Robert sold or gave away his inherited property and moved to "Kentucky".
He purchased someone's land warrant near Maryville, Tennessee. He was one
of the founder's of New Providence Presb. Church in Maryville, TN as were
Tedfords & McCullochs. He may have married twice ; children appear to
have been born 20 years apart. One indication: he may have married
Elizabeth Finley, daughter of Thankful Doak and John Finley, who were
buried in Augusta Co., VA. Dates for one Robert McNutt are b 18 Jan
1739/40 Augusta Co., VA and died 1794 KY. Is this the same man?

Note for: James McNUTT, 1 JAN 1738/39 - Index
Note: From unknown source...
James fought with the British in the French and Indian War and was in
Quebec with General Wolfe in 1760. He received a grant of land with his
brother, William, in Winslow, NS in 1763, but it is not known whether he
ever took up the land. After the American Revolution broke out, James and
Eva appear to have participated in the Loyalist migration to Canada with
Eva's parents, Gerardus and Saartje Dingman. James enlisted in Butler's
Rangers but apparently never served. He apparently died at Machiche in
1779. Eva's parents died there in 1782. After James' death, Eva married
John Pencel, apparently also a Loyalist. In 1787, Eva filed a claim with
the Loyalist Commissioners on behalf of her son James, then 14 years
old. (story courtesy Michelle Knoll, Phillips Descendant, March 14 2001)
