8. [S104] Dutton, Stephen, 1810 Census Chester, VT, although the male in this houshold age 16 to under 26 fits Stephen's son Levi, there is a Levi Dutton who is a head of family in Chester in this census that I believe to be Stephen's son; I speculate that this male 16-25 is Thirza's husband Solomon Fish, although he was actually 28 years old.
