    3. The only sons noted in this Benjamin's will are Reese, Benjamin Jr. and Miles. His will is dated 1815 in SC and his wife at the time of his death is Suzannah. The other interesting factor was one of the first items of the will, was to free his slave, Ned. This is the abstract done by Leonardo Andrea "60 BENJAMIN BUZBEE of Edgefield....a will sg. 4 Oct 1815 pr. 23 Oct 1815.....Susannah BUZBEE....Children BENJAMIN BUZBEE JR....the 100a of land where I live. REECE BUZBEE $400 in money, MILES BUZBEE....100 bushels of corn...see #42 "my wife Susannah is to have my old mare and al of my stock and meat cattle and 50 bushels of corn." Exs: Nathan Morris & Anail Sawyer. Wit: Jacob Dominick, Catherine Dominick & Elbert H Norris." By the census age, my Reese Busby (aka William Reese Busbee) was born about 1775- 1780. There may have been other children who had already gotten their portion and so are not named. He married Mary Winn born c1785. He may have been married previously. Hope this has helped. I would search through the Leonardo Andrea files on the Busby homepage, as several Stephens are mentioned.
