Randy,

Do you know where any of your Knapp / Cutters are buried? If you need any headstone pictures, I'll get them for you.

Thank you,

Russ

Your Elizabeth Williams is actually Elizabeth (---). See the article: Was Elizabeth, Wife of Richard Cutter of Cambridge, Massachusetts a daughter of Robert Williams of Roxbury? by Marsha Hoffman Rising, The American Genealogist 74:292-298. She comes to the conclusion: no.

WOW! WOW! WOW! I'm from William and Rebbeca Rolfe Cutter through Deacon John Cutter. Martin is right about Elizabeth Cutter. I got a lot of my Cutter info from A History of the Cutter Family of North America by Benjamin Cutter and Dennis B. Cutter. You can use Google books to find a copy of the book.
