Dr. John C. BUTLER was born in Maryland in 1795. He was married in Missouri around 1818, then moved to ILLINOIS. He was Catholic. One possible lead for his father is a listing of Henry BUTLER born 18 April 1762 in Prince George Co. He is known to have had a son John. Was it John C? John BUTLER was a very common name in Maryland at that time, so this is a very difficult search. Any leads or thoughts would be appreciated. Lynn Keller prewarpro@aol.com

Notes for Joseph CLAYTON: In 1785 a league of 60 families was formed in Maryland, pledging to immigrate to Kentucky within a specified time period. The first twenty- five families left in the spring of that year and later the same spring arrived in Nelson County, Kentucky, at a place called Goodwin's Station, which is near the present community of Boston. This was the nearest fortified post to their actual destination of land on Pottinger's Creek. After arriving the men left the women and children at the Post and set out to claim their lands some 12 to 15 miles southeast of the post. These very careful arrangements were necessary because of the Indian problems. The families originated from St Mary's and Prince George's County in Maryland. The Joseph Clayton family is one of these families. Joseph Clayton arrived in Nelson County by at least October 3, 1793, as he is listed on the court records as a bondsman for the marriage of George Clark and Sarah Brothers. His daughters were older than his sons and married first. The sons all married a few years after arrival in Kentucky, but nothing is known about the mother. (Jerry Alsup) Matross was a nickname given to Joseph when he served in the Revolutionary War. He was an assistant to an artillery gunner - a matross - and the name stuck. Virginia Revolutionary War Pension Applications: Joseph Clayton BLWt.2474.100 Sept 1846, Nelson County, Kentucky. William Clayton proved in Court by the oaths of Mary Clark and Susan Clark that Joseph Clayton left the following heirs: William Clayton, John Clayton, Joseph Clayton, James Clayton, Charles Clayton, Polly Ford, who was Polly Clayton who died leaving children Robert Ford, Shelton Ford, Theresa Ford, and Nelly Ford, Catharine Hayden formerly Clayton who died leaving children Elbert Hayden, Ellen Hayden, Elizabeth Hayden, Jane Hayden, James Hayden and Urban Hayden, and Sally Clayton and Thomas Clayton, also children of Joseph, who died unmarried and without issue. 22 April 1848. Nelson Co, Ky. William (X) Clayton, one of the heirs at law of Joseph Clayton, declares Joseph Clayton served during the war as a private in the Virginia Continental line. 22 March 1851. Nelson Co, Ky. Peter (X) Blair, aged 84, of Washington County, Ky, declares Joseph Clayton, deceased, was a soldier in the Revolution. His brother John Blair was in service at the same time. Clayton was wounded in one of his hands. Clayton moved to Kentucky and settled in Nelson County and died in 1824 leaving as his heirs: William Clayton, John Clayton, Joseph Clayton, James Clayton, Charles Clayton, and Polly Ford who was Polly Clayton who died leaving children Robert, Shelton, Teresa and Nelly Ford, Catherine Hayden formerly Clayton who died leaving children Robert Hayden, Ellen Hayden, Elizabeth Hayden, Jane Hayden, James, and Urban Clayton, and Sally Clayton and Thomas Clayton, also children of Joseph, who died unmarried and without issue Joseph was found listed in the Virginians in the Revolution as follows: Clayton, Joseph (Claton) Matross, 1st Artillery, enlisted February 7, 1777.
