"The Tutt Family of Virginia" Compiled by Augusta B. Fothergill about 1926 page 24-28
James-2 Tutt was a son of Richard-1 Tutt who lived in the present King George County before it was erected from Richmond County. It was certainly in the outskirts of civilization at that time but he soon moved on further into the district which was then being settled by adventurous persons who were being drawn into that section by offers of cheap lands belonging to the Fairfax family as well as to the Crown, much of the land having been granted for many years after this time.

The first proof of this James Tutt's living in the present Culpeper County is found in the Order Book 1735-51, page 182, King George County, when he as James Tutt of Orange County, attended Court for eight days as evidence for Samuel Oldham and was ordered to be paid for coming and going sixty miles and ferriage. This was at a Court held February 3rd, 1738. At the same session of Court he was sued by Nathaniel Holland but the case was continued and was reheard at the next session when he failed to appear and the Plaintiff was rewarded the amount sued for as the said James Tutt failed to appear at that session. This was doubtless because of his removal to Orange County - now Culpeper - and the distance was too great to pay to make the trip to defend the said suit.

After his removal to the outer settlements he patented some land according to land grants of record in Richmond. On August 9th, 1735, George II granted unto James Tutt 700 acres of land lying in Orange County on the south side of Muddy Run of the Great Fork of Rapahannock River. (Land patents, Volume XVI, page 121, Land Office, Richmond, Virginia)

In the year 1748, he patented 208 acres on Campbells branch of the Great Fork of the Rappahannock River, then in Orange County from Lord Fairfax who was the heir of Catherine, Lady Fairfax, who was a daughter and the only child of legitimate birth of Lord Culpeper who had been governor of Virginia and had taken up all of the land lying between the Rappahannock and Potomac Rivers. Much of this land had been granted by the various governors of the Colony which caused many long and expensive lawsuits concerning titles on both sides of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This grant was recorded in Northern Neck Grants, Volume G, 1747-51, page 179, dated 11th June 1749. At this time the land offfice was said to have been located in Winchester as the most of the then ungranted lands lay West of the mountains and Lord Fairfax was overseeing the business of granting them himself from about this time until his death in the year 1781 when he bequeathed the remainder of them to a nephew who sold them to a land company which was soon dissolved as the majority of the land had been paying quit rents on them as well as taxes.

This James Tutt seems not to have held as many of as prominent offices as his brother Richard of Spotsylvania did since there seem to be few instances cited in which he appears in the county records of Orange or Culpeper after that county was cut off from Orange. One instance was on May 27th, 1742, when he together with Phillip Clayton and James Pendleton returned the appraisement of the estate of John Hobson deceased of which David Kinkead was administrator. This is of record in Will Book 1, page 217, Orange County. This item helps to identify the family later by their place of residence as in the upper part of the county now known as Rappahannock County while the other branch of the family - Richard son of Colonel Richard Tutt of Spotsylvania - lived near the town of Culpeper on Muddy Run and Great Fork of the Rappahannock River.

In the year 1766 Richard-2 Tutt referred to his brother James in his will which was made and probated in Spotsylvania County, the said James then being a resident of Culpeper County where he had removed from King George.

In the year 1782, he paid tax on ten negro servants, seven horses and sixteen head of cattle. As James Tutt, Sr., he paid on 908 acres of land and in the year 1790 this had been divided among his sons as follows: Lewis Tutt - 350 acres, Gabriel - 350 acres and Hansford - 208 acres.
James-2 Tutt, brother of Richard-2 Tutt of Spotsylvania County, made his will in Culpeper County dated January 20th, 1786 which was probated September 21, 178. In it he mentioned his children as follows:

Benjamin, Mille Lynch, Elizabeth Sanders, Richard Tutt, Mary wife of John Tutt, Lewis and Gabriel Tutt, Ann wife of Paul Williams, Hansford; grand daughter Mille Tutt, and his wife Ann. (Will Book C, page 345, Culpeper County)
His inventory which was recorded on page 355 of the same volume was returned by James Tutt, Henry Stringfellow, Richard Yancy and amounted to the sum of 755 pounds current money. Some of the items are: 16 negroes, 4 beds and furniture, 8 chairs, 1 case of bottles, 1 pair of money scales, books, desk and book case , chest, chest of drawers, 1 watch, 3 horses, 10 head of sheep, 3 pewter basons, 3 dishes, 15 pewter plates, glass and earthen ware, surveyor's instruments, 17 head of cattle, 26 geese, 6 bee hives, and 15 head of hogs. 14 December 1789
This was quite an extensive estate for the period just following the Revolutionary War as Virginia was full of training camps for the soldiers as well as the central point between the fighting in the north and the far south so that her citizens were called upon for vast supplies which were confiscated when not willingly given over to the use of the army. Grains of all kinds, flour and corn meal, tobacco and brandy are the items most often noted as supplied by the planters, some of whom made application after the war when the Government gave notice of receiving, at stipulated sessions of court, of receiving statements of articles supplied or impressed from loyal citizens. Some stormy and some amusing law suits grew out of the government refusing to pay people of tory or loyal tendencies for supplies impressed at that time, the most notable one being in Campbell County in which Patrick Henry was prosecuting attorney and which is still talked of in that part of Virginia and around Lynchburg near which the trial took place.

Louis Carstarphen, 1964 page 2
His inventory mentions a "case of bottles" - in reality, a rosewood wine chest with six quart and six pint decanters - I have one of the pints - the rest were destroyed by fire before 1890.
