I also watch the boards for any info that might be related to my Buzbee line. I believe that we may be researching some of the same. Of course all are probably related. Are you saying that Stephen is the older brother of William Buzbee (m. Elizabeth Key)? William is my 3rd g-grandfather. William had a son Jacob Latin Busbee. I did not know that Jacob was the name of William's father until I read your post. Jacob Latin Busbee named his oldest son William and he named his son Jacob. Which gives me Jacob - William - Jacob - William - Jacob. Each named their oldest son after their father's. Oh, what a confusing concept. :) William's two sons, Jacob and Martin (he died during the war) were in the Confederacy. Jacob lived to collect a pension. I haven't been able to discover why Jacob Latin Busbee left Walker County and moved to Lincoln County, TN. Could someone tell me where I can find the info that William Buzbee and Elizabeth Key were married in St. Clair County in 1821. I too believe that the Keys and Buzbee's travelled together. A few of William and Elizabeth's children married Keys. Teresa Wilbanks
Teresa, I talked with you over the phone about our Busby family. Here is a page link to marriages in St. Clair County, AL and the marriage is listed for William Buzbee and Elizabeth Key http://home.houston.rr.com/thebattlesfamily/Early%20Marriages%20in%20St.%20Clair%20County,%20AL.htm I visited the St. Clair County Courthouse back in Oct. with Ida Reno. The bride is listed as Elizabeth Ray (the writing is very hard to read), but other researchers have her as Elizabeth Key. In the 1850 Walker County, Alabama census, Elizabeth Key's brother Martin Key is living in household 245 and William and Elizabeth Buzbee are in household 257. William Buzbee (m. Elizabeth Key) is my 3rd great grandfather. His son William Buzbee born 1830 and then his son W. D. Buzbee (I believe he is also a William) who was listed as David Buzbee in the 1900 census of Walker County, Alabama. All these William's get a bit confusing too! I sure am glad to see all of this information coming forward on the Buzbee family. I thought I never would find my connection. Great to see the board so active.

We didn't Know Jacob Latin Busbee was in the war but heven't research him much,But we have Jacob Latin born feb 1824 followed by an Elizabeth 1829 then William jr about 1830.William jr. enlisted in the Ala Calvalry in Arkadelphia with brother Dock, but I also have info that William jr. was in 32nd Ala. Calv. at end of war A lot of units were moved around during the war, and confederate records are hard to find. I'm still researching this through Stanford U.I thought Jacob left Ala. when he got married andnever went back to Ala. and his offspring Eventually ended up in Ark. I believe. I had a note on my papers Lawrence county Tenn, so I checked the map and theres a town called Busby there.Somebody thought that maybe some of these Busbys might have gone to Tenn after the war to find work for a couple a three years. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, January 18, 2004 12:14 AM Subject: Re: [Busbee Busby] Stephen Busby - AL I also watch the boards for any info that might be related to my Buzbee line.

I am sure everyone is aware of this website but in case you were not, thought you might want to look over the Busby information on it. It is Pam Roland's site http://www.geocities.com/misteshado/Roland.html There is a family tree of descendants of John Busby born Abt. 1659 in East Claydon Burkinghamshire England. There is also marriage certificates for Jacob Buzbee, Jane Buzbee, Jeremiah Buzbee, Joshua Buzbee, Charlotte Buzbee and William Buzbee. Also several pages out of Buzbee Book with Jacob Buzbee's Revolutionary War Accounts. Glenda
