Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Butchertown, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.

<3>The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required.
