Hi Jo

My gt grandmother was Sarah Hannah Button, I have traced the family back and all come from the Coleford area.

In fact I have 5 seperate lines of Buttons from the Coleford area in my tree.

I have a lot of information.

Hi Jo

My line goes back through.
Sarah Hannah Button 1868 - 1930
Owen Button 1835 - 1910
Giles Button 1810 - 1879
William Button 1781 - 1840
John Button 1753  who married Ruth Button 1757 -1793

I can trace both John's and Ruth's lines  back to Edward Button who died in 1686.
I also have many of the other lines from Edward.
