William Sutton was a North East (of England) songwriter/poet of the eighteenth/nineteenth century, possibly born (or living) in Stockton.
According to (Sir) Cuthbert Sharp in his The Bishoprick Garland William Sutton wrote : -
- in praise of Stockton, for 1764[1] - which also appears in Ritson’s book “Bishopric Garlands”
- a new song for 1764[2] - which also appears in Rhymes of Northern Bards by John Bell (junior).[3]
