Surnames: Button Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/oEC.2ACE/564.1.1 Message Board Post: Joan I have no idea where my John Button could be. I know he died in 1873. His wife Emeline died in 1867 in Black River Falls. The Buttons in Melrose are probably family. His son Jefferson L lived around there somewhere. I am trying to find John in the hopes it will give me leads to another son, Myron, my gg grandfather. My g grandfather Horace was supposedly born in Irving in 1872 but I havent been able to find any of them after the 1860 Clay, Onondaga Co., NY census. According to the obit posted on Emeline the family moved there in 1865. I recently saw the obit about Emeline. There are messages posted about Emeline Button and Jefferson L Button. I have ancestry but haven't had any luck finding them. Donna
