Biography

The Buterbaugh family is of German origin, the founder of the family in Indiana county being William Buterbaugh, who came here about 1825, from Huntingdon county. He and his eldest son journeyed on foot through the country, then a forest, as far as Kittanning, hunting a place to buy, but owners were harder to find than land. On their way home they heard of a man that wanted to sell, near where the town of Lovejoy is now, went to see him, and bought some land with a log house on it. At that time he was married and all of his eight children, seven sons and one daughter, had been born. His wife was Christina Rodkey. and the children were: John, who married Elizabeth Learn; William, who married Mary A. Myers ; Jacob, who married Lydia Chapman; Henry, who married Mary A. Langham; George, who married Delilaha Langham; Frederick; David, who married Anna Langham and (second) Mary J. Bee; and Mary, who married George Learn. The family moved to this region about the holidays, "and having considerable stock found it quite a task to haul the feed and provisions for the winter. But Mr. Buterbaugh was anxious to get at the work of clearing his land, making it ready for crops, believing he could soon clear out a farm with the help of such a lot of stout and healthy boys, and he was not disappointed. ^[1]
