Early Origins of the Stutes family
The surname Stutes was first found in Northamptonshire where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor of Stoteberie. Conjecturally, they are descended from either Hugh, Landric or Odbert who held the lands of Stotebury at the time of the taking of the Domesday Book survey in 1086 A.D. They held the lands from Giles the brother of Ansculf, a Norman noble whom received the grant from Duke William of Normandy for his assistance at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 A.D.

Migration of the Stutes family
To escape the uncertainty of the political and religious uncertainty found in England, many English families boarded ships at great expense to sail for the colonies held by Britain. The passages were expensive, though, and the boats were unsafe, overcrowded, and ridden with disease. Those who were hardy and lucky enough to make the passage intact were rewarded with land, opportunity, and social environment less prone to religious and political persecution. Many of these families went on to be important contributors to the young nations of Canada and the United States where they settled. Stutess were some of the first of the immigrants to arrive in North America: Henry StottBerry who landed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1733.
