In Reply to: searching for O.K. Valentine Button's father William by Joleen Curran of 1206

William Button appears in the untraced Button Family group in The Button Families of America book. It says he died May 3, 1869. He married 1st Louisa ____ and 2nd Oct.7, 1865 to Frances Graveline b July 11, 1844 died Dec 31, 1909. She married 2nd George Perring.

It goes on to list OK b Feb 14, 1868 and his son Herbert James born Dec 13, 1908 at Ypsilanti, MI, who married Opal Vivian Saltz Mar.17., 1928 and lists their 6 children.

We have DNA from two different Button lines that lived within 80 miles of Ypsilanti, MI, including mine.

I am the administrator of the Button DNA project and we have DNA from 16 Buttons and know the ancestry of 8 of them. If you can find a male Button in this line to take the test (cost $100 to $200 depending on the test), you may be able to match his line up with a Button line that has already been tested. Four Button tested now know their Button line through DNA testing but have not found the exact connection yet.

You may contact me at sbutton@aol.com if you want more information about DNA testing.
