Your George was George Washington Butler b 30 Aug 1821 in Henniker, Merrimac, New Hampshire to Bela Lincoln Butler (b 28 Aug, 1792; Hillsboro, Merrimac, New Hampshire; d 10 Sep 1876, Ashtabula, Ashtabula, Ohio)and Abigail Tilton (b 18 Mar 1770; Easton, Washington, NY). Bela and Abigail had other children - Benjamin Franklin Butler, Charles Harvey Butler, Addison Gardner Butler, Caroline Sophia Butler, Maria Antonette Butler and William Henry Butler.
George's father Bela was the son of Bela Lincoln Butler b 22 Nov 1764, Framingham, Massachusetts; d 25 Jul 1837, Henniker, New Hampshire, and Betsy Seagers b 7 Jan 1767; d 10 Oct 1823. This senior Bela Lincoln Butler was the brother of my fourth ggrandfather John Butler. They (Bela and John) were the children of Captain Joseph Butler and his wife Sarah (unknown surname). Joseph was a Minuteman in the town of Concord, MA during the Revolution and was the son of John Butler and Elizabeth Howe of Framingham.
According to the Compendium of Genealogy published in 1925, Joseph's father John was the son of Peter Butler(2) and Elizabeth Brown (daughter of Abraham Brown and Rebecca Usher) of Boston and Peter(2) was the son of Peter Butler(1) and Mary Alford of Boston. Both Peter Butlers were "merchants and mariners."
I hope this all makes sense and helps a little. There are, of course, lots more dates, individuals and very interesting details. Email me if you are interested.
