      The ancestors of Susannah SUTTLE have been well documented there and it seems unnecessary to duplicate that information on this page.

      Silas L. Suttle. Among the many old and prominent citizens of Washington County, who have lived long and honorable lives, and whose early existence was one of privation and trouble, not one is more worthy of mention than Silas L. Suttle, who was born in North Carolina in 1810, and who is the son of George P. and Susan Suttle. The parents
      were both natives of North Carolina, and in this State they both died about 1816. The father was a tiller of the soil and a hard-working, industrious man. His son, Silas, was left an orphan at the youthful age of six years, and was taken and reared by his uncle. At a very early age he was obliged to start out for himself, and although meeting with many discouragements, had the energy and perseverance to
      stick to whatever he undertook, and to-day is in very comfortable circumstances. In his twenty-first year he married, in her seventeenth year, Miss Rebeck a Elrod, of Tennessee, daughter of Peter and Nancy Elrod, and to this union were born twelve children, six now living:
      Ewing Greenbery, John L., Adaline F. M., Mary, Caroline and Silas L., Jr. Mr. Suttle commenced life by farming in Tennessee, but left that State in 1840 and moved to Arkansas. and located in Madison County, where he remained fifteen years. He then went to Missouri, and remained in that State for eight months, or until the war broke out.
      In 1861 he enlisted in Company C, Hunter's regiment, Confederate army, in which he served until the close of the war, and, lthough he was in three noted battles, he escaped without a scar. After the war he returned to Arkansas, settling in Madison County, but in 1868 moved to Washington County, where he is living at the present time, and where
      he and F. M. have 163 acres of land, which is well improved and about eighty under cultivation. Mr. Suttle joined the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in 1841; was licensed to preach in 1843, and ordained as minister in that church in 1845. He has been a local preacher ever since. Mrs. Suttle is also a member of the same church.
      Mr. Suttle is a member of the Masonic fraternity, and is also a member of the Farmers' Alliance.
