Oh your lucky I wish I only had one brick wall. Mine is here in the US and he is Phillip Busby married to Margaret (?) Busby. they had six known children William Riley Busby; Greenberry Haywood Busby; Francis Marion Busby; Nancy Jane (Busby) Wyatt; Margaret Joanna (Busby); Olmstead, Taylor; and Mary Busby. I can locate all the children except Nancy Jane after 1853. and no one has a clue as to Phillip's parents or Margaret maiden name. So theres just some of my brick walls.

May I share with you a similar problem. I have never been able to resolve this. A headstone in a presbyterian church grave yard in the north of Ireland reads accordingly. "Erected by George Busby in memory of his mother Susanna Busby who departed this life 19 Jan 1863, aged 72. Despite years of research I have never been able to find anything on George. He has disappeared of the face of the earth." This is what we call a brick wall in genealogy. Thankfully this is my only one.
