The son of Castlemaine gaol warder William Sutton (1838-1912),[2][3] and Hannah Sutton (1837-1930), née Howe,[4][5] Harvey Vincent Sutton was born at Castlemaine on 18 February 1882.

His older brother Edmund Hamilton "Ned" Sutton (1868-1911) played VFA football for both Carlton (1888-1889) and Melbourne (1895-1896), and also played with Melbourne (and was the team's captain) in its first two years in the VFL (1897 and 1898).
