John Sutton was born at Plattekill, Ulster county, New York, in 1833, died June, 1898, at Coeymans, Albany county, New York. Mr. Sutton was educated in the country schools of his native town, and learned the brick maker's trade, and eventually engaged in the manufacture of brick. His connection with this industry continued until the close of the civil war, or about that time, when he sold out, purchased a farm, and engaged in several interests connected with the cultivation of the land, and agriculture in general. He followed this occupation for about twenty years, and then in 1886 or 1885 he settled in Coeymans, New York, and again engaged in the manufacture of brick. He was a strict churchman, and a trustee and steward of the Glasco Methodist Church, for a number of years. He was a layman in the Methodist Episcopal church and licensed to preach. He also assisted in revival services in his neighborhood. He was a Prohibitionist, and intensely interested in the cause of temperance, a man of high character, and a thorough Christian. He married Phoebe, born in 1835, died in 1893, daughter of Jefferson Halstead, of Plattekill. - Genealogies of the State of New York Vol II page 691
