This is the brief story of the surname, Nutspittle. There was a man
named,
John George Nutspittle. He
was born in 1779 in Germany
under the
presumed name, Johann Georg Nußpickel (Nusspickel).
There is, unfortunately, nothing documented
as to
when he came to America.
The first
documents
finding the name,
"Nutspittle" is found in
the
Register of
Marriage in
1808. He and his wife had
four girls and two boys.
He died in 1829.
Almost twenty years later his oldest child,
Francis, led the
act to change the surname from Nutspittle to a new
name.
Francis'
brother,
Jacob (above photo),
concurred. All of their
unmarried
sisters
and
their mom changed their surnames as well.
On May 10, 1848, the surname, Nutspittle, was gone
and the family forever enacted the
surname, Nourse.
