- ↑ 3.0 3.1 Spencer and Alexandra's son is named John, after Spencer's older brother. It seems plausible this is John Dutton II, who showed old age when he was out for a ride with his son early in the twenty-first century (as seen in the tenth and final episode of Yellowstone's second season, Sins of the Father). This would, however, make Tate Dutton a sixth-generation Dutton, when it comes to the family that settled in the Yellowstone vicinity, and therefore it is debatable if Spotted Eagle's seven-generation prediction was honored in the storyline the Yellowstone universe follows (see 1883 tenth and final episode This Is Not Your Heaven).
