Guttery-22 and Guttery-8 appear to represent the same person because: they share the same birth year, the same parents and the same siblings.

I agree they should be merged. I believe the birth location is wrong on Guttery-8, should be Lincoln, Hall County, Georgia.

Hello, Patti,

I found this source regarding your comment above about Robert's birth location:

The following history is taken from Dombhar's History of Walker County, Alabama [FHL Call No. 976.176 H2d, pages 212-217:

Robert Guttery, the eldest son of William and Hannah Guttery, was born in Georgia on February 26, 1801, and was brought by his parents, first to Lincoln County, Tennessee, and later to Walker County, in his young manhood, his father having settled near Holly Grove shortly before 1802. He was reared on a wilderness farm, where opportunities for education and other advantages were sadly lacking. However, through training and precept Robert Guttery was deeply religious. In 1824 he joined the Primitive Baptist Church at Holly Grove, and in 1826 he was ordained a minister of that faith, serving as such for fifty-one years.

So that must be where the "Lincoln, Hall County, GA" birthplace reference is from.

So it's best to say Robert was born in Georgia.

Thanks!

Linda
