Gail .. The only place the name Cheadle has shown up is in the notes I included. He was involved with Joseph Butler in the land deal for the Quaker Meeting House there in Golansville. Sorry I can't be of specific help. Thanks for responding. Happy hunting. Robert Butler .. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- On Mon, 12 Sep 2005 23:15:48 -0700 "Gail Moore" <[email protected]> writes: > Hello, > I understand that you research Butler and that this is what this > post is all > about.

Ok Golansville, where was that exactly. I had never seen this place before. I mean what County in VA? Or was this an old County back then? That way maybe I can go in and dig around a bit and see what I may find there if anything at all. And thanks a ton, Gail
