I am looking for some information on my great,great,great grand father Issac Butcher. I know that his family lived in Virgina, Kentucky and Indiana. I have his father listed as William but I am not sure of what his mothers name was. she could have went by her middle name (sadona?). I know that Issac was married in KY but his wife's name is listed as angeline in the 1850 census. Any information would be helpful. thanks

Sounds like you are looking for the William Butcher family that was in Clinton Tp, Decatur Co IN before they moved on to Howard Co IN. Marian

The 1850 census showed the William Butcher who was in Clinton Tp, Decatur Co IN had a son William about 14 or 15 years old. He married Deborah Jane Ray, youngest daughter of my GrGrGrandparents James and Jane Ray of Fugit Tp, Decatur Co IN. The 1860 Mortality Schedule for Decatur Co IN showed that Deborah Jane had died, and the 1860 census shows William Butcher with no wife and two small children, Samuel and Hannah Butcher. I have never found any further trace of these children and wonder if anybody has any information on them???? Another researcher tells me that the Clinton Tp William Butcher family moved to Howard Co IN but she found no mention of Samuel and Hannah there, either. Any suggestions? In the 1850 census there was another William Butcher family living in Fugit Tp, Decatur Co IN. We have found no connection between the two Butcher families, but this William Butcher also had a son William about 14 or 15 years old in 1850! Four William Butchers in that one census! Two daughters of the Fugit Tp William Butcher married two of the sons of the GrGrGrandparents James and Jane Ray of Fugit Tp. We have been able to trace the children of this Fugit Tp family.. Marian

Hi I'm a decendent of Isaac and Elizabeth Clark Butcher. Is there a connection?
