Notes |
- In 1867, before his marriage to Elizabeth Gaston, Josiah Porter Nutter bought some ground on Stone Lick at the mouth of Horn Creek in Gilmer County, settled on it, and built a log cabin. After his marriage and after his children were born, Josiah built a large addition attached to the original log cabin to make a large two story family home. This home was occupied continuously by Josiah and his descendants from 1867 until Dec 26 2011, when grandson Lane Bush Nutter died in the home. Both Josiah and Elizabeth also died in that home, and all of their children were born there. The exact location of the house is on Stone Lick at the mouth of Horn Creek, in Gilmer County. It is located within Gilmer County, but extremely close to both the Ritchie County line and the Doddridge County line, leading to much confusion. The current postal mailing address is 322 East Stone Lick Drive, Coxs Mills, WV, but the same house previously had an Auburn mailing address. Auburn is in Ritchie County, but the house is physically located in Gilmer County. [Diane Nutter, g-g-grandaughter of Josiah Porter Nutter]
