MANY MOURN FOR MR. FRED. SUTTON
Camden Post-Telegram
Haddonfield Man Who Went Down With Titanic in Numerous Corporations
---
BUDGET OF GOSSIP FROM THE BOROUGH
---
As no word has been received concerning Frederick Sutton, of
Haddonfield, it seems certain that he perished along with hundreds of other passengers on board the great Titanic beneath the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Mrs. Francis Tomlin, his daughter, and her husband, Dr. Tomlin, J. Fithian Tatem and other friends went to New York vainly hoping to find him among the survivors landed by the Carpathia.
Mr. Sutton was born in England in 1855, and came to this country when he was twenty years old. He founded the firm of Sutton & Vansant, coffee importers. Several years after moving to Haddonfield he married Miss Ella Underdown, daughter of William Underdown, a former cashier of the Mechanics National Bank. His first residence was on Fowler avenue, but he later moved to Mansion avenue. Largely interested in seashore property, he was also president of the First National Bank, of Collingswood, and the Marine National Bank, of Wildwood, both thriving institutions. He held the office of treasurer in the following corporations: Wildwood Hotel Company, Five Mile Beach Electric Company, West Jersey Electric Company, North Wildwood Electric Company. His loss is mourned by a host of friends.
