London - East London - so that's narrowing the gap with your ancestors-but I'm hoping his death cert. will give me some clues.

estanley126 — 2011-12-03 13:51:48Z

Not too sure about that!! It now looks as if the portraits may have been painted by a talented granddaughter in Australia.
Benjamin Cutlers were extremely rare in U.K. so I don't want to give up on a connection. I've sent to Sydney for B.R.C's (and his wife's) Death Certificates in the hope that parents' names and places of birth are included; as they usually are on N.Z. death certificates - I'm hoping Aussie ones are as good!!! I want to pin down his father William as I suspect the family tree may go back to Hampshire before London.

estanley126 — 2011-11-28 22:01:00Z

This William father of Benjamin (1797-1868) I have as William Richard Cutler who married Mary Burns - Benjamin had Richard as a 2nd name as well. I have followed all the twists and turns in Australia and it's true: Sir Roden IS descended from that branch of the Cutlers.
Hope This Helps.

Re: FOREBEARS OF BENJAMIN RICHARD CUTLER - LONDON

estanley126 — 2011-11-26 21:19:03Z

MY BENJAMIN'S FATHER WAS A WILLIAM - THIS NAME COMES OUT FURTHER DOWN THE FAMILY TREE, BUT I THINK WE NEED WILLIAM'S FATHER TO BE A BENJAMIN OR A SAMUEL TO SEE IF THERE'S A COUSIN CONNECTION. THE FACT THAT BENJAMIN WAS RICH ENOUGH TO HAVE PORTRAITS PAINTED OF HIMSELF AND HIS WIFE HAS ME WONDERING....
MAYBE HE WAS FIRST GENERATION IN LONDON? I'M A N.Z. CUTLER, YOU SHOULD SEE MY FAMILY TREE TO SEE THE SKELETON IN THE AUSSIE CUTLERS' CUPBOARD!!!!

I have in my tree a Benjamin Cutler from London in that era but have little info other than a name and that he died 1837 in Bishopsgate, London. So not the same person, but possibly related (cousin?). Mine because associated with the Church of New Jerusalem ("New Church") according to baptismal records, was married to Sarah Green. They had a son, Benjamin, in addition to at least 3 daughters.
Any connections?

He moved to Boca Roton FL before 1979 and I only heard from him once after that. He has a younger sister Cindy born about 1966. I knew him when we both lived in Yorktown Heights NY. I am hoping someone searching that family may have come across him or sign of him. he will know me as Carol Allen.

Looking For Help With Ebenezer and Abner Cutler of Cortlandt, NY

philiplhayes — 2011-09-29 22:13:36Z

In the 1790 US Census, I have found an Ebenezer and Abner Cutler living in Cortlandt, Westchester, New York.

In both households, there was one free male over 16 and two free white females.

I cannot find them in any other records of any type. Is anybody familiar with either of these two Cutlers? Does anybody have any suggestions on where to look for them?

Gideon Benjamin Cutler

divedeeper803112 — 2011-08-07 01:54:13Z

I have a 1982 ed of Bonnie Bogenrief's "Cutler Memorial and Genealogical History" and I was wondering if any headway had been made on identifying Gideon's grandparents.

Bonnie wrote that a census record has Gideon claiming his father's birthplace as New Hampshire but she had not made any headway yet on establishing his date of birth or parents.

I have also reviewed Nahum Sawin Cutler's history to little avail (There is an interesting lead in John Cutler's descendants but I am making no headway getting any info on that John) but that is not very surprising as I do not know John's age at the time of his marriage to Mabel.

Any help would be appreciated

Chloe Cutler and Leonard Johnson in Lorain County, Ohio

maradeth — 2011-06-22 04:08:13Z

I would appreciate any information on this family. I would especially like to know the parents and siblings of Chloe Cutler.

