Dear Jan Annis Sharp,
I was recently browsing info concerning the Butolph's and came upon your request. I'm not sure how helpful I'll be considering I only have the information that's available to me in the Buttolph/Butolph book (compiled by Jerry Graves) that my Dad gave me.
Wallace William Butolph is my great, great Uncle. I'm not sure what you wanted to know specifically but this book says "Eva Mae 1917-2003, married Wesley L. Miller.
Eva Mae was named after Eva (Annis) Davis, a close friend of the family. Eva Annis was a friend from Ethan, in Davison county that had also moved to Morristown where she married Sylvester Davis. Eva and Sylvester farmed near Morristown and later operated a gas station/store/restaurant in Morristown." "In 1929 Wallace and Alta's family was living in Mitchell, SD before moving to Minneapolis where Wallace found work in a factory. Eventually they moved to Robbinsdale, a suberb of Minneapolis, where they spent the rest of thier lives. Wallace passed away in 1961 at the age of 78. Alta passed away at the age of 95 in 1979."
This is the info I only have time to put in for now. I hope it's helpful to you.
Sincerely, Roxanne Larson
