Elias Butterfield has joined the Tri-County Insurance team in Clay Center, alongside Jeff Newell and Dawson Miller. He and his wife Anna, who is originally from Clay Center, have made this area their home for the past several years.

“My wife went to K-State, and she was roommates with my cousin there, so we got introduced that way.”

“After we got married, we both grew up in small towns, and her family was here, and we both decided to make Clay Center our home.”

“When I got offered the job with Jeff and Dawson, I talked to them, and it seemed like a good fit.”

“I have made some great relationships, and it kind of just already feels like home to me.”

Butterfield and his wife also recently welcomed their new daughter, Finleigh, to the family. During his time as a Clay Center resident, Butterfield has come to appreciate the community and people who make this a positive place for him and his family.

At Tri-County, he will work as a Property & Casualty Agent, helping to provide support to families and businesses across the area. He’s looking forward to growing as an agent, along with becoming a bigger part of the community.

“Working with Jeff and Dawson at Tri-County has given me a chance to connect with so many people already in just the short time that I’ve been here.

“I’m just excited to keep building those relationships and being a resource for the community.”

Butterfield is excited to meet new people and help them with their needs. You can contact or visit Butterfield at the Tri-County Insurance office at 805 Bridge Street.
