Ritchie County Marriage records shows a marriage of John Nutter to Mary Boys on April 30, 1845. Jeanne Forney's "Nutters of Nutters Fort shows all the children shown herein as not born to Mary Boyce (except for Mary) but instead children of Sally Rebecca White. Other sources show 1829 as the marriage date indicating uncertainty if John L. Nutter married to Mary Boyce is the same as John Nutter married to Mary Boys as shown in the Ritchie Records. Ritchie County was formed in 1843 and some question the accuracy of the early records. Others question why so many of these children would have Boyce as a middle name if it weren't a reflection of the mother's maiden name. Still searching for 1830 and 1840 census records for clues to clear up this section.
