Here is one contact that I have just made the past month on my BUSH line.....perhaps you will recognize a name or place: ''Here is the connection of Malone to John Henry Bush. As you can see that kindred Strickland had the big pice of land, This is where Mont. Pleasent Church is located and Kindred is burried. Kindred 's son Harkney was the Father to Mary Josephine Bush married to john Caneda Bush as His first wife. they had a son Clarance, She died two days later and Clarance two Years Later. At Mt Pleasent there is the row that starts of with Martin Strickland then Harkney , Martha, Next there are Two Elmore childern graves, then Clarance Bush , John Bush, Mary Josepine Strickland Bush , Two more Stricklands, then you come to Kindred Strickland and Tempy (Temerance) Strickland. John Henry Bushs Mother was Mary E Malone , John Caneda Bush's Second Wife also Burried at Mt, Pleasent.'' This is near Gordo, Pickens Co. Alabama. I had sent him a MAP........ My BUSH family did come to Alabama from South Carolina, but I don't know which county they were in. I do not recognize any of the Surnames you listed, but being in the same area, they may very well be related. This man that sent me the letter above is from Alabama and still lives there. So don't cross me off your list yet!
