Oh my goodness. I just realized that I have made a mistake on the subject line of my post. It should read Arthur and Emma (Kelloway) Butt. By mistake I used the name of Ella Blanche Butt's husband in the subject line and not her father. I sincerely apologize for any efforts that you have made to help me with misinformation. I could blame it on being a senior citizen but that is no excuse. Here is Ella Blanche's obituary upon which I based my research.
PERRY (Butt), Ella Blanche - 83, Highland Street, Sydney, passed away Saturday, April 13, 2002, in Cape Breton Regional Hospital. Born in Flat Rock, Carbonear, Nfld., to the late Arthur and Emma (Kelloway) Butt, she moved to Glace Bay in 1944 and lived there until 1980. Since 1980, she lived in Sydney. Surviving are her husband, Tobias Perry; sons, Harold (Corrine), Cyprus; Ted (Milli), Sardis, B.C.; daughters, Helen Huntington (Lowell), Marion Bridge; Mel Swarbrick (Roger), New Glasgow; Linda Fournier (Roland), Deep River, Ont.; Carolyn Steele (Lindsay), Westville; sister, Melvena Pye, Newfoundland; brother, Henry Butt, Newfoundland; grandchildren, Lisa Huntington, Toronto; Brenda (Danny) Piensznski, Marion Bridge; Andrew Butt, Robin "Rob" Stewart, both of British Columbia; Danielle (Kerry) Mooder, Leanne (John) deJeu, both of London, Ont.; Nancy McQuaid, Montreal, Que.; great-grandchildren, Steven and Thomas Piensznski, Marion Bridge; Lilly and Jack deJeu, London, Ont. She! was predeceased by her first husband, Hubert Butt; infant children, Elizabeth and Hubert. Our mother will be fondly remembered by her friends and neighbours for her friendliness and generosity of spirit. Visitation will be held 1-3 p.m. Monday, followed by funeral service, both in Sydney Memorial Chapel, Rev. Lewis Crewe and Capt. Wanda Vincent officiating. Family flowers only.
From this I found the obituary of Henry Butt found out more information.
BUTT, Henry C.- Passed peacefully away in the presence of his loving family at the Carbonear General Hospital on Thursday, October 4, 2007, Henry C. Butt of Carbonear, age 94 years. Predeceased by brothers: Martin, James, Gerald and John; sisters: Betty, Blanche and Stella; daughter-in-law: Lorna. Leaving to mourn wife: Sophie; one daughter: Marilyn Butt, Paradise; two sons: Herb (Sue) and Vince (Iris), both of Carbonear; nine grandchildren: Laura (Patrick), Jan, Karla (Mike), Kristen (Andrew), Kirk (Jolynn), Trent (Andrea), Trevor, Lynn (Trevor) and David (Melissa); eight great-grandchildren: Madison, Kai, Kieren, Logan, Mason, Brooke, Claire and Nolan; one sister: Melvena Pye, Bareneed; also a large number of other relatives and friends.
From that I discovered the births and baptisms of some of the children as well as Arthur's dad's name, that being Henry.
I must apologize again for my mistake and will try and continue my research, this time hopefully using correct information. Thank you so much for what you have tried to do to help. It is greatly appreciated. Now I have to see how I can change the subject line. Oh the trials and tribulations of the aging process.
