Comments:

On a separate copy of this original photograph, Clellan Sutton wrote, 
“Reproduction of Family picture of Julius and Nansetta Sutton about 
1890," a date that varies slightly with the 1895 date recorded on the 
back side of the original photograph. Other sources indicate the
correct spelling of Nansetta was Nancetta.

Built between 1830-1840, the homeplace house was first occupied by 
Hardy and Annie Hill Sutton and their 14 children. Son, Julius, 
inherited the house.

Julius Eri (1847-1925) and Nancetta (Sutton) Sutton (1857-1929) had ten 
children: Annie Elizabeth (1870-1940); Joseph Hardy (1872-1895); Thomas 
Needham (1874-1951); Herman, Sr. (1876-1958); Vivan Glendora (1879-1882); 
Lee Roy (1881-1975); Julian (1884-1943); Amy Clyde (1886-1943); Jessie 
Etucka (1889-1962); and Walter Clark (1891-1918).