Chloe Cutler was born 13 Jun 1809 in New York and died 1 Sep 1853 in Lorain County, Ohio. She married Leonard Johnson 3 Feb 1825 in Lorain County, Ohio. Leonard was born 17 May 1798 in Connecticut and died 10 Apr 1873 in Lorain County, Ohio. Both are buried in Middle Ridge Cemetery, Amherst Township, Lorain, Ohio. These are the children I know about:

1. Edwin born 24 Nov 1826 in Ohio and died bef 1910.
2. Clarissa Cutler born 18 Mar 1828 in Ohio and died 17 Feb 1909 in Decatur, Burt, Nebraska. She married Dewitt Clinton Griffin 14 Oct 1845 in Elyria Lorain, OH.
3. Stephen born 14 Nov 1829 in Ohio and died bef 1910.
4. Julia b 22 Apr 1831 in Ohio and died bef 1910.
5. Martin #1 born 18 Apr 1833 in Ohio (died in infancy).
6. Martin #2 born 22 Feb 1835 and died bef 1910.
7. Mary born 23 Dec 1836 in Ohio and died bef 1910.
8. Henry born 29 Dec 1838 in Ohio and died bef 1910.
9. Alonzo born 23 Feb 1841 in Ohio and died bef 1910.
10. Andrew born 23 Jan 1843 in Elyria, Lorain, Ohio and died 31 May 1832 in Elyria, Lorain, Ohio. He married Eliza P. Root 11 May 1865 in Ohio. Andrew was a soldier in the Civil War: Ohio Volunteer Infantry, Company K, Reg. 135. Andrew is buried in Middle Ridge Cemetery, Amerherst Township, Lorain, Ohio.
11. John born 17 Apr 1845 in Ohio and died bef 1910.

Leonard's second marriage was to Adaline. She's on the 1870 census with Leonard and a son, Mirvin (not sure if he's Leonard's son with Chloe or Adaline's by a previous marriage. Mirvin was born abt 1853, the same year Chloe died).

Most of the information I have, I got from a biography on Andrew (child #10). "History of the Western Reserve" by Harriet Taylor Upton, 1910.

Cutlers in Wheatacre, Norfolk, England

heatherkuhn_1 — 2011-06-19 23:24:40Z

I am researching the Wrinch and Cutler families of Wheatacre Parish. I have tracked my immigrant ancestor, James Cutler (b. 1815) from the state of Ohio in America back to the Parish of Wheatacre, All Saints in Norfolk. Through the FamilySearch website I was able to find his birth record which indicates that his parents were Robert Cutler and Sarah Wrinch. They were married in Wheatacre in 1806 and I found a death record for a William Wrinch, age 75, died 1808...I believe he is Sarah's father or possibly grandfather. I have not been able to find any other records on the Wrinch line. I have searched all of the Wheatacre and Burg St. Peter's records I have access to in order to find more information on the Wrinch line (i.e. William's parents) or on the Cutlers, without any luck. Any information is greatly appreciated.

Cutlers with Roots in England

skyclimber1801 — 2011-05-24 14:23:52Z

Hi all,

My own family of Cutlers lived in the Midlands in England,around the Derbyshire and Nottingham areas,throughout the generations up unti about 1900 the tradition of carrying certain first names on has been fairly consistant.
Recurring names are Rebecca,Mary,Hannah and Elizabeth and John, Thomas,Samuel and George.
I have also noticed that around several areas of Britain patterns of these names occur.
Concentrations of Cutler famlies seem to be in the following areas,

Norfolk, Suffolk, Dorset,Worcestershire,Derbyshire,Nottingham,Lincoln and Yorkshire.

I understand that the surname Cutler is an occupational name and therefore it is unlikely that all are related as many may have change their names from say Smith (blacksmith)to Cutler.

Recently I have had a Y DNA test done to see if any one elses DNA matched with my own. As the Y chromosome is passed from father to son down the generations the test is at the moment only suitable for male participants.
Oddly enough in all the databases I checked no other Cutlers matched, the nearest match could be a surname of Mills.

I have to date a confident paper trail back to abt 1750 with anecdotal evidence back to abt 1615 for my ancestors but at the moment no sign of anyone called Mills.

If anyone with the surname Cutler that has links to any of the places mentioned and is thinking about DNA testing I would be very interested to hear about your results so we can compare them to see if any links exist,

many thanks

Paul

Re: Zilpha Cutler > marriage record

Hello Phil, I found a marriage record for Emeline Bailey who married ( William ) Hobart Smith in Manhattan ( Certificate # 408 ) on Feb 9, 1876 Manhattan. It states she is the daughter of Daniel Bailey and Zilpha(etta) Cutler. I think this is the family you are looking for. They are also listed in the 1860/1870 US Census under Daniel Bailey in Manhattan in the 20th Ward 3rd District. Emeline is listed with Daniel but Zilpha is listed as Sylvia or Sophia but I believe this to be them. I have requested the certificate and will ship it off to you when I receive it.

