LifeSketch: Thomas was the eighth son of Colonel John and Mary Butler. He served in the Carter County Militia and may have been a Captain which would indicate military service. He married Sarah Broyles in 1785 and they had a daughter. In July of 1791, he married Rebecca Lacy in Washington County, North Carolina which became part of East Tennessee when Tennessee became a state in 1796. They had nine children. Thomas and Rebecca lived in Washington County and the evidence indicates that they moved to Blount County, Tennessee between 1816 and 1821. They moved to Walker County, Georgia about 1831. Thomas’ date of death is not recorded but he was on the 1840 census in Walker County and not on the 1850 census however Rebecca was on that census. So, his death is postulated as between 1840 and 1850. Thomas was an early settler in Cades Cove in Blount County. Publications on Cades Cove show Thomas purchased 640 acres of land from his brother William in 1830. He took part in the 1832 Cherokee Land Lottery and received Lot 50 in 1st section of 19th district. Thomas and William recorded the land grant for 1255 acres on 16 Jan 1835. Often, a land grant was issued and the land settled well in advance of the title being recorded. As early as 1821, William recorded grants of 1280 acres and Thomas could well have been farming in Cades Cove at this time. Thomas’ first son, Jacob, was killed in the Cove about 1821. By 1835 Thomas and his son Samuel owned and operated a mill approximately 4 miles from Ringgold in Walker County Georgia.
