My grandmother, Jeanette Smith Butt, b.1890, d.1973, had a brother I always knew by "Uncle Buddy", who lived with his spinster sisters Rivers and Ruth on a horse farm halfway between Vaiden and Winona until his death. My father, Cyrus Butt III (b.1921, d.1987) had a cousin by the name of Rufus Smith, who may still be alive. Last I knew of him he lived in Memphis, TN. I have access to family records through my father's sister in Jackson if you think you'd like to pursue it.
