Biography

Sudt Garland d. 24 Dec 1736

"This lady, the daughter of Silvester Garland, is named "Sodt" in her father's and her brother John's wills, but by Webster, "Suitt," and on her tombstone "Suit," while the same name is perpetuated among her posterity, under the forms "Sutia," "Sutiah," and "Satira." Where the word came from we cannot tell. Possibly it was the Christian, or the family, name of her mother, or of one of her mother's relatives. "Souter" is not an unknown appellation. It means "sewer."

Suit Garland was born, probably in New Castle, Delaware, in the year 1694 - judging from her tombstone inscription. She is the daughter of Sylvester Garland and Soetji Vanderculin

According to the registry of the First Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, she was married to the Rev. James Anderson "12-5-1712" which means probably Feb. 5, 1713, according to the present style. Her name is recorded "Sout" and she doubtless married in Philadelphia. For some years after this she lived with her husband at New Castle in a house belonging to her father, but afterwards bequeathed to her. About 1717 she removed to New York, and in 1727 to Donegal, Lancaster (then Chester) County Pennsylvania. Several of her eleven children were born in each of these places. She died at Donegal, Dec. 24, 1736. On one side of a torn leaf of the record in her husband's family Bible is a "reference to the death of a very beautiful woman by small-pox," who is supposed to have been Mrs. Anderson. The esteem in which she was held may be inferred from the number of her namesakes in every generation of her descendants. She lies buried in the Donegal churchyard under a large stone slab devoted to her memory and that of her husband."
