Born about 1656, Ipswich, Massachusetts,[1] died 1711,[1] in Ipswich. From one of the gedcoms, citing a non-working link to Ancestry, One World Tree.
Sarah Cross, d/o Robert Cross and Anna Jordan, born say 1657, m. by 1677 Lt. William Butler.[2]
Sarah’s husband Lt. William Butler was born 1653 in Essex, Mass. His parents were William Butler and Sarah [__?__]. William died 2 Aug 1730 in Ipswich, Essex, Mass. [1]
William Butler, Jan. 29, 1711, gives to his son Ralph “one half of the house I now live in—that is, the northwest end, the old end that father Cross lived in–with two acres of tillage, etc. This farm was in Chebacco (the part of Ipswich now Essex) and had been bought by William Butler in 195 and 199 of Capt. Stephen Cross and Robert Cross, Jr., sons of Robert Cross, Sr. (Essex Deeds, Vol. 10, p. 163; vol. 12, p. 53).
It is in the deed of Capt. Stephen Cross, June 15, 199, that is found the first mention of William Butler as lieutenant; in other deeds he is called “senior,” “farmer” and “yeoman,”
William’s wife Sarah died before July 21, 1703, when he married Mary Ingalls, and he married again (int. pub. Oct. 3, 1713) Abigail Metcalf. She survived him, marrying, June 1, 1731, Lieut. Simon Wood, and dying Oct. 1, 1732, aged 67 years, which makes her date of birth 1665.[1]
