Sourced Research
Birth
A Michael Lutton was christened with father Michael on 23 Apr 1615 in Ottery St Mary.[8] but that record is used for this Michael’s father. I could find no evidence of a christening for Michael in Ottery St Mary with the date 1 Mar 1647. It is possible that they are the same man.
Marriage
Michaell Litton married Joane (no last name stated) on 4 Apr 1670 in Honiton, Devon, England.[9] Honiton is 5.6 miles from Ottery St Mary. Another source for the marriage describes her as Joane Trinow and the marriage place Honiton on Otter, the date being the same[10]
I could find no evidence for a marriage in Ottery St Mary with date 1669.
Death
- There are a number of burial records for Michael Lutton or similar in Ottery St Mary. Unfortunately, none have ages and none match the date of 10 May 1720 given in this profile:
- 8 Sep 1685 Michael Lutton[11]
- 20 Apr 1689 Michaell Lutton[12] [interestingly, this record has Michaell spelt with an extra L, the same as in most of the children’s christening records]
- 5 Jun 1690 Michael Lutton[13]
- 9 Apr 1727 Michael Lytton[14]
His last child was christened in 1689, so we can probably discount the 1685 burial.

I prepared a longer version of this comment with additional references that would help to unscramble some of the entries for members of the American family, under Litton-306 Burton Caleb Litton. He is ancestor of the large Litton family of Oneida, TN, of which my late wife was a descendant.
