About Desire Read

  • http://www.oocities.com/tiggernut24/Readyhough/tuttle.html
  • The Tuttle story is one of my qualifying stories for Rootsweb's International Black Sheep Society
  • After checking out the citations that people sent me, as much as I could get ahold of them, mostly TAG, and a couple of citations, I never did get ahold of the Prindle book, I found that documents such as wills establish that the Tuttles were of Northampton. My sources, as well as a summary of the disproven roots cited in older Tuttle genealogies in the United States, are below.
  • Ringstead Tuttles
  • This is the true Tuttle lineage. The material is a little confusing.
  • Here is the version I put together;
  • 1. John b 1631 m Catharine or Cattarina Lane 11/8/1653. , dau of John, of Milford,
    • John b 9/15/1657 m 5/29/1689 Mary Burroughs
      • Ephraim b 4/2/1690
      • John b 9/5/1692
      • Nathan b 1/20/1694
      • Mary b 12/26/1696 m Epharaiim, Looomis.
      • 'Desire b NH 7/11/1697, m 4/20/1726 Daniel TODD, m 2 8/26/1730 John READ.
