I have plenty of Busbys in the neighbouring county of Oxfordshire - back to Nicholas Busby (Gent) born about 1630, some in my line and others apparently unrelated - it's quite a common Oxfordshire surname. Also I live in fairly easy reach of the Northamptonshire County Record Office, if you have a parish & approximate dates I could have a look on my next visit. All the best Dave Rossiter

If anyone needs a good book that cover lots of Busby's try the ones by Dick Buzbee He can be reached email: dickbuzbee@aol.com These books have been great help to me in my searches. Ida

Jodi: I agree regarding "the book" must contain only a select few or either there are more Busbys than any of us thought possible. Dottie

Thank you for offering to do lookups. I have searched for a copy of said book but have been unsuccessful so I really appreciate your help. I am looking for information on any of the following: Miles E. Busbee b.1829 -Aiken Co SC married Sarah Jane (Sallie) Johnson b. 1833 Leroy Busbee (son of Miles and Sallie) b. 4/2/1875 There are several Miles Busbees, and I have had difficulty locating info on mine. Also, records are even more scarce on Leroy. Thanks . Gonfishnc@aol.com wrote: > I have a copy of the book "The Indubitibitle Busbys", and would be > happy to > do lookups in it, as time permits.

Ann, I cannot find your family in the book. I'm beginning to wonder if this book contains anyones family....<grin> Sincerely, Jodi

Luellen, I was unable to find your William or Sarah Busby, as well as Cyrus McGhehney in the "Indubitable Busbee's". So sorry, Jodi

Hello Julius, Before you do anything on the ruse that Michael tried to put on us you had best read for your self what Michael had his rather stupid say about. What Michael said is not true at all. Go and read for your self. Go to: http://www.rootsweb.com/rootsweb/history.html#leverich and search for the word *cracker*. You will find this word in the 17th paragraph. Michael got excited while reading the 16th paragraph. There is nothing in either paragraph or anywhere else for that matter such as Michael thinks he read. Its simply not there - anywhere. Rootsweb.com is our (all genealogist) best friend and Dr. Brian Leverich is a highly educated man that has never done anything such as Michael says he read. We need to support rootsweb.com and what Michael has done will hurt our best genealogy friend without cause. Michael duped you but you don't had to stay duped. Look for your self. Good Luck.. ......

Subj: Re: The Indubititible Busby's Date: 7/1/99 7:56:31 PM Eastern Daylight Time From: AJillion To: BUSBY-L@rootsweb.com Hi, I've seen several e-mails regarding this book with requests for look-ups on certain names. My family would definitely be considered southern Busbys, therefore if possible, I would really appreciate it if the owner of this book would look up the names in bold print below. I've just started researching the Busby name and know very little about going about it to be quite honest. My father took me on a cemetery tour which has been the most helpful by far. Also, if anyone could please educate me on maybe the first 5 steps I should take in locating information. I do know about familysearch.com and have had good fortune with my mother's side of the family but not much with the Busby side. I find all sorts of Busbys but haven't a clue as to a possible connection. I understand that sometime around 1900, James Busby, Jr. moved to Texas. Any information would be helpful. Respectfully, Jill Alexander This is the part of the Busby family I am researching. Most of the people listed here were born in Georgia. I have the following information on Elias Busby: There were nine boys in his family (siblings). They sailed from Gals. Scotland in 1839. They came through Charleston, S.C. He and his wife had 2 boys and three girls. He is buried at Pine Ridge Methodist Church Cemetery, Paulding Co. Ga. I have the following information on William Wesley Busby: Born in England. When he was 10 years old (1939), he sailed from Glascow, Scotland to Charleston, S.C. Injured in Civil War. (1st Lt. Co. F, 40 Regt. Ga Inf.) Lived in Milner Ga. for two years before moving to Marthasville (Atlanta). He was a preacher. Buried at Bethany Christian Church , Paulding Co. GA.

Is there any mention of William Busby, late 1700's with a daughter Sarah, who married Cyrus McGhehey in Brown Co, Ohio 1-18-1827? I'm completely stumped at this spot. Thanks, Luellen Sutton

Thanks Jody...I really appreciate your time and trouble...and the search goes on!

It would appear that I have made a mistake, do not want information on Busbys I wanted information on Bushbys. Therefore could you please remove my email address from your system. Thank you.

Karen, The BUSBEE reunion is now over. But for your information, Most of the BUSBEE line is from Northern FL, Coffee Co. AL, Crawford Co. GA and Lexington Dist of Orangeburgh, SC. There may others that I am not aware of, it's been a few years since I frequented the reunion. With the new age of genealogy and the internet, there may be folks from all over attending. Sorry I couldn't give you a more definitive answer to assist you in your quest. Thanks, Julius KBLEVIN@aol.com wrote: > > I just saw that there is going to be a Busby reunion in AL.
