Buttons in Machias, NY
We have found the grave of Charles Button, his wife Naomi, and son Lyman in the Brewer Cemetery in Machias NY. It was a family cemetery, no longer used, but maintained by the county. All the stones are old -- early to mid 1800's. One stone is relatively new. The town historian guesses about 50 years or so. It only says "Button," no first names. I am trying to find out who placed that stone. Any thoughts or suggestions would appreciated. We have tried all the local sources...we assume it was a family member who had done some research.
