Jane Hutton1,2,3

b. 28 January 1814, d. 11 October 1892
FatherMoses Hutton1,3 b. 4 Dec 1784, d. 27 Sep 1849
MotherJane (?)1 b. 1790, d. 6 Jan 1819
Birth28 Jan 1814 Jane Hutton was born on 28 Jan 1814.4 
Marriage27 Jan 1831 She married Augustus M. Wedding, son of Abednego Wedding and Rebecca Johnson, on 27 Jan 1831 in Washington County, Virginia.5,6 
  Jane's name was apparently recorded as Sarah when the Rev. McEwen's marriages for 1829-1831 were reported to the courthouse on May 30th, 1831. Her name may have been recorded in error by either the minister or the clerk copying the original record. It is also possible she was known as Sarah during the lifetime of her mother, who was also a Jane. However, no other original document has been found by this researcher which refers to her as anything other than Jane.7  
Cens-18401840  Jane and Augustus left Virginia sometime between 1836 and 1839 based on the location of birth noted years later for their daughters Eleanor and Mary. The 1840 census recorded Augustus in Montgomery township, Owen County, Indiana. The household also included a 20-29 year old female [Jane] and 2 females under 5 [Eleanor and Mary].8 
  What is not apparent from the census is that the couple had 2 additional daughters who died in 1838 and 1839. 
Cens-185029 Aug 1850 In 1850 the family was enumerated living in Warren township, Putnam County, Indiana. Their residence was noted by the census taker as "hotel". Besides Augustus and Jane the household included Eleanor (14), Mary (11), William (9), Sarah (7), Albert (5) and John (2).9 
Cens-186026 Jul 1860  In the mid 1850s the family moved again, this time settling in Middle Fork township, Macon County, Missouri. Four additional children had been added to the family between 1850 and 1860: James, Inez, Laura and Josephas. [Daughter Eleanor had died in 1854]10 
Cens-187028 Jul 1870  Ten years later they were again recorded on Middle Fork township where Augustus farmed land valued at $600 and owned personal property worth $800.11 
  Again the family had lost a child in the intervening decade; their youngest son having died in 1865. 
Death11 Oct 1892 Jane died on 11 Oct 1892 in Randolph County, Missouri, at age 78.12 
Burial She was buried at Old Salem Cumberland Presbyterian Cemetery in Randolph County, Missouri.2
