Father
Benjamin Harrison Butler
Daddy was born in 1888. He was 12 yrs. old when his mother died. She was a Methodist.
My Daddy remembers going to church with her. He remembers them having a foot washing service and seeing someone get happy and kick over a pan of water. That was about 89 or 90 yrs. ago while the Methodist was still a foot washing, shouting christian church.

Grandmother (daddy's mother) was Hulda Hay - She had some Irish in her

Grandfather Butler had some Dutch in him.
He and his family were Church of Christ. However he wasn't baptized into the church until the last few yrs. he lived. Both of his wives were Methodist.
