Well got email from my cousin Norene:
Spent yesterday trying to sort out your Butrick line. Checked my records and did find the photo copy of marriage record of Benjamin to Sarah
Williams who married (1) William S. Reighley, 15 June 1869 in Marshall County, IN. They had two daughters, Laura E. Reighley b. 1870 and Minnie
Alberta Reighley b. 6 Jul, 1875. William S. dies before 1880 when the census lists Sarah Reighley living with her brother Marlan and his family.
Sarah and her daughters along with Benjamin Butrick are also listed. On Aug 4, 1880, Sarah Reighley and Benjamin Butrick are married in Amber,
Mason, MI, they divorce by 1887 when Sarah marries (3) Frederick W. Colton. Then when Minnie is about 16 years of age she marries Benjamin
Butrick. (Benjamin was her step-father and then her husband ) I knew there was a confusion, but finally I got it straight.
well then she send me info:
The Marriage I copied from the State of Michigan Record of County (Mason) if you want a copy of the original you will have to send to the state.
Date of Marriage Place of Marriage Full name Residence of each
Aug 4, 1880 Amber Benjamin F. Butrick

at time of Marriage age of both in years Birth-place of each
28 Pennsylvania
28 Ohio
Occupation, Officail and name whom, Witnesses at the marriage, Date of Record

This is where I get so confused..
I know that Benjamin married Minnie Alberta Reighley she is the daughter of Sarah Ann Williams
so there goes the mystery!!
