"Miles Ammi, son of Samuel (2) Tuttle, 1400a 1400b 1400c 1401 was born December 21, 1802. He was a prominent business man of Hartford. He was in company with his father and brothers under the firm name of S. Tuttle & Sons, dealing in grindstones, gypsum, seeds and groceries. The business was first carried on in a frame house on the site of the present double brick house, which Samuel Tuttle built and occupied until his death in 1850. Miles A. Tuttle was a director in the Aetna Insurance Company, the Farmers and Mechanics Bank, and the Hartford Hospital, and a trustee of the Society for Savings. He was a member of Christ Church. He died in Paris, France, October 26, 1858, and was buried in Hartford December 22, 1858."
OBIT":
The Hartford Courant said:
"Our citizens will learn with regret that Miles A. Tuttle , Esq., of this city is deceased. He died at Paris at one o'clock on the afternoon of October 26. We understand that he passed away very peacefully, and in the full possession of his reason. Rev. Mr. Seeley, American chaplain, was present with other friends to minister to his spiritual and temporal wants. Mr. Tuttle was a man highly esteemed in this community where he has always lived. The body was shipped on board the 'Vanderbilt,' which sailed November 2 , and will probably arrive at New York by Saturday. Samuel I. Tuttle, his brother, and Dr. Russell, brother-in-law, sailed from New York in the 'Persia' on Wednesday, hoping to have reached Paris before he died."
