Charles McCutchan was the son of Samuel McCutchan/en and Frances Jeanette Noble. "He was a soldier in the Revolutionary War" yet his name is not on the D.A.R. Memorial's copper tablet here. He was also there during the earlier French and Indian War.

I have found his name spelled many ways including: McCutchen, McCutcheon, and McCutchan, etc.

1) 1902, Lyman Chalkley's Chronicles of the Scotch-Irish Settlement in VA, Vol. II, page 394 (not 334 as on Ancestry's Rootsweb site, typo), lists the Inscriptions on Tombstones at the Glebe Graveyard on the Farm of Thomas Thompson in Augusta County, VA. in 1902. It includes: "Charles McCutchan, born 1736; died June 29th, 1814."

My deductions about his gravestone: I note the 1902 survey of the Glebe does not list the graves in alphabetical order, letting me assume they are grouped this way: Col. Jno Willson & wife (see group photo on Susannah B. McCutchan's page. Willson is in the upper Left), 5 McCutchans: Susanna (group photo), R. John (group photo), Charles (probably illegible marker), Isabella (group photo), Samuel (?); Mary Trimble & Jno Trimble (group photo). In other words all these people are together in the group photo, except Samuel McCutchan, this Charles McCutchan and Mary Trimble. Rebecca McCutchan's is nearby, I am trying to comfirm it's exact location. Her son Samuel McCutchan, should be beside hers.

VASSAR's Master Spreadsheet of Revolutionary War Veterans says he was a soldier in the war, is buried at the Glebe Burying Ground and gives no other military data.

"Charles McCutchan
born 1736
died June 29 1814"

The transcription below was from the Glebe Burying Ground 1749, Stones Copied by Major M. A. Murphy and Mrs. W. W. King, Sketch Compiled by Mrs. M. M. (wife of William Wayt AKA Fannie Stratten Bayly) King for Colonel Thomas Hughart Chapter Staunton, Virginia, 1934 (note the fancy script of the 12 unnumbered page booklet, appears to say Mrs. "M. M." King instead). It recorded:
Charles McCutcheon
Born 1736
Died June 29, 1814
