While still a youth, he was received into the English College of Douai, Flanders and subsequently ordained a priest in 1735. His <i>Lives of the Saints</i>, originally titled <i>Lives of the Fathers, Martyrs and Principal Saints</i>, was the fruit of about thirty years' research and work. Additionally, he was a persevering, diligent, and hard-working priest who included biographies of over 1,600 saints in his aforementioned literary effort. Father Butler's <i>Lives of the Saints</i> was also printed by TAN in 1995 with the Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur. He died on May 15, 1763.
