Biography

Susannah (Powers?) Hutchinson

Submitted by: Lynne Hindman (Coombs) Holcomb

I have a great, great, great grandmother named Susannah Hutchinson who is listed in the 1820 U.S. Census, Vigo County and the 1830 U.S. Census for Vermillion County IN.  She has been transcribed by one person as Jeremiah Hutchinson in the 1820 Vigo Census.  She is buried in the very old part of Helt's Cemetery.  I have a picture of the stone with her name and date of death.  She was born 1780 in possibly Vermont and died April of 1830 in Helt's Prairie, Indiana.  She is not only a true "Pioneer of Indiana", but the mother of one of your noted citizens, Volney Hutchinson who married Mary Jane Armstrong (Denehie).  Volney had a sister named Viola who married Thomas Aldridge or Oldridge.  We have many pictures and documents of Volney and Mary Jane's descendents.
