Joanne,
Fielding UTZ b.3 Aug 1794 is a descendant of George(or Hans George)UTZ/OUTZ/WOOTS/WOODS(and various other spellings) who was one of the 1717 group of immigrants to the GERMANNA Colonies in VA.
Fielding's parents were John UTZ b.14 Apr 1766 and Elizabeth CRISLER(Crisler, Garr, Smith and Thomas ancestry) b.30 Aug 1769 married in Culpeper County , VA 23 Dec 1788. The UTZ line to Fielding goes from the immigrant George b. abt.1695 in Germany,d.in Culpeper in 1766. Son, Michael b.abt 1718 d.1790 in Culpeper. Son, George(George, Michael)b.abt. 1740, d. after 28 Feb 1798. Son, John(George, Michael, George) is listed above as Fielding's father. You can find a great deal of info about him and all your other ancestors in this line by visiting http://www.germanna.net/http://www.germanna.net/ where you will find links to various related names as well as to the Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies. They have books you can buy that have the UTZ family line in them. These books are also available in some genealogy depts. of large libraries.You will find that these families intermarried alot and that you, like myself, have many other ancestors and surnames among them.
I am an UTZ descendant also and have been this last summer to the annual Germanna reunion where I was thrilled to be able to stand on the original UTZ patent(grant) in Madison, VA and to sit and sing a hymn in the old Hebron Church that these ancestors built in 1740.
Regards and happy hunting, Suzee
