    Hello, Thank you for your email.  Matthew O. Butler was my great grandfather.  I did not know him, but I did know Fairlee Tichenor, my great grandmother.  They actually had four children:  Matthew, Kirby B., Rosebud (who married and became Rosebud Nicholson), and Benjamin Calvin.  Matthew died as a baby or small child.  Rosebud, my favorite great aunt, died a couple of years ago at around 93 years.  Benjamin Calvin died in 1985.  He either killed himself or was murdered.  Kirby B. was my grandfather; he died of a stroke or a heart attack in 1975.  Kirby Bonner Butler, Sr. (my grandfather) had 3 children: Kirby Bonner Butler, Jr. (my dad), Pamela Butler, and Greg Butler.  My maiden name is Laurie Lee Butler.  I have a twin sister and two brothers.
