    1. Re: Sherad,Robert and Micajah Busby - Your Post
    2. Jeff - I've been trying to sort out the late 1700's to mid 1800's info on my line. It appears that we have a common ancestor in Micajah, Sr. John Wesley Busby, my ggrandfather, of Iuka/Tishomingo county MS, was the son of Robert and Sarah Adeline Caroline Turner. Robert was born in Dickson Co., TN, 1819 and was the son of Sion and Jane Nolen Busby. I believe Sion was born 1801 in Fairfield Co., S.C. Sion was son of Micajah Busby, Sr. Micajah was son of Needham Busby. Needham was born Johnson Co., N.C. in 1754. He is Rev. War veteran, Pension # 59114. My information is mainly through family I've "bumped into" on the net. William Johnson and Eddie Carson of Iuka, MS are in our line and have given me most of my information to-date. I've been having trouble tracking the movements of Micajah Sr., Sion and Robert from N.C., S.C., TN and MS. I don't know Sion's middle initial or exact places of residence; I am told he is listed in the 1850 Tunica Census. Let me know if you concur that our lines are the same one and if you can help me with my questions. Thanks for your help! Bill Busby Frankfort, IL (815) 469-8770
