    Notes:

    The following notes are excerpted from the book "John Butts: His Ancestors and Some of His Descendants," by Alison Butts, Poughkeepsie, NY, 1898, pp. 23 - 24:
    Some time after his marriage, John Butts moved from Rhode Island and settled in the easterly part of what is now the town of Washington, Dutchess County, New York, then called Crom Elbow Precinct. Oct. 4, 1748, he purchased a tract of land containing 200 acres of Isaac Thorn, one of the early settlers of that county. This original deed is now in the possession of Mr. J. DeWitt Butts, of Rochester, New York, and by his courtesy I am able to insert a copy of it. (Mr. J. DeWitt Butts is a great grandson of Aaron Butts, who was one of the executors of the will of John Butts.) John Butts owned this land with other land adjoining until his death, and it is mentioned in his will, a copy of which is also inserted. It is located in the east part of the town of Washington, Dutchess County, New York. The locality has long been known as "Butts Hollow."
    The easterly line of the land purchased from Isaac Thorn is the division line between the towns of Amenia and Washington. By his will, John Butts divided his lands between his sons Thomas and Aaron, and it has since been further changed-parts taken from and added to.
    The principal parts are now (1898) owned by the heirs of Cyrus Duncan and the heirs of Jesse Green. The Duncan farm is wholly within the boundaries of the Thorn land, its northeast corner being the northeast corner of the Thorn land. There is a tradition in the Butts family that John Butts took this land in payment of wages for carpenter work in building a house for Isaac Thorn at the rate of an acre of land for a day's work. The Thorn house was located near the village of Mechanic in the Town of Washington, and is referred to in the history of Dutchess County published in 1888, as follows:
    "There were three brothers of the Thorns, of whom Isaac was the oldest, and, we are led to think, the possessor of the most land. He built a gambrel roofed house upon the hill east of the Brick Meeting House."

    One genealogy says this John married second to Patience Brayton, in 1752. However, Patience may have married his son or nephew. The marriage record identifies him as John Butts of Tiverton, and by this time John would have been in NY.

    John married Alice Wodell 26 Oct 1727. Alice (daughter of Gershom Wodell and Sarah Mott) was born 18 Apr 1705. [Group Sheet]
