I am trying to figure out which county in SC my William Busby was from. I have been guessing it is around the Union county area. He was born about 1792 in SC. By 1815-1817 he was in Jefferson County, TN, where he married Sally Sparks. The Sparks family was from Union county. They were in KY (Adair Co), about 10 years later, and were in Lawrence Co., MO by 1850. I have decided to use my family research for a master's thesis. I'm examining migration patterns. Knowing his county will definitely help. I've ordered pension info on his (War of 1812) and I'm hoping there is useful info. there. Their children were: Anne, Matilda, Miles, Joseph, Samuel, Thomas, William, Jane, Polly, Martha, Elizabeth. I've seen several postings discussing Miles, I wonder if he is a brother or something. His son, William, has a middle name of Flowers. In a bio. published in one of those county histories, it mentions that as a child they grew tobacco. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Stephanee Smith stsmith@iw.edwpub.com
