'Walter Butler, who had married Elizabeth Chalcroft in 1628, fled Ireland in 1634 and settled near Chichester in present day West Sussex, England, where several generations of Butlers have lived. The line is continued through Thomas Butler (b. 1736), a son of John Butler (1697-1775) and his second wife, Ann Whitehead (d. 1756)'. An extremely rare pamphlet detailing the history of the West Sussex ( Fernhurst ) Butlers from c1634 through to the publication date. Captain John Butler was serving in the 55th Regiment Bengal Native Infantry when he compiled this short history, hence the place of publication. OCLC locates only one copy worldwide ( Boston Public Library ). A good copy but stitching slack and the text block is loosening in the binding. A few small pencil annotations identifying members of the family. Title page + 45 pages which indicates that a frontispiece or half title is probably missing. However, the Boston copy ( see above ) can be viewed digitally and has the same collation as ours. Full contemporary calf binding, gilt lettered on front board. Quite rubbed but very sound. Binder's ticket for 'Martin, Bookbinder, Calcutta' on front pastedown. Size approx. 9" by 6". Quantity Available: 1.
