I have been looking for my wife's ancestor for some time and have hit a dead end. Levi Louis Butler, b. December 16, 1809, in Ohio, m. Eleanor Jones, February 28, 1833, Holmes Co., Ohio, d. June 20, 1887, Jefferson Twp., Knox Co., Ohio Eleanor Jones, b. abt. 1814, Holmes Co., Ohio, d. November 23, 1899, Jefferson Twp., Knox Co., Ohio 5 children I believe Eleanor's parents are John Jones, b. 1760, Harpers Ferry, VA & Eleanor ???, b. August 15, 1771, ??? In the 1850 census for Jefferson Twp, Knox Co., Ohio, Levi Louis Butler's mother is 86 and living with them. Her name is Ellen, born in VA To be able to find Levi Louis Butler, I have found 3 Butler families in Holmes Co., 1830 census: Jonathan Butler in Prairie Twp. John Butler in Killbuck Twp. William Butler in Millersburg (Hardy Twp) Of these, Jonathan was well established. He married Sarah Morgan and had many children. So that leaves John Butler or William Butler. I am not getting any "hits" on the IGI using either John or William Butler married to Ellen or Elenor in Virginia or Ohio in 1800 plus or minus 20 years. Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks Steve
