John Butler was a native of Maryland, and was born in 1769. While yet a young man, during or soon after the Revolutionary War, he immigrated to Kentucky, first settling in the upper part of the State in the blue-grass country, where he was married. Soon after that event, he moved to Adair County [in 1789], then a part of Green, where he bought wild land, and improved the farm upon which he resided until his death in 1839, in his seventieth year. During the War of 1812 he was the captain of a band of scouts on the frontier, and during the Black Hawk War commanded a company in the militia.
