Tony, There is no mention at all of an Andrew Bushey in the Lower Bermudian records, nor is there one buried in their graveyard, unless the stone is missing. There is also no stone for William. There are two mentions of William Bushey in the Edna Albert translation of the church records: p. 40 William Bushey & Elisabeth (parents) Sarah Jane (child) b. 27 April 1843, c. 16 July 1843. p. 133 Confirmed on Easter Sunday 1777 Rudolph, Nicolaus, and Wilhelm Buschy, sons of Nicolaus. (ages 17, 16, and 15, respectively.) These are obviously two different Williams. There are plenty of other Busheys in those records, and many in the graveyard. I am interested in the Nicloaus Buschi who is in the Lower Bermudian records with a wife named Catharina, and a child b. 13 July 1763. The sponsors were "Johannes Cranester and Barbara". I would like to find out if Catharina Buschi is the daughter of Johannes and Maria Barbara Chronister, or if they were unrelated.
