Theresa, I assume you have found this from a census report? Please can you let us know what you already have, it saves duplication! In other words, which census report(s) and anything else. Thanks.

PS I googled cropwell butler (it's in Nottinghamshire), and there is quite a bit about it! Have a look.

The image shows his occupation as signalman, and born Winterbourne Gloucestershire so I think this must be him in 1861.
