My South Bucks are: Hare from Beaconsfield / Hedgerley / Fulmer, Spring in Fulmer Masters from Iver, Kedge from Denham (with a couple to Australia on her majestys invitation). Then into Middlesex and onward to London. Butler from Ludgershall is a bit more North though. Always ready to hear from anyone connected with the above or to offer advice for the area as I am not too far away in SW Herts.

I have some 17th century Butlers in Aylesbury, who suddenly sprang up with no known antecedents. Samuell (buried 1683) & his daughter Sarah (christened 1676). There's also an Ann Butler who married Samuel Jones 1770 at Ashendon, who I think may be the mother of Anne Jones (chr. Ludgershall 1772), who may be the Anne Jones who married John Washington of Ludgershall at Waddesdon in 1792. Lots of maybes there, I'm afraid.
