The Butler's name has been written in the front of some of the Buttery Books. This gives us a partial list of the names of the Butlers although we don't have exact dates. The College Order Book (MCGB4/2/1) also provides more information.

[1] At a meeting of the Master and Fellows on 7 March 1799 [MCGB/4/2/1] it was reported that the College had been defrauded to a very considerable amount by the late Butler, Edward Mills. They resolved to use all legal means to recover the amount of that fraud.
