Biography/Pictures
In 1719 Daniel was member of the board of freeholders. As late as 1729 he is noted as living at Piscataway, but in 1736, when he serves as an executor of his brother Richard's estate, he is said to be a resident of Somerset County.
He is probably the man who was dismissed from the Piscataway Baptist Church in 1752, and admitted the same year to the Morristown Baptist Church, where his death is recorded in 1761. His age was 79 years. When we consider the place of residence of his sons, and the fact that he attended church in Morristown, it seems beyond doubt that his Somerset County property was located in Bernard township, near Basking Ridge, where, as we learn from the Elizabethtown Bill in Chaucery, some one of the Suttons had located prior to February 1729-1730. As late as 1735 this part of the country was almost unbroken wilderness. exerpt from "Geneological Notes of the Sutton Family of New Jersey" by Edward F. H. Sutton, New York, T. A.
