Katherine, I have info on Butchers from Louisa &Muscatine Cos IA, but just broke my ankle Friday and am supposed to be leaving on vacation Wed. so I don't have time to look this up now. Will be home middle of May and will check my data base then and see if I can be of help to you. My GGdm Rebecca "Jane" Butcher was b. 1851 in IA and ended up living in Conesville, Muscatine Co. IA which is about 7 mi from Louisa Co.
