Biography of Octavia Walsh
St. Paul's Cathedral Library: MS 52.D.14 (Item 5) Commonplace book of poetic and prose extracts, begun 1696 (1696-c.1745. The flyleaf suggests
that Butler acquired the manuscript in 1693 from her father. The two sections
of her commonplace book (poetry and prose) each begin with the date 1696. The
final item Butler compiled in the poetry section is probably taken from a
printed work of 1720. The penultimate item Butler compiled in the prose
section is dated 1745. Three later hands added to the volume after
this.) Katherine Butler
