Her last name and mother's maiden names were varied on documents, and and many different spellings (Bushaw, Buskey, Busky, Bouskey, Bushy, Bushey). On her mother's death certificate it said the name was spelt Bouschier. However, I forgot that her mother (Ellen/Eleanor Gervais/Jarvis) had married at least 3 times (as did Hattie), and that at the time she would have been naturalized, they were living with Ellen's 3rd husband, George (or John) Ricker... in Orange County, Vermont. Have on idea where they would have gone to be naturalized. 1920 Census, Thetford, Orange Co, VT, Judd District. Soundex B400, Vol 7, E D 44, Sheet 8, Line 89. Hattie Bailey, age 49, born Canada. Immigrated 1879, Nauralized 1884. Enumerated with son, Archie A Bailey. 1900 Census, Strafford Town, Orange Co, VT. Soundex B400, Vol 7, E D 149, Sheet 4, Line 11. Joseph Baley, age 40, born Jan 1860, Canada French, Citizenship: Alien. Immigrated in 1875. Wife Hattie Baley, age 31, born March 1869, Canada French, Citizenship: Naturalized. Immigrated in 1882. Son Archable, age 9, born Feb 1891, Vermont. Son Earnest age 7, born Nov 1892, Vermont. Daughter Ellen M, age 4, born May 1896, Vermont. Daughter Julia E, age 1, born June 1898. Not expecting you have this information (naturalization record) in Rutland County, but felt it worth a shot to inquire. I am in Orange County, Vermont. Let me know if I can help you with anything from this area. Thanks... Tootsie Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
