HARDY & ANNIE HILL SUTTON FAMILY BIBLE, Bef. 1881 Page 677 [Left column] Births Mary was born Sept this 7th day 1841 Isaac was born March the 10th day 1842 Lela was born January the 24th 1844 Clarka was born April the 14th day 1844 Fortune was born September 7th 1845 George was born January 16th day 1846 Charity was born April the 27th day 1847 Martha Jane was born June the 5th day 1848 Gatsy was born Nov the 25 1849 [Right column] Births Nicy was born Feb. the 6th day 1812 Right was born April the 18th day 1829 Rachel was born May the 22nd day 1829 Jeremiah was born Feb the 17 day 1831 Cloy was born December the 25 day 1831 Noel was born May the 4th day 1832 Margot was born July the 15 day 1835 Prince was born July the 4th day 1835 Chany was born July the 29th day 1837 Mila was born November the 2nd day 1838 Hester was [born] Dec the 8th day 1839 Julia was born Sept the 7th 1839 END OF DOCUMENT Comments: These were likely children born to slaves owned by Hardy and Annie Hill Sutton, as none of the names correlate with any known children of Hardy and Annie Sutton or other Bucklesberry Sutton kin. ---------- Page 678 [Left column] Elisha Uzzell [scribble] was bornede on the May 21 day 1814 Elizebeth Uzzell daughter of Thomas Uzzell was Bornde 19 the March 1816 Winny Linde Uzzell bornde april the 7 1818 Leah Uzzell was bornde Janary 27 the 1820 John Gray Uzell was Bornde September the 28 day 1821 Hariot mozango was born October 30 1813 Catori mozongo was born Sept 6 day 1815 Amy mozingo was born Sept 26 1818 Miron Mozingo was born March 6 day 1820 [Right column] Samuel Ivy Sutton was born Nov the 8th day 1834 Hardy Sutton was born Sept the 17th day 1803 Anna Hill was born October the 3rd day 1807 Nancy Sutton was born July [September the crossed out] the 15th day 1825 Thomas Sutton was born September the 2nd 1826 Elizabeth Sutton was born December the 12 day 1827 Martha Sutton was born May 20th day 1829 William Harman Sutton was born September the 22 day 1832 Richard Sutton was June the 5 day 1833 Lemuel Hardy Sutton was born Nov the 14th day 1835 Benjamin Franklin Sutton was born Sept. the 17th day 1838 END OF DOCUMENT Comments: Per Allen Humphrey in his transcription of the 1850 Census of Lenoir County, Ivey Sutton (age 16) was the only member in the Thomas Sutton (age 68) household. Ivey’s derived birth date would have been 1834, which is aligns with the birth year of 1834 for Samuel Ivy Sutton recorded on this page of the Hardy and Annie Hill Sutton Bible. Martha Mewborn Marble’s position is that it is unclear whether Ivey was the son of this Thomas, although it is entirely probable, given previously undisclosed family documents that have emerged of recent. Ms. Marble believes this Thomas is probably the son of Benjamin and Sarah Hardy Sutton. The 1850 Census data provides the basis for establishing a circa 1782 birth date for Thomas, father of Samuel Ivey Sutton.

The names of children, John Aldredge and Sally Hardy, appear in the same ink color and handwritingstyle as the 8 children listed on the previous page 678 of the Bible. The names of children,Louiza, Junius, Julius, and Christian, are recorded in a different color ink and with a different handwriting style. The Wood family lived in the two-story house that still stands in the Potneck community (part of the greater Bucklesberry community), directly off of Kennedy Home Road, about a quarter mile east of the Jeremiah Sutton Cemetery. ---------- Page 680 [Left column] Thomas Departed this life February 11th 1828 age forty one years 3 months and Twenty Six days Elisha Uzzell dyd [crossed out] died March the 18th 1832 age 17 year 10 mo and 28 days Births Julian Leslie Sutton was born September the 19 1884 [Right column] John Gray departed this life October the 7 1830 Births Allen was born November the 22nd 1852 Arter was born March the 9th day 1853 Samuel was born April the 15th day 1853 Leroy was born November the 8th 1855 Avy was born August 6th 1858 Nicy was born Sept the 8th 1859 Burbary was born Nov the 23 1860 Fountain was born Aug 18th day 1861 END OF DOCUMENT Comments: The first entered name in the left colum, Thomas, has an extrapolated birth date of October 16, 1786. This is probably Thomas Uzzell, given Elisha Uzzell with the same last name is listed directly beneath the name of Thomas. Matt Harris identifies a Thomas Uzzell, Jr. with the same death year of 1828 and birth year of 1786 as the Thomas herein. He was the son of Thomas, Sr. and Mary Parr Uzzell. Mr. Harris also lists an Elisha Uzzell with the same death date of 1832 as recorded herein. In addition, Mr. Harris notes that Thomas, Jr. served in the military: On Ancestry.com a search on Thomas Uzzell turned up a record from the War of 1812. He was listed in Capt. Cox Company of NC Militia (Roll/Box 213, Roll-exct 602) as a Corporal. See Matt Harris notes online: http://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/uzzell/376/ …Matt Harris notes… Martha Mewborn Marble notes: The five children of Thomas Uzzell, Jr. were Elisha, Elizabeth, Winnie Linde, Leah, and John Gray, as listed on p. 678 of the Hardy and Annie Hill Sutton Bible. See http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~paday/dobbers/uzzell/pafn02.htm Per the earliest documents in the Clellan Sutton Collection which name the first John Sutton from Bertie County to arrive in Bucklesberry, there are Sutton ties to the Uzzell family, in particular, Thomas Uzzell.
