Dear Glenda, My John Busby, appeared in Maryland in the 1700's. Other branches of the Family; Price,Merryman, Gist, Wisner, etc., appeared earlier, approximately early 1600's. My main objective right now, is to find where John Busby came from and when. It's possible he may have settled in Virginia, Pennsylvania or just immigrated right to Maryland. John BusbySr., about 1791 in Baltimore County, Maryland. He married Edith Price abt. 1774. She was the daughter of Benjamin Price and Millicent Vaughn. John and Edith had 11 children. Mary Busby Elizabeth Busby Melinda Busby Dorcas Busby Benjamin Busby Rachel Busby Edith Busby John Busby, Jr. Abraham Busby Huldah Busby Ureth Busby After the death of her Husband, Edith traveled with her son, Abraham Busby. to Harrison County, Ohio. Abraham Busby had received a Land Grant from the U. S. Government for his participation in the War of 1812. John Busby, Jr., already settled in Harrison County in the early 1800s. He was born abt. 1776 in Baltimore County, Maryland. He married Agnes Wisner in 1801. Agnes was the daughter of Mathias and Manon Wisner. Until his Mother Edith's death, she resided with him and his family. John Busby, Jr., in 1853 in Ohio. John and Agnes had 14 children. Edith Busby Sarah Busby Rachel Busby Belinda Busby Elizabeth Busby Mary Ann Busby Dorcas Busby Harriet Busby Deborah Busby Jane Busby John W. Busby Abraham H. Busby Issac W. Busby Anna Busby Our line comes from John W. Busby. He was born March 28,1806 in Harrison County, Ohio. He married Anna Merriman April 24, 1826. Anna's parents are still a mystery...would appreciate any help there. John W. and Anna had 14 children. John M. Busby Issac Newton Busby Johnson Busby Andrew Jackson Busby Elijah Busby Thomas Busby Aaron Busby Samuel Busby Abraham Marion Busby Nancy Busby Elizabeth Busby Julia Busby Mary Busby Rachel Busby .....Abraham Marion is my husband's great grandfather. I don't think our John Busbys' are the same, but they might be related somehow. If any one has any ties to our bunch, I'd love to hear from you. We always love to meet new family! I will gladly share any info I have! Carla Busby
