My g-g-grandmother was Eliza Caroline BUTLER who married Henry J. GOSS about 1840, presumably in Lowndes Co., AL.In 1850, they and their early children (all born in Alabama in the 1840's) are found in the Lowndes County federal census.The family relocated to Holmes Co., MS, sometime prior to 1860.I believe that Eliza Caroline BUTLER may have had a sister named Ellafair BUTLER.Are you aware of Eliza Caroline BUTLER and is any of this consistent with your research?Does this family connect to the early Captain William BUTLER?Hope you are still interested.
