Peggy's comments:
According to the 1860 census, George Cutter was born in Germany and would have been 25 in 1863.  In 1860, his brother William was working and living with the Burgess family.  
Jane Shedd was Julia's niece (the daughter of Sarah Cutler Dawes and Henry Dawes, sister to Rufus, Ephraim, Kate and Lucy).  Jane was the wife of a missionary and lived in Persia.
