Discover Butler
Butler was founded around 1768 near Roan Creek and renamed after the Civil War for Colonel Roderick R. Butler. In 1948 the reservoir behind TVA's Watauga Dam covered the original town, which was rebuilt on higher ground, and about 1,281 graves were moved. Old Butler is called "the town that wouldn't drown," and a 1983 lake drawdown briefly exposed its remains.
