Subject: RE: Salathiel Butts
Salathiels' brother Andrew, who lived in Texas, recorded the names of his parents in the family Bible. They were Henry James Butts and his wife Susan.
Susan died in Missouri about 1847. I have heard from other
Cousins that Henry also died and is buried in Missouri. I do not know the date.
The Butts family went to Georgia in 1844. I often wonder if it was to visit relatives. There were quite a few members of the UPCHURCH family living in Henry Co., Ga.
