Good Afternoon Boschong Subscribers, Rick Bushong has brought it to my attention that the following William Bushong has not been identified. He is living in Strasburg, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania in the 1850 census. Does anyone have him attached to anyone? In 1850 William Bushong is living with what could or not be his daughter Hannah and possibly son-in-law George Hauk whose last name is spelled in various records as Hauk, Hauck, Houk, Houck, and Hawk to name a few. ------------------- William Bushong Born: 25 April 1779, place of birth unknown Married: Wife unknown Died 6 September 1859, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania Buried in Salem Evangelical Reformed Church Cemetery, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania -------------------- 1850 Federal Census: Pennsylvania Strasburg, Lancaster County Enumerated 27 August 1850 Page 83B Lines 12-18, HH 92/102 George Hauk 52/Male/Farmer/Place of Birth Not Stated Hannah Hauk 49/Female/Place of Birth Not Stated Mary A.
