Some of the following is taken from "A history of the Cutter family of New England : the compilation of the late Dr. Benjamin Cutter" at
http://www.archive.org/stream/historyofcutterf00cu...tterf00cutt_djvu.txt

More information is contained in the above, than the following summary:

“Richard, the younger son of Elizabeth, very likely was a voyager in the ship with his mother when she emigrated about the year 1640. He was probably under twenty years of age at the time of his arrival, and unmarried. He was a cooper by trade, and the small oaken chest, made to keep his clothes when apprenticed, is now the property of the writer.

“Richard became entitled to suffrage in the election of the colonial magistrates by his admission as freeman, June 2, 1641. The privilege was earnestly desired by every man, and all freemen at that period were required to be " orthodox, members of the church, twenty years old, and worth £200." The oath sworn at admission required them to be " true and faithful " subjects of the Commonwealth, to "yield assistance and. support thereunto" with person and estate "maintain and preserve" all her "liberties and privileges;" submit to her "wholesome laws;" never "plot nor practise" evil against her; nor " consent to any that shall so do," but " timely discover and reveal the same to lawful authority, for the speedy preventing thereof." Moreover, tliey solemnly bound themselves "in the sight of God," that whenever called to give their voice " touching any such matter of the state " wherein freemen were to deal, they would give their " vote and suffrage " as they judged in their own consciences might best " conduce and tend to the public weal of the body " without respect of persons or favor of man.

“He became a member of the Artillery Company in 1643. This association, formed in 1637, met for improvement in discipline and tactics ; and comprised the leaders and officers of the volunteer " train-bands," and the principal magistrates and citizens. "The first regularly organized company in America, " it may be considered the germ from which all our military character in New England, if not in the United States, has sprung; " and exists still under the name of the "Ancient and Honorable Artillery" of Boston. "'

“Richard Cutter was a member of Cambridge church in full communion,t and the follov/ing relation of his religious experience is found in Mr. Shepard's manuscript volume :

“About 1644, Richard married his wife, Elizabeth, whose surname is (at the time original article was written) unknown. Her tombstone is one of the oldest now standing in the ancient burying ground at old Cambridge:

Here lyes ye Body of
Elizabeth Cutter wife to
Richard Cutter aged
about 42 Years died
March 5 1661.

“Richard’s residence wa in Menotomy, but its exact location is a matter of conjecture. He requeted to be buried in “Cambridg burying-place” and near his first wife’s grave. His monumental tones are in the western part of the yard, about eight paces distant from the marble obelisk of “Livermore, Wilder and heafe.” The inscription is:

Here lyes ye Body of
Richard Cutter
Aged about 72
Years died ye 16 of
Jun 1693.

Transcripts of his will and inventory are included in the above reference.
