| From Jeannette Carroll: The cabin where Myrtle, Lottie and Gertrude Addington were born.
My brother-in-law, Paul Carroll sent it to me. He lives in Washington state but owns 40 acres in the Verona, MO area. On the back of this photo - "this is the cabin on a 40 acre farm in Butterfield, MO (just down the road from where Aunt Dovey lives). The cabin is located close to the farmer named Rash who grew strawberries, it was on the corner of Machetty Grove. Machetty may be the way it is spelled. Donna's Note: The Dovie mentioned above is probably Dove Frazier who married William Bolton. She was a daughter of Myrtle (Addington) and Theodore Fraizer.  |
Addington Cabin Location -1930 Plat Map Addington Cabin Location - 1909 Plat Map The 1909 Plat Map has a cross where Russell Cemetery is, this must be near where the cabin was located in section 6. Also see the Russell Cemetery Page, too. The 1930 map has a Rausch family living near the Douthitt family on the plat map in Section 7. This cabin is often referred to as the Savage Cabin because the last people to live in it was W. C. Savage. It was moved to the Greenway Trail in Cassville near 13th Street.  |

| Notes
Marriage license, State of MO, Barry Co., MO. Bertie L. Addington of Purdy, MO. over the age of 21 to Melvina C. Long, married at bride's residence 28th of Sept 1890. L. A. Smith, Preacher. Cassville Republican, 10-14-1900, divorce listed was M. C. Addington vs B. L. Addington, divorce. Cassville Republican, 10-25-1900: M. C. Addington vs B. L. Addington, divorce. Granted. In 1930, Melvina Smith was living next door to Sam Haddock and Myrtle Carroll. She was age 59 and born in MO. She listed her father born in MO and her mother born in TN. Her husband was Asher Smith, age 65, born in MO. He listed his father born in TN and his mother born in MO. She first married at age 21 and he first married at age 27. From Darla Ball Marbut: The Savages bought the cabin from Dave Russell in 1945 (page 278 of Butterfield Community Book). The information there is difficult to follow but may go like this: W. A. Russell lived on land north of the Russell cemetery in 1850. On April 1, 1878 Willis Russell was listed in Mortgage Deed Book C, page 506 for land in Section 6, North 1/2 of S/E 1/4 in Township 23 and Range 27. It reads like Dave's father was Willis Russell. In 1900 Atlas it lists a T. J. Russell living at that location ... North and West of the cross that marks the Russell Cemetery. F. Rausch is in that Section 6 as well. Plat Map - 1909 Ref: "Butterfield Community, Then & Now", page 276: By 1920 Willis and Sarah were deceased and Thomas Jefferson Russell, age 49, and Catherine N., age 32, were living the log cabin raising their family: Josie was age 8, David W. age 6, Lacey M. age 4, Rhoda J. age 3, and William L. was 6 months old. Willis Russell's father was Asa Russell. The W. A. Russell could have been Asa? He was buying land North of the Russell Cemetery in the 1850s. Willis was found in 1870 in Newton Co., MO, living at Newtonia. Children were Carian 18, George 16, John A. 16 David W. 13, Thomas J. 9, born in Indiana William R., age 5, born Indiana. In 1880 the Willis Russell Family was Household #67 with wife Elizabeth, son Thomas born 1862 in Indiana and son, William born 1864, in Indiana. In 1894 Willis was living in the Butterfield Village. |
