W. Wesley Johnston and John Butson's Early Butson Research

Wesley Johnston and John Butson's Early Butson Research
Interpreting The Records

John Butson (of Devon) and Wesley Johnston (originally of Illinois, now of California) separately researched Butson family history over several decades and gathered many records. In 2011, we connected with each other and began combining what we had gathered and concluded.

This page presents the records that we have found. The records are separated geographically. However, some contextual information is first provided, so that the records may be properly interpreted.
