James H. Tutt was a native of Virginia; he was born in Fauquier County, Jan. 21, 1830 and died in March 1898. He came to Missouri with his parents, Phillip A. and Catherine (Ashby) Tutt, in 1835. The family first settled in Calloway County and in 1836 came to Cooper County, and settled in Kelly township on the farm that is now owned by Charles P. Tutt. Phillit Tutt bought this place from Thomas Best for $5 per acre. At that time there was a log cabin on the place and a few acres of land were cleared. Here Phillip Tutt and his wife spent the remainder of their lives. Phillip Tutt was a surveyor, and for a number of years served as surveyor of Cooper County. He also held the office of judge of the County Court. He was a soldier in the War of 1812 and his father, John Tutt, was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, serving with the Virginian troops.Phillip Tutt was one of four brothers who came to Missouri together, the others being Dr. Gabriel, Col. John, and Col. Richard J. They came down the Kanawha River to the Ohio in a boat, and from there the younger men of the families and the negro slaves drove across the country to St. Louis with a wagon train, while the women and the older men came by steamboat down the Ohio and up the Mississippi Rivers to St. Louis. When the Tutt family came to Missouri they brought with them a mare which was a descendant of the famous running horse, "imported Whip," and Charles P. Tutt still has on his place descendants of that animal.
