Note: MEMORIES FROM SON, GEORGE TUTTLE: [This was posted in a public family tree on Ancestry.com owned by Icincurak.]
"When my Father was 21 years of age he told his parents to give him a gun and an axe and a basket of food and he started out to find a home for himself. By night he had come 12 miles and stayed with Mr. & Mrs. Hecox. In the morning Mr Hecox told him he could get woodland next to him. Mr. Hecox helped him build a log cabin there where he lived and kept batch. Mrs. Hecox baked bread for him one night when he was going home with hot bread a bunch of wolves came at him. He reached his cabin safe by throwing chunks of hot bread to them. This was in 1818 and when he had kept batch for 12 yrs. he married Julia Cramb - who had been Julia Hecox."
