I am looking for further information on John DUTCHER (Jr.?), b: 8 APR 1773, Salisbury, Conn. He married Martha /?/.

A son, Daniel DUTCHER, b: 1 SEP 1805, Oppenheim, Fulton Cty, NY, married Maria BULLOCK 13 APR 1825, Orleans Cty., NY. They had 11 children: Elizabeth, Benonia, Daniel T., Joseph Atwood, Abigail, Stephen, Israel, Mary M., Patience, Olive, and Victoria. The first several were born in NY. Abigail and the later children were born in White Oak, MI.

Daniel DUTCHER was a "pioneer", being the first white settler in Ingham Cty, MI. Maria BULLOCK died 7 MAY 1874. Daniel DUTCHER died 19 JUN 1890.

====================

My early forebears remain in the closet. The ones I know for certain moved a lot: NY>MI>CA>Var. states.

Samuel Townsend, of Somerset, Niagara County, NY, moved his young family to Unadilla Twp, Livingston Co., NY in 1835. He was an early pioneer in the area. His daughter, Nancy Matilda Townsend married Joseph Atwood Dutcher in Ingham Co., MI in 1858. Their son, Sanford Norman Dutcher, lived in various parts of MI until 1900+. He moved to CA and married his second wife, Clara Laack, in 1907. My mother, Dorothy Townsend Dutcher, was born in L.A., CA in 1908. She married Wallace Fraser in 1936. Her surviving descendents live in Alaska, Kansas, and Minnesota.
