[or-roots] Buttonhole relative

[Robyn Greenlund]

I'm guessing it's a variant of a shirt-tale relative, which is "usually said to refer to somebody who is a relative by marriage or is only 
distantly related, such as a fourth cousin, or is a family friend with honorary 
status as a relative. It’s fairly common in the USA and has been since the 1950s 
or thereabouts."
