Hi good to here from you. I have been researching a lot on Lexington co. SC and I don't think that Micajah Busby was the son of Needham. I follow Needham on the 1790 -1840 Lexington co. SC census and Needham has 3 sons that are all living next to him on the census. Hampton born 1775 Lexington co. SC Dempsey born 1780 Lexington co. SC Nathaniel born 1792 Lexington co. SC Also Micajahs wife Nancy is still alive in 1850 Henderson co. Ten. census and she sais she is born in 1770 in NC. When Micajahs brother Robert is born in 1769 in NC and I think Micajah is probably older then Robert because he is probably not younger than his wife Nancy who is born in 1770 so I think Micajah is born in 1767 in NC. Needham is born in Johnston co. NC in 1752 so I don't think that he is Micajahs dad I think he is his brother. On the 1790 and 1800 Lexington co. SC census this set of Busby are all living next to each other. And I see Nathaniel Busby living by all of them and I think he is there father since Nathaniel moved to Lexington co. SC in the 1770s from Johnston co. NC This is what I have figuered out: Nathaniel Busby born abt 1730 ? died 1801 Lexington co. SC 1801 wife Charity born ? died abt. 1809 Lexington co. SC sons: Needham born 1752 Johnston co. NC died 7-24-1840 Lexington co. SC wife Mary Ellisor born ? died ? Nathan born abt 1754 Johnston co. NC died ? wife and kids unknown John born abt 1756 Johnston co. NC died ? wife and kids unknown Sherad born abt 1760 Johnston co NC died 1829 Giles co. Ten. wife Mary Jacobs born ? died 1827 Giles co. Ten. Micajah born 1767 Johnston co. NC died 1840-1850 Henderson co. Ten. wife Nancy born 1770 NC died ? Robert born 1769 Johnston co. NC died 1850-1860 Stewart co. Ten. wife Francis born 1775 Ten. died ? I think Sherad, Robert and Micajah all move to Teneessee at the same time and lived on land in diffrent counties that are fairly close to each other.
