DATA RELATING
TO THE
FAMILY IN ENGLAND.

INTRODUCTION.
The past few years have witnessed an increased interest in gene-
alogical work. Writing a family history, once generally regard-
ed as a pursuit of royal pedigree, has come to be a task, by no
means uninteresting in many an unpretentious family. As a plain
and comprehensive record of one's ancestors, not as incidental
steps back to some more or less illustrious person, does a family
history most truly serve its purpose.
This book is not a complete history of the Butts family. The
record begins with Thomas Butts, who came to this country from
Norfolk County, England, in 1660. To trace the genealogy of each
of his four children would be a task most difficult to accomplish,
and one which the duties of my profession would forbid me to
attempt. The name of Daniel Butts, page 31 (the fifth generation
from Thomas) marks the point at which this book begins to be a
complete record.
It was my original intention, when I had traced the genealogy
of all the descendants of Daniel Butts, to publish the work and to
call it " Daniel Butts, His Ancestors and His Descendants. "
While collecting the data, I obtained incidentally considerable
information about other branches of the family, and I decided to
include it in my work in the hope
that some other member of
the family might take it in hand and try to complete the various
lines. In order to make the title consistent, I changed the name
of the work to "John Butts, His Ancestors and Some of His
Descendants." John Butts was the first member of the family
to settle in Dutchess County, New York. The additional matter
5

to which I refer will be found in the last part of the book ; begin-
ning on page 86.
This work contains no record of the immediate ancestry of
Thomas Butts, the first member of the family to settle in America.
"The Visitation of Norfolk" (Norwich, 1878) contains a genealogy
of the Butts family on page 343. The same pedigree may be
found in " Kent Genealogies" (London, 1830), page 257. Both of
these works give generations of the Butts family extending
through
the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. I have made no
special effort to trace the ancestry of Thomas Butts, but have no
doubt that he could be connected with the old English record to
which I have referred. The family coat of arms which I have in-
serted is from " Kent Genealogies," page 257.
It remains to say a word about the sources from which my in-
formation relating to the family in America has been derived.
While my father was still living, I frequently
turned to him with
questions about the family. His death and the extreme age of
my great aunt, Mary Canfield, the only surviving child of Daniel
Butts, impressed upon me the fact that those, from whom authen-
tic information concerning the family could be obtained, were
rapidly passing away, and induced me to collect and put in permanent
form this genealogy of the branch of the family to which
I belong. I have been fortunate in collecting my data while Mrs.
Canfield was still living. She gave me much information that I
could not otherwise have obtained. She died in May, 1S98, before
the book was printed.
My other sources of information have been, official records, fam-
ily records, correspondence with members of the family and genealogical
works. Of the last I would mention Munsell's "American
Ancestry," Austin's " Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island,"
and the "Vital Records of Rhode Island" compiled by James
Newell Arnold.

A complete list of the persons to whom I am indebted is im-
practicable. Suffice it to say that I am grateful for the many
favors I have received, and for the kind cooperation of the various
members of the family who have furnished me with data. No
effort has been spared to have the record accurate. Despite all
care, however, mistakes are unavoidable, and I apologize for them
in advance. Readers are requested to inform me whenever they
notice any error. I have accepted nothing
reliable and trustworthy source.
unless it came from a
The system of arrangement of the work is exceedingly simple
and needs little explanation.* The plan is the result of much
study and thought by Mr. W. Ogden Wheeler of Sharon, Conn., to
whom I acknowledge thanks for its use.
The spelling of the name is not uniform. In the old records we
find both "Butt " and "Butts." Later all spell the name " Butts."
My brothers, Charles H. Butts and Elias N. Butts, have shared
with me the expense of publishing this book.
Hoping that it will prove as interesting to my kindred as it has
to me, I remain,
Yours very truly,

*The Roman numerals before each name indicate the number of the generation
beginning with Thomas Butts.

The following letters were received by me in answer to inquiries
concerning the ancestry of Thomas Butts who came from Norfolk,
England :
Ivy House, Eaton,
Norwich, England.
Allison Butts, Esq., August 23, 1898.
Dear Sir— I must apologize for not answering your letter ere
this, but I have been away from home on a short holiday. I have
the pedigrees of all the Norfolk families as they were in 1600 (with
some additions by editors of the present century), taken from the
MSS. in the British Museum. I find the family of Butts from 1552
to 1625, but no later. They were considered a portance
family of some im-
—one high Sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk, another a
Baronet and had estates at Garboldisham, Shouldham Thorpe and
other places in this county, but they have apparently disappeared.
If you desire the pedigrees from 1600 onwards, no doubt they can
be found on searching the Parish Registers, but this would be a
lengthy business and would cost anywhere between ten and twenty
pounds. Although the name of Butts is no longer conspicuous,
one of the family may have been made a peer and the family name
covered by a title. I cannot give you the name of an expert in
such matters (at the moment), but on inquiry, I am almost sure I
could do so if you wish. I shall be pleased if I can be of service.
Yours very truly,
C. C. R. SPELMAN, Mayor.

Sir—Your letter to the Librarian British Museum has been
handed to me for reply, as I am an experienced searcher and have
been employed for many years
at the B. M. in this kind of work.

