Researching Tuttle Thomas Conant,Lived in Sugar Creek TWP, lived in area of Tuttle School,Swamp School, Tuttle helped in organizing The Andersons Homeguard, a group of volunteers who guarded the local area, they were called into service during the Civil War for Morgan's Raid, but saw no action and returned back home, Rumer is they had trouble with a group called Knights of the Round Circle which were a group of Rebels that banded together to fight on their own or something like that they were not part of a organized Government Group,But it was never proven that they were in Greenfield area. Tuttle and the Anderson family came to Sugarcreek around the early 1850's ,from Cincinnati Ohio, Thomas Tuttle was said to have built the first Steam Run saw Mill in
Greenfield Indiana Tuttle and Andersons started a petition to build a rode that would lead to the Michigan state road by way of the Brookville road,or something like that,It was said to have been called the Tuttle Road for a long time, Have not been able to confirm that though. Tuttle was a prominent figure in Sugar Creek,The Governor was said to meet with Thomas many times for advice concerning the Local Home Guards. I would love to hear from anyone who knows about any of this, I am just writing this off the top of my head from things I have seen and heard. Bye 4 now,I also just wanted to post on our new site address. Bye 4 now.Thomas Conant Tuttle was my GGGreat Grandpa
