This year we are celebraing the 125th anniversary at Springhaven and we are collecting and feature as many artifacts as possible about the clubs history and Mr and Mrs Butler will be featured quite often. I would like to get in touch with Clifford to discuss his Grandparents and see if there are any portraits or images we can make copies of for display. Please let me know if there is a way to get in contact with him.

Thank you.

In reply to Kathleen Case. Hi Kathleen, Thank you for your message! I will send your request to Clifford Lewis. I would be interested to see the UPenn article, and I look forward to reading yours. Are you contacting the author of the UPenn article about the correct father?

Dear Stephanie: I am an historian writing an article about the Broomall Rock Shelters. Clifford Lewis’s mother, Mary Butler Lewis, excavated this site in the 1940s. I would like to get in touch with her son, Clifford, but I cannot find him. Might you be able to pass this request on to him, with my email address? A recent UPenn article on Dr. Butler, as she was listed professionally, gives the wrong Butler as her father, which should also be corrected.

In reply to stephanie. Hi Stephanie, Just saw this but thank you for your help. I did find her info on ancestry.com and your 1871 guess was correct. The essay is "country clubs" for the Encyclopedia of Greater Philadelphia. Your article and the images you posted are very interesting. Anne

Hi Anne,

The obituary for Eleanor Reed Butler shows she died on November 1, 1945. The numbers indicating her age are not clear – it appears she was 74, so she would have been born around 1871. She married George Butler on June 3, 1902. I could email Clifford Lewis – are you writing the essay for West Chester University? I will be interested to read your essay!

Hello, I am trying to find the life dates (years) for Eleanor Reed Butler for an essay I am writing on country clubs in the Philadelphia area. I wonder if you have come across them or might be able to connect with her grandson, whom you mention in this article. Thank you.
