John D. Mclntire was born in Chester county, Pennsylvania on 8 April 1819. He is the son of Robert and Elizabeth Mclntire. His father was born in Ireland. John grew up in his native state of Pennsylvania. He married on 14 Dec 1846 Miss Adaline Hutton, a native of Lancaster county, Pennsylvania. She was the daughter of Benjamin and Susan Hutton. In 1849 they moved to Ohio; two years later they moved to Illinois, locating in LaSalle County, where they remained for 13 years, and in 1864 they moved to Pike County.
John first learned the tailor's trade, which business he followed for 13 years, and then engaged in agricultural pursuits, and owned 122 acres of land on sec. 6, in Pike Co. He held the offices of Collector and School Director. He and Adaline Hutton raised their children together. Eight of their 11 children were living after his death: Anna L. (Mrs. Jeffers), Clara, Nettie, Jesse, Herbert J., Frank N., Merritt L. and Nora E. Much of this information was taken from the book “History of Pike County” Chapman & Co. 1880.

In the mid-1800s, Victorian quilters began a popular tradition of making signature quilts -- signed and quilted remembrances, to honor family members or friends.
At a time when many loved ones moved away and seldom, if ever, returned home to see their families again, these quilts were precious keepsakes. They served as precious remembrances for those families who had only occasional letters to connect them with friends and relatives back home.
Signature Quilt given to Adaline Hutton and John D. Hutton when they married and moved to Ohio and later to Illinois. The names on the quilt are family and friends in Peach Bottom, Pennsylvania. Each name is dated 14 Dec 1845.
