Benjamin Sutton, Sr. had a son named Benjamin (b. 1795) who would have been a young adult in 1818, about 23 years of age. Benjamin the younger, then, would legitimately carry the title of Junior, or Benjamin, Jr. 'Senr' assigned to Benjamin the elder's name in this document is appropriate so as to allow for differentiation from his son. Additional, random computations appear in the right margin of document, but are not included in the transcription. A large section of the upper-right corner of the document was cut away previously.
