This section of information is courtesy of Sam Sutton, a descendant of this Sutton lineage:

David Sutton was born, per his tombstone, on December 14, 1774 around Uniontown Pennsylvania.  In the late 1790s, he married Letitia Gard in Fayette County, PA.  Per the 1850 federal census, his second child Rachel was born on Feb. 5, 1800 in PA.  He probably relocated shortly thereafter to Butler County, Ohio, for on April 15, 1803, the state legislature appointed him a commissioner to select a site for the county courthouse.  As of August 10, 1812, he was serving as a sergeant in Captain Joel Collins' Volunteer of Riflemen of the Ohio Militia. He saw service in the War of 1812 in northern Indiana until his probable discharge in March of 1813. On September 10, 1827, he purchased and presumably relocated to a 160 acre parcel located in Section 29 of the SW quadrant of Noble Township in Rush County, IN.  Per his tombstone, he died February 21, 1863 and was buried at the Heaton Graveyard on Streets' Farm in Noble.

Letitia Gard, per her tombstone, was born on March 26, 1778, in the state of New Jersey.  She gave birth to twelve children. She died July 25, 1840 and is buried in the Heaton Graveyard on Streets' Farm in Rush County, IN.
