Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VS.2ADE/768 Message Board Post: I am seeking information on the family of Thomas Jefferson Butler. Thomas is my great great grandfather. Our family has always thought he was born in North Carolina, but I found different information on the LDS website. The LDS website states that he was born on January 25, 1846 in Choctaw County, Mississippi. I'm not sure how long the family lived in Choctaw County. The only other information I have on him is that he married Mary Ann Palmer around 1867 in Carrollton, Pickens County, Alabama. He died on January 12, 1892. Any help would be appreciated!

I believe I have found quite a lot about your Thomas Jefferson Butler's family. "Jeff's parents were James, born South Carolina in 1800 & Elizabeth Shaw b. 1802 born ?. They are buried at Oak Ridge Cemetery on highway 14 between Pickensville and the Mississippi State Line. James was born ? died 1859 (age 67 years) Elizabeth was born ? died 3/11/1859 (age 57 years) They settled in Yalabuska County, MS. They Had 2 sons born in MS: Robert B. born 1832, and Thomas Jefferson "Jeff" born in 1840. Thomas married Mary A. Palmer, their children were: Andrew, Georgia, Delma, James B., Lona, and Florence. According to my information Thomas "Jeff" drowned in 1902, Mary died in 1901. They are buried at Crossroads Cemetery west of Carrollton with other family members. I will send additional Information on the family as soon as I can sort it out.
