Dear Becky
Since I have received your post, I have been carefully studying the Sutfins in Craighead Co. It would seem that there may have been two sets of Sutfins, and possibly three, that settled there. There was your bunch, Jake and his two brothers. Then there was the William Carl Sutfin who was born in MO in 1851. This William seems to have been a descendant of the Sutfin family that lived just across the AR border in Stoddard Co., MO. Marysut@aol.com and I have done some research on this family, but not enough info has been collected to identify them. See 1860 Stoddard Co.,MO census p374. Do you suppose that one of Jonathon's sons lived for a time in Stoddard,MO. Then there was an Americus Sutphin B-1828 who lived in Nashville,TN. Americus has a son named Louis, who had a son named Isaac Sutfin, that wed in Craighead Co. There is no reason to believe that the AR, TN and MO Sutfins are not closely related. This is something that we will continue to work on. *Isaac Sutfin B-1889 Marked Tree, Poinsett Co,Ar. s/o Louis Sutfin and __.

Millie D-24 Jun 1897, buried Macedonia Cemetery. William M2 Martha Noble William committed suicide by jumping off a cliff It seems that you and Bill Couch have done a good job on your Sutfins. I ran all of the names listed as #3 on Bill's webb page. I had about the same data as was printed. I am enclosing some data on the other Sutfins. If you and Bill are working on one family only, just can the toss unneeded material. If you are doing a Craighead history, then it may be of use. Please let me know if I can be of any other assistance to you. Where do you live??
