Disputed Parents

The origins of Nicholas Hutchins are not known. Neither Jack Hutchins nor Gussie & E.C. Crider were able to determine who his parents were.

"As far as we have positive proof, Nicholas Hutchins is the forbear of this family. There are several traditions concerning the family, most of them based on the peculiar name, Strangeman. The most pleasing one is that some Hutchins previous to Nicholas married a Polly Strangeman."[7]

Hutchins-65 is the father of Hutchins-61. The sources are already on Hutchins-65 Profile Would someone look in to this. I've been researching this family for years. My 7th Grandfather Nicholas Hutchins married my seventh grandmother Mary Watkins. I'm 99.9% sure of this Nicholas being the son of John Hutchins of Towcester England and Polly Strangeman, Daughter of Hugh Strangeman and Norma Gossett, both of Towcester England.

If nothing else prove me wrong.

Thank you for identifying this. Could you please identity which of the sources listed under Hutchins-65 addresses the children.

I don't have concrete sources. I am going on my research and the research of others.
  • He was the father,undoubtedly, of at least three sons: William, Nicholasand Thomas. There was, in all probability an older sonnamed John but it has not been possible to trace him. Of the daughters of John Hutchins nothing is known. (Keith Hutchins document from 2011).
  • " 'John Hutchins, the younger brother in Virginia, was the father, undoubtedly, of at least three sons: William, Nicholas and Thomas. There was, in all probability, an older son named John but so far it has been impossible to trace him.
  • There have not been found any land patents of the proper date in his name nor are the two wills found, copies of which were sent from the Virginia State Library in Richmond, in any way conclusive.

On Strangeman Hutchins "Find A Grave" Father's Name: Nicholas Hutchens or Hutchins Gender: M (Male) Birth Date: 1645 Birthplace: Henrico County, Virginia, USA Death Date: 14 Oct 1729 Death Place: Henrico County, Virginia, USA Paternal Grandfather: John Hutchins Paternal Grandmother: Mary Polly Strangeman Mother: Mary Ann Elizabeth Watkins

If nothing else it stands to reason that William, Thomas and Nicholas are John and Mary's (Polly) children. Also Nicholas Hutchins son, Strangeman name is unusual.

Hutchins-3999 and Hutchins-61 appear to represent the same person because: Appear to be same person.

Hutchins-1130 and Hutchins-61 appear to represent the same person because: death dates don't quite match, but both are attached as husband of Mary Watkins, so they should probably be merged. Thanks!

Hi! Profiles for Mary Watkins-267 and Mary Watson-7331 are set in a rejected match. See comment posted on Watkins-267 today. Bio of Watson-7331 indicates two Marys were merged in reference (which appears to be how Watson-7331 acquired the husband - Hutchins - of Watkins-267). These profiles (for Hutchins) are now set in an unmerged match & have a G2G discussion: See https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/481297/watkins-married-nicholas-hutchins-watson-different-nicholas

Thanks!

There are 3 profiles representing Nicholas Hutchins of Virginia 1645-1729. (Hutchins-61, -349, and -1130) Although they probably represent the same person, the only points of agreement are the years of birth and death and the place of death (Virginia).
