The McCutchen Trace
Hi,I am not related to the McCutchen family but wanted to post a message of one book i found while going thru boxes this weekend for my yard sale.
The book title:The McCutchen Trace
Written by :Hildegard Smith
Thinking it was written in 1963 and was copy right date in 1964.
This book is full of information reguarding the 3 McCutchen brothers; Patrick, James and Samuel.
Below is the Dedication:
This book is lovingly dedicated to my mother, Mary Elizabeth McCutchen Smith, and to her forebears, with especial emphasis being placed upon the McCutchen and Bell families with whom I have become quite well acquainted.My affection for them has greatly increased as their history has unfolded.
I would also acknowledge my love and admiration for my father John Taylor Smith and my appreciation for his life and the influence it had, not only upon his family but as well upon all people with whom he had contact.I would pay tribute to his forebears with apologies that i have not traced their line, one which i am certain would prove most fascinating, if i only had the time to unravel its record.
This i have started many times but invaribly a bit of history of my mothers line would reveal itself, which would absorb all energies at the moment. I ceased the Smith research with a promise to return to it at some future time.A promise so far unfilled.
William Henry McCutchen was my grandfather, and it is perhaps to him that i owe these efforts since it was he who first inspired in me a love and appreciation for my ancestors, who of course, were also his.Therefore this book is also dedicated to him.
~ Hildegard Smith
