• Notes

  Thomas G. Butler was baptized 27 May 1733 in Berwick, ME, where he married Bridget Gerrish. In 1773, Thomas signed a petition opposing British revenue taxes. True to his conviction, he joined the American Revolution as a First Lieutenant and served in Capt. Ebenezer Sullivan’s Company and Col. James Scammans’ Regiment. He went to Cambridge, MA, where he served for three months. He moved to Sanford, ME, in the late 1780’s, where his last of twelve children was born. He established the Butler homestead on Mt. Hope. Upon his death, in 1809, he left one half of the homestead to two of his sons, Nathaniel and William.
