They then purchased farm property of a little over 100 acres at the south end of Woodstock right across the street from the Massanutten Academy where they lived until their deaths. Edward Mark Bushong inherited the farm and lived there until his death in 1922. His Will written in 1913 ordered that after his death, that all of his real and personal property be sold. The property was then sold out of the family. At some point their home was torn down and a BP station now sits on the corner of the property across from Massanutten Military Academy. ------------------------------------- Boschong Subscribers, I need to make a slight correction in the properties that Henry Bushong (married to Mary Ann Wendel) owned. I said that he bought a home in Woodstock in 1843 and sold it in 1846. I have suddenly realized that I meant that the property he bought in 1843 (actually 1842 from Charles Moore), released in 1843 and sold in 1846 was located at the south end of Mount Jackson at the curve in the road on Route 11. I believe he then used that money to purchase in 1847 the piece across from Massanutten Military Academy from the Gaw Estate and it consisted of 152 acres (not a little over 100 acres) and Lot 177 in Woodstock. I found the deeds in Shenandoah County Deed Books. Shenandoah County Deed Book X X, Pages 95 and 141 Gloria Bushong
