Subject: Duttons Married in Walker County

A few years back I copied most of the Duttons who were married in Walker County AL. These are some of the names that I have not been able yet to connect to my knowledge of the Walker County Duttons. Do any of you cousins know their connections to our ZDuttons? Addie Dutton m. Will White, 1908 Bird Dutton m. Jake Swartz, 1893 Epp Dutton m. Thomas McCluskey, 1913 Ida Dutton m. C. P. or C. R. Sims, 1900 Iza Dutton m. R. M. Williams J. J. Dutton m. Nancy Jeffries, 1906 J. J. Dutton m. M. E. Harper, 1879 J. L. Dutton m. Cora Gann, 1908 J. M. Dutton m. Merlie Myers, 1905 Joda Dutton m. Riley Christon, 1896 Lizzie Dutton m. James Hall, 1908 Naomi J. Dutton m. Mathew Tucker, 1879 W. R. Dutton m. F. V. Fike -I think this is our (John Dutton son of Zachariah Sr. desc.) W. Robert Dutton, (son of William, grandson of James), who married whom all his family records is Lena Fike. His family have a different day in August for a marriage date (same year) and no one replies to my queries as to whether Lena was a nickname or a shortened name. I don't know if his family have the marriage day wrong. There was another W. R. Dutton in Walker County during this time that can not be our W. Robert, and there were a number of Fike families, so it possibily can be a different W. R. However, W. Robert's family say he was married in Walker County and I found no other record. Given the way these Duttons seemed to have moved around from the various counties in AL these are all most likely in some of your family history files. Would appreciate knowing if you see a familiar Dutton here. One of my projects is to connect together all the Dutton names in records in Walker County, and those also who currently live there. It is difficult to contact them by mail as the phone book addresses when I was there do not give specific street addresses for many.....there were rural routes and designations such as Russell Dairy Road and the mail is returned. Also now, they have reassigned all the rural route addresses to specific numbered addresses on road names for 911 purposes. So with the new directory, mail inquiries could be a possibility. But alas, my residential phone directory CD program has the older rural routes. If anyone has the new update of this program and could be so kind as to pull up Duttons in Walker County and pass them on, I would do a song and dance in your honor. . . no, you would not enjoy seeing it as that is not my forte, but rest assured I would dance for joy. If this is available on the net, clue me in. I found business addresses, but not residential. SHUT EYE TIME. . . . .YAWN. EULA
