      William Guttason, also spelled Goddason
      William Guttason, also spelled Goddason, finally corrupted to Gutterson, held a share of Plum Island 1644 and was probably a fisherman, but little is known of him.

      !AFN: 8GXD-DT !BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
      !AFN: 8GXD-DT !BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION: Not much is known about William Gutterson. He held a share of Plum Island in 1644 and possibly was a fisherman. He was a Freeman in Ipswich in 1648, which means he was at least 20 at that timena and could not have been born later than 1628. He was on the list of Ipswich inhabitants who at a meeting on 19 Dec 1648 subscribed to raising funds for Major Denison, which is the reason he is believed to be a Freeman on that date. On 24 Apr 1646 he was witness of the will of Joseph Morese of Newbury, MA. !CONSIDER OTHER POSSIBLE BIRTH LOCALES: In the IGI, the most common locations for finding the surname Gutterson are Lincoln and Northumberland. None come up under the Channel Islands category, but some LDS have used "Isle of Jersey, England" for the probable birthplace of William Gutterson. Extracted records indicate that there was a William Gutterson christened 14 Dec 1617 in Blyton, Lincoln, England and another William christened 4 Mar 1620 in Wragby, Lincoln, England. A William Gutterson and and Elizabeth Cade were married in Yarburgh, Lincoln, England on 14 May 1644.
