Surnames: Busch, Buch Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/VEH.2ACIB/21.28.1 Message Board Post: Wow! What a GREAT surprise to hear from you! Clendina, is my Grandmother's Mother's sister. My Grandmother's mother was Ella Magdeline (or Elsie), who married Otto Ferdinant Schwinge. I guess that makes my Grandmother - Clara Marie Schwinge Gebauer, your father's first cousin. I will ask her if she remembers your father. There has been so many variations of the Busch name. As a matter of fact, I spoke with "Aunt Lou", who I believe is Nora's daughter and also lives in San Antonio, just recently, and she told me that it is actually BUCH -- no S. However, my Grandmother, tells me it is BuSch. The death and birth certificates I've seen say BuCh. What a funny story about the inheritance. I'll share that with my Grandmother. She is 88 and lives with me in Marble Falls, Texas. I would LOVE further contact -- this stuff fascinates me!! My email address is magw@airmail.net. As far as Dale Gebauer Rebold -- not sure. I haven't heard that name before, however, with Gebauer being such a rare name in these parts, I wouldn't doubt a relation somewhere down the line. Would you be willing to share any family history you may have already collected?
