John Butts: his ancestors and some of his descendants

By Allison Butts

Every family has a hidden map. John Butts: his ancestors and some of his descendants charts one in meticulous detail, drawing the Butts family lineage out of letters, registers, and long-kept recollections. Names. Dates. Lives brought forward. Allison Butts turns scattered traces into a coherent line of kinship, following ancestors and descendants as they branch, marry, and settle into the everyday fabric of early America. For anyone drawn to origins, it offers the satisfaction of connection: the moment a name in a ledger becomes a person, and a family becomes a traceable journey. Its calm precision invites trust, and rewards patient, curious reading. Part family story, part tool for verification, this family genealogy book works as a compiled family history and a dependable genealogical reference volume. It brings together surname genealogy research in an orderly ancestry records compilation, giving readers a firm starting point for comparisons with their own notes and archives. Genealogy researchers will appreciate the attention to continuity and evidence typical of early American genealogy, where colonial era family records can be fragmentary yet decisive. Local history collectors will find a portrait of community networks, naming patterns, and the persistence of a surname across generations, while collectors of classic reference works will value it as a family tree reference collection with lasting documentary significance. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today -- a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