Okay this is a long shot.

In the 1800's a man surnamed Cutler had (at least) 3 sons. When this man passed away, he left his massive fortune to the 3 sons. 2 of the sons argued with another and he joined the Navy, jumped ship in Liverpool and his Cutler side settled there (he had a son in 1889 born in Liverpool if that helps with the timeline).

I'm looking for anyone from the Cutler side who remained in Norfolk, to try and add some missing pieces to the family tree.

I don't have much info at all as yet. I will add to this if I find any.

It is a long shot but any advice would be grateful.

I think I may have some interesting info for you. Also... with the additional info you provided, I may be able to go back and research more so that we can make the connection. I have been aggressively researching the Cutler family for close to a year now. I once lived in area where they lived. Where was your Charles in 1930? Was he married?

Contact me off list and I will send you some stuff.

Hi Phil. I have found your Cutler family tree very helpful. My future son in law is a Cutler who's grandfather, Joseph Edward Cutler was born in Mt Kisco in 1903 to Charles A. Cutler who died in Danbury Ct in 1963 at age 87 yrs which puts his birth also in Mt Kisco in 1875. I had been reseaching the Nathaniel Cutler family to find a connection but was unable to until I saw your reference of the Cyrus Cutler family in 1880 US Census. The youngest son, and your Annie Yerks sister, is listed as Agustus C. Cutter who I believe now is our ancestor. He is listed in the 1920 census as August Cutler and then in the 1930 as Charles Cutler. He must have started using his middle name later in life. I saw your reference to the older ancestor John Cutler. I have found no Westchester records in that name but there are some intereting legal records for a Joseph Cutler of White Plains for early 1800's in the Westchester Archives. Have you come across any other references to Augustus Charles Cutler in your research? I can provide you info on his family going forward to present. His hiers married into the Kilburn family also a very prominant early colonial and old English family name.

CUTLER, DANIEL W, Vermont

Searching for any information on DANIEL W. CUTLER b. Bakersfield, VT. He was a resident of St Johnsbury, VT when he volunteered in the Civil War. He enlisted Sept 17, 1861, mustered out June 26, 1865. He is listed in the 1860 census of St Johnsbury, VT living with Melinda Cutler, age 64 who may be his mother. Seek name of his parents and if and who he married. Civil War records say unknown death or burial. Any help will be appreciated.

To Phillip and Lupine 10: Yes, Abigail Robbins was the 2nd wife of Hezikel Cutler. She is my 6th gr grandmother. The name of Clark goes through my ancestry too. I would be interested to know if Susanah was related to other Clarks in my family as all of my ancestry begins in Killngly CT. I don't have any info on the Cutlers other than Abby married one. I would love any info Phillip or anyone could provide me on the Cutler/Clark families. Please contact me at: im2funny4u@juno.com. Thank you, Renne Harrington

Hello Phillip,

Sorry, I don't have any additional information on CUTLER that would help answer your interesting question. I'm not a CUTLER researcher. However, should I come across more biographical information on them I shall post it.

Based on Section (IV) of the biography here, it does seem a possibility with Hezekiah's 2nd wife, Mrs. Abigail Robbins. Which begs the question: Did Manasseh have additional half-brother(s) or step-brother(s)?

Hi there. You seem to have quite a bit ok knowledge about Manasseh Cutler. Last year, I acquired a Daguerreotype photograph of a Cutler relative from Bedford, NY. Her name was Araminta Cutler. The photo came with a typed out note. Here is what it said (complete with typo's/spelling errors).

"A brother was born in 1836. Her first ancestor in America came from England to Mass in 1634. Her only illustrious ancestor was Rev Manasch Cutler, who was one of three sent by Wash. to open up the N.W. Territory; wrote the Ordinance of 1787; was a member of Congress, etc. He was half brother to Araminta's Great-gr.,gr.,gr., grandfather."

My question is... Did Manasseh Cutler have a half brother? I can't seem to find any reference to one.

Thanks.