I find that the family of Butts is one of the oldest in Norfolk, but
a branch also settled in Suffolk. 1 mention this because there is
a much better history of Suffolk than of Norfolk, which, tho' it is
in manuscript only, gives much longer and fuller pedigrees and
of Norfolk. I have
much more information than any history
looked at every pedigree in both counties, but I find it quite impossible
to locate your Thomas Butts, tho' there were Thomas
Butts, but they are too early except one who died in 1600. One
member of the family became the first wife of Sir Nicholas Bacon,
father of the great Francis Bacon ; one member of the family was
Dr. Henry Butts, D.D., Master of Benel College in 1626. In 1632,
being to preach before the University on Easter day, he was found
hanged in his bedroom. Whether he was married or left children
is not known, but his property (as was the custom in those days)
was forfeited to the Crown.
There are a number of pedigrees and a large amount of information
of the various families of Butts in Dary's Suffolk (MS.), but
I have read it carefully through and find no trace of your Thomas.
This is also the case with the Norfolk Butts. I remain,
Yours truly,
(MRS.) ELLEN SALMON.
The following from " Hakluyt's Voyages," Vol. Ill, pages 168
and 169, will be of interest :
In 1536, Master Hare of London went on a voyage to Cape
Breton and Newfoundland. Among his companions was " M^.
Thomas Buts, the sonne of Sir William Buts, Knight of Norfolke,
which was lately living and from whose mouth I wrote most of
this relation." They returned to St. Ives in Cornwall about the
"
end of October. From thence they departed unto a certain
castle belonging to Sir John Luttrell, where M. Thomas Buts and
M Rastall and other gentlemen of the voyage were very friendly
entertained ; after that they came to the Earle of Bathe at Bathe
and thence to Bristol, so to London. M. Buts was so changed in
the voyage with hunger and miserie that Sir William, his father,
and my lady, his mother, knew him not to be their sonne until they
found a secret mark, which was a wart upon one of his knees."

\
The following extracts are taken from " Notes and Queries," a
genealogical publication, to be found in the Congressional Library
at Washington, D. C. :
Bishop Butts was a descendant of an ancient family, inheriting
property extending through many generations, from before the
time of Edward II to James II, situated at Shouldham Thorpe,
Norfolk, in the church of which place are many monuments of the
family. (Vol. II, page 17.)
It is now indeed long since I requested a reference to the passage
in Camden, from which, according to E. D. B., it would appear that
a William Butts was one of the Knights slain at Poitiers in 1356,
when fighting in the van of the army with Lord Audley. I found
a table of descent commencing with a Butts said to have married a
daughter of Sir William Fitzhough, Knight. His son is called Sir
William Butts, Lord of Shouldham Thorpe, County of Norfolk, and
of Coughton County, Chester, slain in the battle of Poitiers, with a
reference to Camden.
The next in descent mentioned is William Butts (and Ursula
Ellis), of Shouldham Thorpe. This William is the first mentioned
in the Visitation of 1619. His wife was a Kervill, and from him
to Leonard Butts who sold Norfolk property to settle at Bromley,
Kent County, the line is complete. Leonard Butts married Jane,
daughter of Leonard, of Suffolk. He signed the Visitation
pedigree of 1619, and, as I suppose, died without issue. (Vol.
VIII, page 435.)
A merchant family of this name flourished in the city of Norwich
during the thirteenth century and the two following centuries.
Members of it were repeatedly called upon to represent their fellow
citizens in the frequent Parliaments of the period.
They were altogether people of great wealth, conservative and of
influence in the native
Butts, Esq.,
place. The last who held office was John
Sheriff in 1456 and mayor from 1462 to 147 1. He
died in 1475. After this there is no more mention of the name.
13

The next publicity occurs, as far as I know, in reference to Sir
William Butts, of Ryburgh, the physician to Henry VIII, who died
in 1545.
(A note in fine print at the bottom of the page reads as follows :)
" Sir William Butts, who was slain whilst fighting in the van of
the English army commanded by Lord Audley under Edward, the
Black Prince, at the battle of Poitiers." (Vol. IX, page 149.)

Some time after his marriage, John Butts moved from Rhode
Island and settled in the easterly part of what is now the town of
Washington, Dutchess County, New York, then called Crom Elbow
Precinct. Oct. 4, 1748, he purchased a tract of land containing 200
acres of Isaac Thorn, one of the early settlers of that County.
This original deed is now in the possession of Mr. J. DeWitt Butts,
of Rochester, N. Y., and by his courtesy I am able to insert a copy
of it. (Mr. J. DeWitt Butts is a great grandson of Aaron Butts,
who was one of the executors of the will of John Butts.) John
Butts owned this land with other land adjoining until his death,
and it is mentioned in his will, a copy of which is also inserted. It
23

is located in the east part of the town of Washington, Dutchess
County, N. Y. The locality has long been known as " Butts
Hollow."
The easterly line of the land purchased from Isaac Thorn is the
division line between the towns of Amenia and Washington. By
his will, John Butts divided his lands between his sons Thomas and
Aaron, and it has since been further changed— parts taken from
and added to.
The principal parts are now (1898) owned by the heirs of Cyrus
Duncan and the heirs of Jesse Green. The Duncan farm is wholly
within the boundaries of the Thorn land, its northeast corner being
the northeast corner of the Thorn land. There is a tradition in the
Butts family that John Butts took this land in payment of wages
for carpenter work in building a house for Isaac Thorn at the rate
of an acre of land for a day's work. The Thorn house was located
near the village of Mechanic in the Town of Washington, and is
referred to in the history of Dutchess County published in 1882,
as follows:
"
There were three brothers of the Thorns, of whom Isaac was
the oldest, and, we are led to think, the possessor of the most land.
He built a gambrel roofed house upon the hill east of the Brick
Meeting House."
