Thank you for answering my query.
You said that Elizabeth, daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth (Spires) Butt, gave her father's birthplace as Pennsylvania and her mother's birthplace as Maryland. But what did Samuel Butt report as his birthplace in the earlier censuses: 1850, 1860 and 1870? And what did her mother report as her birth place?
My interest in this family is that my ancestor, Regnal N. Butt, was most likely a brother of Samuel's. Regnal married in Adams County, Ohio in 1816 but then moved to Indiana about 1822 along with the huge extended family of his wife, Anna Mann.
In trying to identify parents of Regnal, I am looking at all the other Butt young people who married about the same time in Brown/Adams County.
The only "child" of Samuel and Elizabeth Butt that I have is Aaron Butt b. ca 1811. Would you be willing to post the other eleven children and their birth dates - if you know them?
Thank you.
