Hi Folks: I have asked this question on one other list serve, but received no answer. The talk about Wm. Jasper Busby prompted me to ask here. Here is what I know: Mary Seymour Busby was my grandmother, I knew her well. She was born in Buckatunna but lived most of her life in Montgomery, Al. Her father was Joseph M. (Manley/ Manly I think) Busby born in 1875; her mother was Annie Seymour Entrekin (her father was Wm. Jasper Entrekin b. 1847 in Al. coincidence I,m sure but prompted me to ask again abt. this line). I do not know who Joseph's father was. Does anyone have any idea? My grandmother talked of an uncle (great uncle perhaps?) named Orren (spelling?) who was a CSA veteran and died at an advanced age. I don't remember her saying who her grandfather was. There was an Orren, son of Steve Sheppard Busby, who served in the Mississippi Company of the 36th Ala. Inf. along with brothers and cousins (McIlwains). This (Orren) is not a common name. The census does not show a Joseph in the household of John H. or other Sheppard Busby sons. Maybe I missed it.
