Jennie McCutcheon began genealogical work in 1969 and traced McCutcheon roots to before the Civil War. Her extended family spans 35 states with authors, highway officials, ministers, and a tavern hostess who served President James Monroe in 1817.

The community was founded in 1819 by Charles McCutchan-Johnstone of Ireland, later shortened to McJohnston, who settled 3,500 acres with eight children.
