Notes
- There were at least two William H Butlers. This one was named Hunt after his mother's family name. His brother Memucan also had the middle name of Hunt. His brother Thomas F had a son name William H, but none of the sources give the full middle name. Their grandfather Isaac (father of John Pomfret) also had a son named William, but we have no middle name or initial for him.
