If that is the case, he came to USA, Buffalo area, I think in 1851 or so, then up to Bruce County in Ontario. According to one message, he might have gone to Hensall, Ontario also. My interest is, when he came overseas, he had August Busch, B 1842 with him, younger brother to Adolphus, (Brewery) and my great grandfather, Sebastian Busch, B:June 12, 1845. Sebastian grew up in the Port Elgin area, married Catherine Bolander in 1871, thence his son Adam, thence his son Earl, and thence me, all in Bruce County, Ontario. Let me know if there is any connection. If so, we might be distantly related. I have been trying to find the connection in Germany, to no avail yet. Sebastian lists his birth place as Baden, which is about 300 K North of Wiesbaden, a huge distance in those days. If you get a chance, let me know where you are at with this search. Thank, John Busch. St Thomas, Ontario, Canada Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
