Bush, Jr. though it is problematic). I am pursuing all possible connections. My known connection is to William Bush who settled in SE Alabama (later Barbour County) in early 1800's. He married Sarah Williams. William seems to be related to Moses Eason Bush, son of John C. Bush, but exact relationship is unclear. The Wm. Bush you mention is a cousin somehow, but again relationships are unclear and controversial. Would love to discuss this family. Paul M. Hendricks, MD
