Location: The Butler Cemetery is located southwest of Oakshade, on the west side of CR 16, and south of US 20 (NE 1/2, S28, T9S, R4E)

History: The U.S. Government deeded land to Harlow Butler in 1835 and the following year the Butler family became the fourth family to settle in Chesterfield township. In that same year the first burial was made at the corner of the farm on grounds that became known as the Butler Cemetery. In 1866 Harlow and Mary Butler deeded the cemetery grounds to the trustees of Chseterfield township.
