Frances Anne "Fanny" Kemble (27 November 1809 – 15 January 1893) was a notable British actress from a theatre family in the early and mid-nineteenth century. She was also a well-known and popular writer, whose published works included plays, poetry, eleven volumes of memoirs, travel writing and works about the theatre.
In 1834, Kemble retired from the stage to marry an American, Pierce Mease Butler. Though they lived in Philadelphia, Butler was the grandson of the Founding Father Pierce Butler, and heir to a large fortune in cotton, tobacco and rice plantations. By the time the couple's daughters, Sarah and Frances, were born, Butler had inherited three of his grandfather's Sea Island plantations and hundreds of people who were enslaved on them.
The family visited Georgia during the winter of 1838–39, where they lived at the plantations at Butler and St. Simons islands, in conditions primitive compared to their house in Philadelphia. Kemble was shocked by the living and working conditions of the slaves and their treatment at the hands of the managers. She tried to improve their conditions and complained to her husband about slavery, and about the mixed-race slave children attributed to overseer Roswell King, Jr.
When the family returned to Philadelphia in the spring of 1839, Kemble and her husband were experiencing marital tensions. In addition to their disagreements over treatment of the families enslaved at Butler's plantations, Kemble was also "embittered and embarrassed" by Butler's marital infidelities.
She returned to the theatre after their separation in 1847 and toured major US cities. Although her memoir circulated in abolitionist circles, Kemble waited until 1863, during the American Civil War, to publish her anti-slavery Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation in 1838-1839. It has become her best-known work in the United States, although she published several other volumes of journals.
In 1877 Kemble returned to England with her second daughter and son-in-law. She lived in London and was active in society, befriending the writer Henry James.

Reginald Cotterell Butler (28 April 1913 – 23 October 1981) was an English sculptor. He studied and lectured at the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London from 1937 to 1939. He was a conscientious objector during the Second World War, being exempted from military service conditional upon setting up a small blacksmith business repairing farm implements. After winning the 'Unknown Political Prisoner' competition in 1953 he became one of the best known sculptors during the 1950's and 1960's, and taught at the Slade School of Art.
Beautiful country around Butlers pond. I was pleased to get a decent exposure because is was midday and the light was a little harsh.

The Butler palace in Lucknow was built by Sir Mohammad Ali Mohammad Khan, Rajah of Mehmoodabad (1877 -1931), during the year 1919.
The foundation of the Palace was laid in 1915 by the then Deputy Commissioner of Lucknow, Sir Harcourt Butler. Initially this beautiful palace was used for the official residence of Sir Harcourt Butler. After independence, the Palace had been the academic centre (Library) of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research (ICPR)until 2005 when the Council vacated the Palace following the Supreme Court order.

The Palace is the property of to Raja of Mahmudabad, Mohammed Amir Mohammed Khan, hence you can see it from outside only.
