I have an interest in the Elizabeth Butler mentioned in the Johnson family
below. I have been trying for many years to assemble the Snow Hill Butlers.
On my direct line, I have assembled a 90 page document, complete with
obituaries, original land, census and military records. There is more than
one connection to the Johnsons from the Butlers. If anyone has any Eastern
Shore Butler connections, no matter how small, I'd like to hear from you,
even if it's just by marriage.
