    Notes:

    Founded Cutter Laboratories, Fresno CA -- later moved to Berkeley. Pharmaceutical company carried on by his son, Robert Kennedy Cutter

    From, The Cutter Incident: How America's First Polio Vaccine Led to the Growing Vaccine Crisis by Paul A Offit, Yale University Press, Sep 1, 2007.
    ----
    P. 72:
    Cutter Laboratories was founded by Edward Ahern Cutter. The son and grandson of physicians and community leaders, EA Cutter was born and raised in Sutton Quebec, a small village south of Montreal. When he was eighteen years old EA moved to Traver California, in Joaquin Valley, to become an apprentice pharmacist. In the late 1800's Traver was a down alive with commerce and energy, but when the rail line that would later become the Santa Fe Railroad was built on the east side of the valley, Traver deteriorated badly. So, EA Moved to San Jacinto, California, where he bought a small drugstore in the center of town. At the back of the store, in a room approximately eight feet by eight feet, he set up a laboratory. The laboratory served local doctors by performing tests on blood and urine.

    In 1897, at age twenty-seven, EA Cutter moved from San Jacinto to Fresno, California, married and bought another drugstore - the first in town to have an ice cream parlor. Again EA set up a diagnostic laboratory in the back and called it Cutter Analytic Laboratory. ....
    ----

    In 1903 Cutter Analytic Laboratory moved from Fresno to Berkeley and became Cutter Laboratories. one of the first pharmaceutical companies in the United States, Cutter's flagship product was black leg vaccine.

    Cutter Labs faced several challenges, the most newsworthy incident involved tainted polio vaccine that was recalled, but not until over a hundred thousand doses had been administered. The exposure is blamed for 56 polio cases and 5 deaths. Cutter Labs was not found guilty of negligence but was successfully sued for breach of implied warranty.
    As with any incident of this magnitude, there were many factors involved. The Cutter family took this issue quite personally and successfully changed their procedures and processes, providing quality pharmaceutical products for many years. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutter_Laboratories
    Cutter Labs was sold to Bayer in 1974.

    "FREDERICK A CUTTER M. D. of SUTTON
    One of the best known men in the county of Brome is Frederick Augustus Cutter a medical practitioner here for fifty years. He dates his birth at New Ipswich Hillsboro county NH being a son of Moody and Henrietta (Fisher) Cutter, both of New England origin. His father was a lawyer, and when the son was five years old the family removed to Stoddard, Chesshire county, in the same state where Moody Cutter practiced his profession until his death at forty-five years of age.

    Dr Cutter was educated in district schools, and in the medical department of Dartmouth college Hanover NH, receiving his diploma in 1829 and settling in Sutton in December of that year making a little more than half a century since he opened an office here. In the earlier years of his practice, his rides extended over a considerable portion of what is now the county of Brome and into two townships in the county of Missisquoi. Up to a few years ago his practice was large and remunerative; latterly he has aimed to curtail it, and now he rarely goes into the country, unless sent for with a carriage. Considering his age and the hardships he has endured, he is a well preserved man, with a perfectly erect form, and considerable endurance. Probably no man in the neighborhood is more highly respected.

    Dr. Cutter has been a commissioner of the Commissioners' Court for thirty five years, a justice of the peace perhaps half as long; was at one period a town councilor; was for seven years secretary of the school corporation of the township of Sutton, and was appointed a coroner, and to take depositions in the Superior Court, but never qualified for the former office and has done no business in the latter.

    Dr Cutter is a member of the Evangelical Advent Church at Sutton and served for years as its clerk. His moral character stands far above reproach.

    He has been married twice the first time in 1830 to Miss HP Butterfield of Stoddard NH who died in 1840 after having given birth to four children. Only one of them Reuben M Cutter who is employed in the Sutton Railway office is now living. His second marriage was in 1842, to Miss Mary A Jackman of Sutton, who has been the mother of four sons and four daughters, three of each still living. Frederic Augustus Cutter, Jr. is a physician and surgeon a graduate of McGill College, Montrea,l and of the Bellevue Hospital Medical College, N.Y., and a leading man in his profession at Sutton. Their son, Henry is in California and George is at home. The three daughters have all been married, and one of them, Eveline, is the widow of Whiting R. Ball and living at Boulton, P.Q. The other two, Mrs. William O. Regan and Mrs. George Wood, reside in Sutton.

    When Dr. Cutter settled in his present home, there were not more than three or four miles of made road in the township, and no bridge across the river in the village of Sutton, except in sleighing time. He rode on horse-back until about twenty years ago, and in fording streams and finding his way through the woods, often had not only hard but perilous rides. He cannot "shoulder his crutch and tell how fields were won," but he can explain how swollen streams were crossed fifty years ago.

    From the book: Contributions to the history of the Eastern Townships: a work containing an account of the early settlement of St. Armand, Dunham, Sutton, Brome, Patton, and Bolton; with a history of the principal events that have transpired in each of these townships up to the present time

    "The first public house in Sutton was opened in 1840 by Dr FA Cutter in the building now used for the same purpose by A Hunt. Dr Cutter has been a physician here for many years and from his extensive practice and long residence has considerable influence in the township He has held municipal offices and is at present a justice of the peace.

    Frederic married Jackman, Mary Ann on 10 Feb 1842 in Sutton Flatt, District of Bedford, Quebec, Canada. Mary (daughter of Jackman, Winthrop True and Elkins, Mark) was born on 31 Jul 1824 in Cornith, Orange, VT, USA; died on 31 May 1911 in Sutton Flatt, District of Bedford, Quebec, Canada.

    Notes:

    From WeRelate.org:
    CAUTION!! The relationship between Mary Ann & Winthrop T Jackman is probable but not proven. They both lived in Sutton, QC and Mary Ann married Dr. F.A. Cutter and their son Dr. F. A. Cutter Jr. married Elizabeth Ahern and one of their sons was named Winthrop Jackman Cutter. See note under F. A.
    The note attached to FA cutter reads:
    2002 From Heritage Sutton, Nov. 30, 2002: In a further search (in F.A. Cutter Sr. obit) we have found that Frederick Augustus Cutter Sr. (1805-1888), a prominent Sutton personage, was married (second marriage) in 1840 to Miss Mary A. Jackman, daughter of Captain W. J. Jackman of Corinth, Vermont.
