Hi Lee and list, The reference below (Saluda) reminded me there is a Saluda Hill and Saluda cemetery just north of Spanish Fort, Alabama (just east of Mobile, Alabama) that overlooks a valley. I wonder if someone from the Saluda, S.C. area came, saw it, and it reminded them of home??? Or, was someone named Saluda and named it?

I would want to spent an evening with my Gr-Grandfather, William Jasper Busby of Saluda, SC; b. 1859 d. 1932. Would ask him who his parents were and all about them and if he really had several (4) brothers according to family legend. Also would like to spend some time with my Grandfather Ernest Christopher Busbee who was shot to death in 1951 by his 2nd wife's lover and my Grandmother Rosa Lee Callahan Busbee who died in 1926 at age 19 after giving birth to my father. Lee Follow Joan Rivers example --> get pre-embalmed.

Here is an assignment: If you could have ONE of your Busby ancestors - one you never met - for a family feast sometime this month, which ancestor would you invite? What would you hope to hear about? Later in the month - these items will be your homework: During Christmas get togethers, at Christmas Dinner and on your Christmas Cards and ask Who has old photos? Will they share so you can make a copy? Who can remember an Old story? or tradition? Where did the family Bible go? Instead of arguing about policitics over Turkey dinner, perhaps you can get some stories going about Christmases past. In January, the Busby list will want to hear your reports. The Holidays are a time to connect and I hope you are enjoying the lead up to Christmas. But do your homework!! Gaila

I would invite my g-gf, John H. Busby, b 1857, d abt. 1950, OH>MI>TX, and ask him what his middle name is, and ask him about his wife, siblings and parents.

If I could sit down and visit with one ancestor I would like for it to be Seaborn W. Buzbee/Busby. I would hope that he would share all of the imformation about his family and Rachel Sturkie's family with me. Then I would know where he came from and also where Rachel Sturkie came from. Wouldn't it be wonderful to go back for 24 hours. Marilyn

115 years that is so amazing.....and kind of hard to believe for a busby

I don't know any personally, but my gr-gr-grandfather, James C Busby sold 2 acres to an Ivy in Fayette Co., Tx in the late 1800's. That property is still owned by Ivy's. Also there was an Ivy in some sort of official position in many of the old documents we have found from 1858 to 1923 Also according to one of the cousins, there have always been an Ivy connection around the group of Busbys who moved from Fayette Co., Tx to Bell Co., Tx in 1940. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Jerry L.

I would like to sit down to 'suppah' with Zachariah Busby at his final stopping point in Wayne CO., MS and learn about his sojourn from SC>TN>MS and get to know who his father was. This would probably be sometime before 1850. Howard Busby

I would have Meredith Busby b abt 1800 in Tn to James Busby and married to Minerva Hunt in 1826, Shelby Co., Tn. He is my gr-gr-gr-grandfather. I would ask him about the family and who was who. Why he went to Pontotoc Co., Ms with his father in the 1840's. I would ask about the way they lived back then. I would ask him who his mother was and why in the world did they name all of the children James and George W. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Gaila & James Merrington" <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2003 07:40:48 +1100 Here is an assignment: If you could have ONE of your Busby ancestors - one you never met - for a family feast sometime this month, which ancestor would you invite?
