James Hutchinson was born during 1835 in Clogher, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. It is possible that his father's name was John Hutchinson. On December 14, 1858 in Clogher, James married Jane Reed (also spelled in records as Reid and Read), daughter of John and Jane (Thompson) Reed of Tycanny, County Tyrone (roughly 3 miles north-east of Clogher). They had 4 daughters and 3 sons.
Their son Charles Reed Hutchinson was born on December 11, 1864 in Clogher. Charles reached the port of Philadelphia on May 29, 1887.
On April 5, 1898 Charles married Margaret Ella Trego, daughter of James and Catherine (Snyder) Trego of Honey Brook Township, PA. They had 2 sons, Charles Christopher and Ernest LeRoy, and 2 daughters, Mildred Ella and Florence.
Their son Ernest was born on April 26, 1903. He married Jean Houston, daughter of Frank and Jennie (Avery) Houston. Jean's grandfather Gavin Houston was Scottish immigrant from Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland.
Jean and Ernest with Granddaughters
Jean's mother Jennie Avery was descended from the Groton, CT Averys, after which Avery Point was named. Jean's father Frank's mother was descended from the Dyer family of Wyndham, CT and Weymouth, MA.

A PRELIMINARY GENEALOGY OF THE DYAR FAMILY.
The name Dyer is a common one in America, but only rarely has the modification of the spelling into Dyar taken place. The only instance of importance that is known to me is that occurring in the line here partially treated, which took place about the year 1700.
The name is an old English one, formerly spelled Dyer or Dyre. Dyers were settled in Gastonbury, Somersetshire, before the Conquest. After the defeat of the Saxons at Senlac, near Hastings, Siward Dyer and his two sons, Siward Beam and Wright, returned to Gastonbury. Siward Dyre was Earl of Northumbria about 1036. He was descended from Alfred the Great, and is said to have been the original of the Siward of Shakespeare's " Macbeth." Sir James Dyer, of Round Hill, Somersetshire, was Speaker of the House of Commons and
Chief Judge of the Court of Common Pleas in the time of Queen Elizabeth. He died at Staunton, Hunterdonshire, in 15S1, without issue, the baronetcy descending to a nephew. Sir
Richard Dyer, of Wincanton, Somersetshire, is also mentioned. The last of the baronets of Great Staughton, descended from him, died in 1776, and the representation of the baronetcy passed to America, but has not been claimed. Several Dyers came from England to America in the very early days of colonization. It is with Thomas Dyer, of Shipton Mallett, near Gastonbury, Somersetshire, that the line here traced starts. He came to New England about 1635 and settled in Weymouth, Massachusetts.
FIRST GENERATION.
1. Thomas Dyer, 1612-1676.
Born at Shepton Mallett, in Somersetshire, near Gastonbury, in England, in 1612. He came to New England in 1632 according to one record, though it was probably later, but before 1640.
Agnes Reed,* whom he had courted in England, moved to America with her parents, and Thomas went down to the ship to say farewell, but was induced to accompany them, which he did without returning to take leave of his own family. He married Agnes Reed in 1640, settled in Weymouth, Mass., where his eight children were horn. His wife died December 4, 1667.
He married again Elizabeth Frasy, who was a widow before marriage and outlived him. He was a cloth worker by trade. Was freeman in Weymouth in 1644, a deacon in the church under the Rev. Samuel Torrey, and died November 6, 1676, leaving " a very good estate" (£2103 14 7) to his widow, children, and each of his grandchildren. The will of Elizabeth Dyer, his widow, who died December 19, 167S (will probated at Boston, 1679), mentions her son, Abraham Harding, daughters, Elizabeth Addams and Prudence. Her son, John Harding, of Medfield, and Joseph Dyer, of Weymouth, were executors.
