Hi Lisa

Yes, David Utter in Beardstown is my cousin.
We are still in touch. My grandfather was
Roy Arthur Utter, son of John David. My
father is John William Utter, now residing
in Salina Kansas. David's father, my Uncle Don, is also still residing in Beardstown. I vaguely remember visiting Joh David Utter when I was very young. Roy Utter died in 1963 . I believe. I have not heard from my brother Tim for several months. A few years ago, before internet times, he had researched family history to a great extent. I am still trying to locate hime again.
Thank you and keep in touch. There are Utters throughout phone books at many locations in southern Illinois, yet I have very little information regarding any connections.
