I don't believe so ,The person that founded Tuttle's orchard came from
Tennesee, I spoke with one of the Grand daughters of the owner now,and she
sent ne a small pedigree chart which shows the original owner (Tuttle) Was
from Tenesee. But sevral of the Tuttle brothers fought in Tenesee in the
Civil War,But the line does not Connect anywhere that I could see with my
Tuttle Line, I have mine traced back to 1506.and In theory back to King
Tuathal Denan of Ireland, But that is just theory of course, But up to 1506
is pretty much concrete. Why do you ask? Just curious!!,Bye 4 now.

Hi, A while back I posted a query on Thomas Conant Tuttle, Somebody sent
me some info from a book on Major Thomas Conant Tuttle ,My computer
crashed and I lost the information, I was hoping to send this out with
some details and hope to find this person again, Info I have is/ Thomas
Conant Tuttle He was Born on May 24, 1815 Died Oct 15, 1873 he died when a
Team of runaway oxen ran him over on his farm ,he married Elizabeth
Francis Anderson, Thomas came to Indiana, Hancock County, Greenfield TWP,
he built the first Steam Run Saw Mill in Indiana, He first worked as a
First Mate and Master Carpenter aboard the Steam Boats He was aboard the
Steam Boat "The Charter" when it caught a fire In abt 1846 on The
Mississippi River, he was said to have saved many Lives, After his River
boat career he started farming in Greenfield Indiana Hancock County,
Thomas Conant Tuttle and Elizabeth Francis Anderson had 8 Children
1. Thomas C Tuttle, Married, Emily Underwood
2. Cordelia Tuttle
3. William Henry Harrison Tuttle
4. Martha Ann Tuttle
5. Oliver Tuttle.
6. Winfield Tuttle
7 Mary Elizabeth Tuttle, Married, Samuel P Davis
8. India Tuttle.
Thomas Conant Tuttle was said to be a Major in a Local Organized Volunteer
group of men "The Home Guard" , they were called to duty in the Morgan
Raid but never saw any action they were called back home, Somewhere are
the details of this excursion of Maj Thomas Conant Tuttle and the Home
Guard being called out, Also there is a little info on "The Knights of the
Round Circle" , which were a group of men who banded together under the
south's Army, In a sketch on Thomas Conant Tuttle it says that they had
trouble with this group, but from what I saw it was never proven. Thomas C
Tuttle son of Thomas and Elizabeth was enlisted in the Union Under The
15th Indiana Light Artillery Battery, This was my GGreat Grandfather, I do
have a picture of Thomas Conant Tuttle and one of William Henry Harrison
Tuttle also one of The Tuttle brothers, one of which is the father of Alva
Tuttle who wrote the Famous Tuttle Book "Tuttle Tuthill Line's In America"
I was also given, by a Cousin Tim Tu!
ttle Sports Writer, A Compilation of Letters written To Thomas Conant and
his brothers from his Mother "Hannah Jane Elder" These letters date back
to abt 1844, But I am looking for the info on The Home Guard in which
Thomas Conant Tuttle was Major of. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Hope to hear from a few people.
