After their first child was born they moved to this area. They had 11 other children once they moved to East Schuyler."

From: Janet Hutchins

Hi! In looking through your site, I encountered one of my ancestors in the listing for the Ladd Farm Cemetery in Schuyler. The listing has him as "Levins Hutchins" and his wife as "Bertha Hutchins". My records have his name as Leavens Hutchins, son of Benjamin Hutchins and Judith Leavens; he was born in Killingly, CT on January 8, 1748/49. His wife was Perthenia Sabin (Bertha is a little cozier, isn't it), born December 14, 1738 in Windsor, MA. He served in the Revolution with a western Mass. regiment. His son Roswell (my ancestor) was born in Hancock, MA in 1782, and moved to Michigan in 1839. I'm afraid that I don't have any information about their life in Schuyler, and why they are buried where they are. Janet Hutchins, Burlington, MA.
