Surnames: Buss Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4EC.2ACE/593.3.1 Message Board Post: Do you know who were the parents and/or grandparents of your Alfred John? My gr-grgrandfather was Abraham Buss, born in Pluckley, 1805. The family came to America and settled near Buffalo, NY about 1841. His brothers Daniel, Richard and Thomas and their families also came over the period of several years. I think a brother James also came over, but have no information on him. There may have also been sisters that may or may not have come to America. I think their parents may have been John Buss and Elizabeth Beenge. Marion Howard
