Other researchers, including Wes Cochran, have reported Oct 22 1841. The marriage date at first glance appears to be Mar 4 1841, with the Oct 22 entry pertaining to the previously listed couple .

But Hardesty states that Andrew Nutter died in 1855 at the age of 61, which would make the birth year about 1794. Note (2) The 1860 Census shows age as 35, putting birth in about 1825. But the 1870 Census shows his age as 53, putting birth in about 1817, and the 1880 Census shows his age as 63, also putting birth in about 1817. Don Norman's "Descendants of Christopher Nutter" reports birth date as 1818, corresponding to age 74 in death record. Note (3) Don Norman reports birth date as 1820. Note (4) While her headstone shows a birth date of Apr 9 1828, researcher Don Norman states her birth as 1816, and grandson John Washington Hart, in a family information survey completed in 1931, reports it as Apr 9 1814. But those two dates are considered unlikely given the birth of her last child in 1871. Note (5) Grandson John W. Hart, in a W. Guy Tetrick family information survey completed in 1931, reports her date of death as Mar 24 1872. Note (6) But headstone of wife states marriage date as Sep 22 1844. Name Index
