Hi- Would he be on the census records? What is his name? There may be land records that we can find, or newpaper articles? What years did he live?

You should also check the 1858 and 1874 maps that are online at www.rootsweb.com/~pabutler. You may find his name on those maps. Pat -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG.
