Butter and field -

A pair of words with a special meaning?

Perhaps it was owned by Daniel Butterfield, who wrote "Taps" and was wounded at Gettysburg?

"Perhaps it was owned by Daniel Butterfield"

Or perhaps it was once owned by my good friend Lou Butterfield (IGWT), ... may he rest in peace.

Daniel Adams Butterfield (October 31, 1831 – July 17, 1901) was a New York businessman, a Union General in the American Civil War, and Assistant U.S. Treasurer in New York.

I thought Butterfield as well...but perhaps one more picture is needed, just to make sure ?
