My ancestor is also George Butterbaugh / Puderbaugh. Two sources of information are: "The Puterbaugh / Butteraugh Immigrant Brothers of 1752" by Wilbur Linder. This article was published in the January 1983 issue of Mennonite Family History.
Also, Justin Replogle wrote a book entitled "Ancestors on the Frontier" . This chronicles the Miller, Cripe, Ulrich, Replogle, Shively, and Metzger families from Maryland and Pennsylvania, to Ohio, to Indiana. The Butterbaughs are chronicled in this book. I had to write to Justin directly to get the book (he published it himself). ISBN 0-9664693-0-5
I would like to trade information with you.

Hi Phil: thanks for contacting me. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I haven't been on the computer much in the last couple of months until today. I have never seen the article published by Wilbur Linder. I have corresponded in the pas with a Repogle, but I don't think it was Justin. I would loved to get a copy of the book as Metzger and Ulrich are also one of my lines. I would love to share information with you too. You can contact me at nicolle@csusa.net I should be on more often now. Talk to you soon. Nicolle

Barbara,
Reading your messages and those responding to you I find more surnames my Mom told to me. Sounds like the beginning of a long story doesn't it.{:>)
When first I saw Puterbaugh, I thought of Butterbaugh, Butterball, but decided to ignore that as it is Ulerich and it's other names I indeed seek.
Reading along with your message, others have mentioned to you are those told me by my Mom too.
Lockwood Bauer Bower, Bowers, Bowersocks, Bowersachs, etc (have found some. Bowman, Schwinn Hoover ( found one on different side of family can't remember this one for sure.) Adams, Addams( I know I have the latter) Metzger, have known some
So forgive me as I add this message to try to find this connected line to all of them. To all those including Nick searching for the Ulerich surname, I have been told used to be the name for my family with an explanation I will gladly share, but not here, for fear it might be wrong, I wouldn't want to set anyone on a wrong path I haven't been able to verify at this point.
I heard the name had been changed including different variations of it about 1830's, it might explain why I can find my GG-Grandfather married, but not where or when he was born.
Does anyone know of a Thomas Chandler Ulerick or variation there of, born c. 1800 and I can't find date of death but his wife was a widow in 1880 living with her father.
I think all of you are on to something here with this name, If one of us could just find a connection, it would no longer be such a crazy game.
My G-Grandfather is George, his son, Daniel is my Grandfather. Even the spelling known to me in the past has varied many times.
Mom did mention the possibility of Native American Heritage, but she said Cherokee and I have found no connection. Long ago I did think I may have found another, but couldn't prove the connection with the surnames I know.
I'm told besides this name being German in origin, it also has it English side, French and Ireland too. All that fits with what I have been told about my nationalities of which I was informed for years.
I have found connection to these Nations in other family of mine, but after so many years of search, I am willing to give this a try.
Since I haven't been able to find a message board for Ulerich first said to be spelled Ullerich, there has to be a reason why.
I read somewhere recently, the name had died out in one line, and I wrote to that person suggesting it had just been a name change. The letter was returned and couldn't be researched.
While in the past Mom told me of all the surnames in our lines, one she used to say was what I thought was Aldridge, but she didn't spell the names. Knowing as others in the past wrote names the way they sounded to them, I could well be doing the same.

Contact the Conocoheague Institute, Bain Road, Welsh Run, Mercersburg, PA for additional information. George lived within a mile of the institute and is buried in the nearby Secrist Cemetery, although his marker is no longer visible. The small cemetery has been rescued and reclaimed from the groundhogs. George is my 5th great-grandfather, his son John is my 4th great-grandfather. C.N. Russell, Fergus Researcher@gmail.com
