Her death certificate spells her name Tracy, but her tombstone, like biographical sketches of her famous son Miller Reese Hutchison, say Tracie.
Findagrave Contributor Jim (J #47067416) says: "Tracie's sister Sue wrote in a family genealogy (c. 1926-7) that her sister's name was Tracy. But - if you don't want to change the memorial, that's fine... it's not a sticking point for me."
She married William Peter Hutchison and they were living at Montrose, Baldwin County, Alabama, when son Miller Reese Hutchson was born in 1876. They moved to Mobile soon after 1880 and lived at 908 Government Street for several years, the Roberts-Pillans house, which they rented from Dr. Edmund Pendleton Gaines and wife Sarah Jane Toulmin Gaines (Gulfport Daily Herald, April 14, 1915, p.4).
Dr. Miller Reese Hutchison, inventor of the hearing aid, among other things, was educated in "the private schools of Mobile, Ala., from 1883-1889" and at Marion Military Institute, Marion, Ala., (1889-'91), Spring Hill (Ala.) College, (1891-'92), the University Military Institute (Mobile) (1892-'95), finally completing his collegiate studies at the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, now Auburn University (1895-'97). He took out his first patent at age 16 (1892). He later became Engineering Advisor to Thomas A. Edison.
