William McCutcheon

Notes:

There is some confusion about the various people named William and Samuel McCutchan (or McCutcheon) in 18th century Augusta County, Virginia. (At one point, Augusta County covered most of central, south, and west Virginia, including what is now West Virginia, and parts of Kentucky.) This William appears to have been involved in two significant battles - the Battle of Bushy Run in 1863, which was part of Pontiac's Rebellion, and the Battle of Point Pleasant in 1774, (where other ancestors of mine figured more prominently), which was part of what is called Lord Dunmore's war, and is where he recieved posthumous credit by the DAR as a solier in the American Revolution.

I believe that, as teenagers, he and his wife, Eleanor Fulton, both lived in Beverly ManorI believe that both Wm and Eleanor grew up in Beverly Manor - a housing development dating from the 1730's outside Staunton. VA.
