Biography

Robert Preston Utterback was born 2 Sep 1873 in Calloway, Kentucky, USA to James Henry Utterback and his first wife Frances Jane Curd. [1] [2] He died, unmarried, in 1892 when a tree fell on him. [3] His grave marker was replaced in the 1960's and he now shares a grave marker with his (also unmarried) brother, John Edward Utterback. [4]

Note: Although the "Utterback Book" by William Irvin Utterback [1] is used as a source, it is mainly used for lineage - many of the dates cited in the book are incorrect (and it only lists one wife for James Henry Utterback). Correct dates and names are taken from a family Bible. [4]
