The following was printed off Genealogy.com in 2002 from an article titled "Pioneer Families of Missouri. BUSBY,-Matthew Busby, of Ireland, was a weaver by trade. He came to America and settled first in Delaware, from whence he removed to Bath Co., Ky., at an early age. He had seven sons, one of whom, James, married Nancy Lewis, of Delaware, by wh om he had eleven children-Isaac, Rolley, John, James, Hiram, Lewis, Granville, Elizabeth, Lucretia, Amanda and Malinda. Lewis and James settled in Missouri. The former married Eliza McClannahan, of Kentucky, and settled in Missouri in 1835. Hope this helps someone. cj
