Abraham Ruttan (1658-1713), a Huguenot, immigrated (probably via Germany) to Ulster County, New York, and married Marie Petilion (Piteljon) in 1680. In 1699 they moved to New Barbadoes, Essex County, New Jersey. William Ruttan (1710-1794), a grandson, married Maria Demarest, and most of their ten children immigrated as United Empire Loyalists from Scraalenburgh, New Jersey to Adolphustown Township, Lennox County, Ontario in 1783 and 1784. Descendants and relatives lived in Ontario, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and elsewhere. Some descendants immigrated to New York, Michigan, California and elsewhere in the United States.
