Origin Unknown. "R. Glen Nye and Katherine (Watson) Nye identify Matthias Button as 'a son of Thomas Button of Harrold, Bedford Co., England. He was baptized there October 11, 1607' [Button Gen 23]. Such a baptism does exist, but there is no other evidence in support of this claim. Furthermore, since our Matthias is called at one point a "Dutchman", he presumably derived from a Germanic-speaking region on the Continent and not from England."
