Hello Paula, You can go to this webpage on the DAR Site and put in the details for the Busby you are looking for and they will get back to you. http://www.dar.org/natsociety/pi_lookup.cfm If you find an existing link on the DAR site, you can request that persons papers. That will show one line of descendancy through that man. Just follow the links on the DAR site.
