Ironically, my name is James Hutton and my big sister is called Lauren Hutton. So my is answer is yes they're related, and my question is how do you know about my family!!?!
In a nutshell, the works of James Hutton and Charles Lyell served to show Darwin that evolution actually took place. Based on their notions that the earth was consistently changing, Darwin saw that living things were evolving too.
The Theory of Actualism, which was put forward by Hutton, helped Charles Darwin in his research as he studied evolution of fossils. Darwin's work was also influenced by many other geologists apart from Hutton.
Charles Lyell incorporated the thinkings of James Hutton into a theory called uniformitarianism. He said that the geologic processes that are occurring in the world today were occurring in the past as well at the same rate. Darwin applied this principle of gradualism to biological evolution
The age of the Earth was the idea changed by the work of James Hutton and Charles Lyell. Charles Lyell incorporated Hutton's thinking into his principle uniformitarianism, which stated that mechanisms of change are constant over time.

James Hutton, often referred to as the "father of modern geology," contributed to Darwin's theory of evolution by introducing the concept of deep time and uniformitarianism. His idea that the Earth was shaped by slow, gradual processes over millions of years provided a temporal framework that allowed for the gradual evolution of species. This notion of an ancient Earth, capable of undergoing significant change, was crucial for Darwin, who needed a long timeline to explain the gradual process of natural selection and the diversification of life. Hutton's work laid the groundwork for understanding geological processes that paralleled biological evolution.
