History
A Mr. Wright had a post office and some living in his home were named Butts. Eventually, the place became known as Buttsville.[2] A post office was established as Buttsville in 1855, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1902.[3] When the railroad was built through Grundy County but bypassed Buttsville, the community declined in importance.[4]
