Continue to search for other researchers of my 3ggf James Busby, b. 2 May 1754, m. Elizabeth Shackelford 4 Mar 1790, d. c. Jul 1838. Children included: Cynthia (b. 1795), Martha (b. 1796), Gabriella (b. 1804), Sophia Busby (b. 1806), Georgia Ann (b. 1808) and James jr (b. 1812). James' daughter, Martha Busby married George A Ritter and lived in Owen County, Indiana. Interested in contacting others working on this Busby line. This Busby family branch doesn't come up much on this list. Can anyone suggest other sources for this search? Bob Matkins Butte, MT [email protected]

Howard, what children are mentioned in Miles's will? Is it ever going to be put on the Busby Homepage? Seaborn W. Busby is my ancestor and we know by Vonn's testing that we go back to Benjamin Sr. or maybe a brother. Marilyn Dickson

It would be great to see those photos. Can you scan them in? Maybe we could put them on the webpage- what county were the people living in when the photos were taken? Are there any photographers names on the tintypes? Yes would love to know where these Busbys are buried?

Dorot hy, Interest ing couincidence that you are in Texas. I graduated from high school in Austin nearly fifty years ago. I have heard of Stephen Buzbee, but do not have information on his parents or siblings. As soon as most of the snow melts around here, I will traipse out to get copies of Miles' Will for you and send it by USMule. Regards, Howard

Dorot hy, May I have your snail mail address, please. I will send you a copy of Miles' will as soon as I get your address. Howard

Who are your ancestors? My mother was a Buzbee. Her father was Charles Arthur.

Barbara, I believe this Isham Cox was related to the Ivey/Ivys in the Bladen/Robeson area. Do you have any Ivey/Ivys listed in your Cox file. -----Original Message----- From: Barbara Moss [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 12:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Busbee Busby] Elizabeth Busby I came across this note in my Cox file, sorry, but I don't have a clue as to how I came by it. Sometime ago someone was looking for a Elizabeth Busby, it could help someone. Isham M. Cox was born about 1776 in Bladen co., N.C. and died after 1837 in Rhea co., Tn.

If Sandra picked Lillian, and Wayne was getting information from Benjamin, Sr, I would like to have dinner with Benjamin's wife who sired all these sons and his daughters who we haven't heard much about and she could tell us what he was really like. She could tell me all the stories about Miles, Benjamin Jr and Reese when they were young. She would tell me about raising her children as a Pioneer woman and maybe we would have a wild turkey dinner with succotash, Yams and a pecan stuffing. Gaila

Gaila; I searched further back and found twins Drury Busby and Miles Busby were born 11 December 1732 in Henrico County, VA. (parents ??) Drury and Miles Buzbee were reported to have been in Capt.John Walkers Company in Granville County, North Carolina, militia in 1771. They are probably children of Simon and Martha Busby.

Hi All, Pat and I are going on a cruise 12/6 - 12/13, so will be out of touch until 12/14. If anyone wishes to join the DNABusby surname group, just submit your request and Pat and I will take care of it when we return. Have an exciting holiday season. Wayne & Pat

Sandra, the invitation is a standing one, any time you can accept would be a very pleasant occassion. Wayne

Sounds like a wonderful meal get together. LOL! Wayne

Linda How fascinating is that! You might be able to find more information about the wagon trains. I was quite surprised to see a picture of a conestoga wagon on Alabama information, because my visual image was Conestoga Wagons wending their way through prarie country. I think we should open it up to an ancestor and their spouse, even a sibling. I would hope some of the ladies would teach me to quilt after dinner.

Hi Sandra, good to hear from you!!! I live in Wesley Chapel just across the line from Tampa. Yes, I would really like to get together. If you are driving down I75 to see your daughter, stop in and visit or spend the night. Call first so I can arrange my schedule to be available. Pat and I would love to visit with you. Cousin Wayne

I would love to sit and talk with Lillian Busby Johnson for just a little chat could tell me volumes about all those Houston Co Busby`s Johnson`s Howards and several other ancestors she knows all about. My Grandfather could have given me alot of this info so if there are any out there that are young and have old timers still alive, ask them all these questions we wish we would have asked ours. Merry Christmas everyone Sandra
