Also known as "THE 49 LOTS".   It listed 'IRISH LANDED GENTRY WHEN CROMWELL CAME TO IRELAND'.   '1649 OFFICERS'.
I saw this list many years ago at the P.R.O.N.I. which had this list.   There were GREEN, GREENE, GREENHAM, GREENSHALL, GREENVILLE officers on it.
GREEN. Waringstown, Corcreeny, Magherana, Magheralin, Aghalee, Aghagallon, Crumlin, Seagoe, Lurgan, (Northern Ireland).

WARING. Waringstown House, Co. Down (Northern Ireland).

GREEN. Toowoomba, Maryborough, Gladstone, Pittsworth, Aubigny, Kilcoy, Toowong, Brisbane, Buddina (Queensland, Australia).

GREEN. (New South Wales, Northern Territory, & Western Australia).

Marine:
Here is a list of the Adventurers. I don't see any Butterfields.

Now here is another list of the 49 lot which does show a John Butterfield.
http://www.combs-families.org/combs/records/ireland/

Farther down:

"From a list titled "Soldiers of the Commonwealth in Ireland," the names of those in the Catalogue of the Reports and Schedules addressed to the Court of Claims, who claimed as, or in right of, soldiers serving in Ireland in the Commonwealth period (1649-1660); and the Counties mentioned in the Reports.

BUTTERFIELD,(*) Patrick, Queen's Co. "

Hope this helps.
