[Abraham.FTW] Alexander McNutt to David Granville Nutt, Sr. to Murphy Watson Nutt to my great grandfather, James Polk McNutt (he added the "Mc" as requested by his wife). He was Murphy's 4th born and your John was the youngest of 8 children according to my records. I just recently found the surname of the mother of James and John. She was Frances "Fanny" Weaver. A lot of my information came from the book "Nutt/McNutt, Descendants of David Nutt of Orange County, North Carolina". It probably would be bett . I have very little info on Murphy. Doc Nutt sent message that Murphy is son of David Lee Nutt, Sr. and Rachel Cates. Doc also sent Murphy's siblings, do you have these? I am descended from Murphy's son John R. Nutt, born 11-23-1851. Doc Nutt referred me to Nancy S. Wells "Nutt" family tree on Rootsweb, but I haven't seen that yet. I would appreciate any info you have, and will provide what I have if you want it. Did your branch of the family change their name to McNutt? MURPHY WATSON NUTT was born Abt. 1812 in Orange County, North Carolina, and died December 27, 1883 in Lawrence County, Tennessee.
