Thanks for the information about the Busby cemetery, and the book. I don't recognize any of the names in your family. But who knows? There were a bunch of Busbee's in my family. There might be a connection somewhere there. My family (at least the two brothers who moved to Florida) use the "bee" at the end of their names. I've always assumed the other siblings did, too.
