I wonder if you may have visiting any Butler relations on your trip to Cleburne, Texas. My husband's father, Nathaniel Garrow Butler was born in Cleburne? You must be from the Colorado Butlers they talk about.
Nathanielo Garrow Butler, my uncle Garrow, was born in Amite County Mississippi. His mother, my grandmother, moved to Cleburne and latter Uncle Garrow moved there before moving to California. My dad, David Homer and my uncle Lester and my uncle Harrel also moved to Colorado.
