Mr. Cutler was married December 25, 1857, to Laura R., daughter of John Sherburn and Lucy (Jewett) Stevens of Gilford, N. H. She died many years since, leaving no children, and Mr. Cutler was again married to Mrs. Fannie Pierce Wolcott of Tallmadge who died about eight years since.

The following is quoted from a local newspaper: "A Christian gentleman of the best quality has at last taken farewell of Tallmadge and Summit county. His attainments were sound; his talents, while not brilliant, Were eminently respectable and useful. His personal character, tested through many years and in many relations, was distinguished by simplicity, purity, honesty, fidelity, and friendliness."
