I am a new subscriber to this list. I have a large Butts family with connections to Geauga County. I would be happy to exchange information with anyone recognizing any of the following Butts names: BUTTS, ABNER (believed to be the father of the following names) m Lottie Merryfield; appeared in 1840 Auburn, Geauga Co., OH census. BUTTS, ELIZABETH b 1787 RI; m Roger Antisdale; Land Transactions in Auburn, Geauga Co. from 1825 to 1836. BUTTS, PARDON b 1793 RI/NY; m Ruth Lemunyon 1818; d in Chester, Geauga Co., OH 1880 BUTTS, SHADRACK b 1798 RI/MA; m Antoinette (Unknown); appeared in 1830 Auburn, Geauga Co., OH census; Land Transactions in Auburn, Geauga Co., 1836-1842. BUTTS, DANIEL b 1800 NY; m Eunice Keyes 1829 Geauga Co.; d 1874 Auburn Geauga Co., OH; Land Transactions 1832-1855 in Auburn, Geauga Co., BUTTS, RUTH b 1801 NY; m William Stafford 1826; d 1868 IA; appeared in 1840 and 1850 Census in Auburn, Geauga Co. BUTTS, JOEL (my ancestor) b 1806 NY; m Mary E. Churchill 1828 in Geauga Co., OH; appeared in 1830 and 1840 census in Auburn, Geauga Co., moved to IL in 1846. BUTTS, ISAAC b 1807 NY; m Cynthia Woods 1829 in Chardon, Geauga Co.,; d 1888 Newbury, Geauga Co.; appeared in 1830, 1840, 1850, 1860 census in Auburn, Geauga Co., and 1880 census in Newbury, Geauga Co. Elsewhere on the Internet I found a reference to Butts Family Records in Raconteur, Vol. 6, Issue 1, Jan. 1983. I would really appreciate knowing where I could find this record. I believe Raconteur may be a publication of the Geauga Co., Genealogical Society. Thank you for any information you could provide me, especially on the parents of ABNER BUTTS. Dorothy Gillette
