TITL Sherman BoydJohn Butler is shown on the 1840 census with two boys, sons presumably, living with him and his wife, but on the 1850 census he has no family and is living with Joshua, his brother.
In 1860 he is living with his great niece, Elizabeth Jones and her family. R. Allen states he is not sure what happened, but it appears that John Butler's sons chose for some reason, perhaps
involving the death of their mother, to have nothing to do with him after her death.
