About Elizabeth Sutton

 Not the same as Elizabeth Riggs.  Seen as daughter of Phillip Cox, Sr.  (1677–1736) & Dorcas  Hull 1685–1753 But it’s not likely.

Dorcas Graves (108) was born about 1685 and died in Feb. 1753. She married Philip (or Phillip) Cox, son of Isaac Cox and Sarah Sutton. He was born about 1677 or 1680 in or near London, England, and died about 1 Aug. 1736 in Somerset Co., NJ. (R‑70, R‑71)

I found a very old pamphlet called "Genealogical Record of Mercer, Sutton and Cox Heirs to Their Ancestors' Estate" compiled by James V. Snyder, Harvey, ILL.This pamphlet is falling apart.Sometimes it repeats itself and is sometimes confusing but thought some of you might need this information. James Duke of York, (after James II) which were ceded to him by his brother Charles II., fully one-half of New Jersey, N.E. portion belonging to Carteret's wife. After Sir Georg's death she married William Larwence.Carteret had a daughter Elizabeth who married Marquis Geo. Trembly an aristocratic French Huguenot, and had a daughter Johana who married Philip Cox as second wife 1729.He was born 1681 son of Isaac Cox. There were two daughters of Berkley (think this is William Berkley son of William Berkley, Royal Gov of VA from 1646-1651).Sarah Berkley married 1st a Sutton, no issue.married 2nd Sir Isaac Cox brother of Dr. Daniel Cox 1660, (Isaac born about 1650) son of Philip Cox, &c,&c.

Elizabeth married Marquis Geo. Trembley and had daughter Hannah who married Philip Cox, Son of Isaac and Sarah who married a Sutton died, no issue.Then married Rev David Sutton, a famous Baptist minister by whom there were seven or eight sons and three daughters.
