The surname for the family below from Page 333A of the 1850 Winston Co. MS census transcription should be “Butler” instead of “Button”.  I have examined the census image at www.ancestry.com and it clearly says Butler.  I am also familiar with this family from other sources and the names and ages match my research.  This family also shows in the 1860 census in Walker Co. AL with the exception of Sarah who died between 1850 and 1860.
