    1. [NYONEIDA-L] Eliza (unkown maiden name) BUTLER -Oneida Co., Lee & Ava
    2. I am trying to find anyone who may be researching Eliza (unknown maiden name) BUTLER. She was married to Erastus BUTLER about 1853 in Lee, Oneida Co., NY by Nicholas Ufford, Justice of Peace. Erastus was born in Lee in 1827. Eliza was born in Ava, just north of Lee, July 10, 1835. Erastus died in December 1, 1880 near Lee. Eliza was still alive October 30, 1922 when she applied for a Civil War Pension on Erastus. She must have died shortly after that, for no more information was given in the file, which was retired Jan 29, 1923 and on June 27, 1927 the file was marked ABANDONED. Eliza may have remarried. But not according to the application she filed on October 30, 1922, she was 87 years old at the time and states she never remarried. Following are children that were probably her's as found on census reports and the last two reported in the pension file, along with birth dates: Alice A. BUTLER, b. abt. 1855 Henrittie (also found as Esidora) BUTLER, b. abt. 1859 George William BUTLER, b. abt. 1862 Franklin J. BUTLER, b. May 03, 1866 Francis Elizabeth BUTLER, b. March 11, 1874 Any information on any of the above people would be appreciated. I would love to know the maiden name of Eliza! Her last known mailing address was in Bernhard Bay, Oswego Co., NY in 1922. This is were she filed for the above mentioned pension. She was 87 years old at that time. Thanks. Dave in PA
