  Reed Dutton. Was born in Canada on October 19, 1828. When about ten years old,
he, with his parents, moved to Ohio. Here he married Emily Culver in 1849. She
was born in Belleville, Richland county, Ohio. Mr. Dutton came to this State,
via Panama, arriving in San Francisco in November, 1849. He at once proceeded to
San Jose, where his brother Warren was living, and there remained till the
Spring of 1850; then went to the mines at Sonora, Tuolumne county, in company
with his brother, where he engaged in mining till about January, 1852, when he
returned to Richland county, Ohio, and there worked at his trade, that of a
gunsmith, having learned it in his younger days. He again came to this State in
1860, crossing the plains with his family, and settled in Tomales, where he
opened the first blacksmith shop in the upper town, laid out by his brother
Warren. Lucelia and Lucina, twins; Albert W., Frank, Emma Jane, Ada, William and
