In the book "The Prisoners of the '45", Volume 2,(1929) by Sir Bruce Gordon Seton, I found a reference on pp.66-67 to

"_____ Butler, regiment of Lt. Fitzjames, Prison Career: 21.2.46 "Charite, Berwick, London, Pardoned conditionally on perpetual banishment 20-10-48.
Notes: "Taken at sea, 21.2.46, Scots Mag., Feb. '46. 96. This may have been the Thomas Butler who was pardoned 20-10-48, P.R.3623-28."

I would appreciate any additional information, including the references listed. I am looking for the Thomas Butler born 1720 in Wicklow, Ireland who was an ordinance officer in the British Army. He married Eleanor Parker in 1741. The family says he "got into some trouble" with the British Army, and immigrated in 1748 with his wife and 3 small children to Pennsylvania. He was the patriarch of the famous "Fighting Butlers" of the American Revolution who were 5 officers serving under Gen. George Washington. Could this be the same Thomas Butler?? The name, timeframe, "trouble with the Army" seem to fit. They are my DNA cousins.
Thanks for any assistance.
Mary Butler Arnold
