Please see rationale at Talk:Lunt Silversmiths. --CPAScott 14:57, 17 August 2006 (UTC) This is an additional bit of imformation on the Ohio Territory connection with Moulton. The Tilton family having arrived in the late 1630's in New England in one of the mass Puritan emmigarations from England settled on land along Buffalo Creek, Ohio County, Virginia which was later confirmed by a deed issued By Governor Patrick Henry.They then moved further west to the west bank of the Ohio River and settled near Marietta. The Tilton family is creditted as being the first non Indian family of record in the Ohio Territory, approximately in 1766. Likely they would have known the Moultons as Tiltonsville and Marietta are not too far from each other. I am a direct descendent of the Tilton family and still live in Ohio.Information exurpted from a book "Tilton Territory: A Historical Narrative--Warren Township, Jefferson County, Ohio published in 1977 and written by Robert H.
