Hello,

After a few years off I've taken up the search for Buete's and still not make a connection to the origin of the name in Europe. My grandfather was born in NY, married and moved to Australia. However as far as his place of birth, siblings and how the other Buete's in America are related Still eludes us. Given the name is rare and the only concentration of the name is America and Germany is is puzzling.
I am the only Buete (Plus my family) in The country so very rare but terribly hard to find any leads. so as you can imaging when we get an email claiming a relation outside the country we are intrigued
