They lived in Altoona. They had a daughter Florine and possibly three sons - George, Raymond and Maurice. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thank you. http://genforum.genealogy.com/pa/blair/messages/642.html Re: Bushbys Posted by: Gloria Ranker (ID *****0473) Date: November 24, 2005 at 06:03:06 In Reply to: Re: Bushbys by jc of 679 The Bushbys I am looking for are Thomas Bushby who died between 1896 and 1900 and his wife Catherine Gabert born 7/1864. They had 4 children: George, Florine, Raymond and Maurice. We have tracked down the children but are unable to find Thomas and Catherine's gravesite or where they died. George and Florine were born in Altoona, Pa. I'm not sure of the others birthplace. Catherine was born in Huntingdon Co., Pa. and lived with son Raymond and family in Manhattan in the 1930 Census. ######################### Re: Bushbys Posted by: jc (ID *****5058) Date: March 25, 2006 at 19:46:20 In Reply to: Re: Bushbys by Gloria Ranker of 678 Name: Charles Seibert (actually the given name is unreadable; I would "guess" that it is Charlotte given that the census taker wrote "F" for female in the box Home in 1900: Pittsburgh Ward 20, Allegheny, Pennsylvania Age: 35 Estimated birth year: 1865 Birthplace: Pennsylvania Race: White Relationship to head-of-house: Head Census > U.S. Census > 1900 United States Federal Census > Pennsylvania > Allegheny > Pittsburgh Ward 20 > District 245 Seibert, Charlotte (my read of the census record) Head July 1875 Bushby, Catherine Partner July 1864 PA PA PA George J.
