Co., OH) was brought to Jeff Co as a young boy by his father, Thomas. Your connection is most likely with this early pioneer. Asa’s wife was Mary A. GIRT, and their known children – Thomas, Hiram, Henry Wesley, Leonard and Charles. Variations on this name in MD – BUCEY/BUSEY/BUSSEY. My connection with the family is Susannah BUCEY b. 1737; mar. Nehemiah VEIRS (b. 1733) both from Montgomery/Fredrick Co., MD; lived in Amwell Twp., Wash. Co., PA (taxed 1773), purchased land 1796 along McMahons Run, Ohio/BrookeCo., VA/WV. Lived for a short time in Steubenville, Jeff. Co., OH 1807-d. bef. 1810 census. I haven't a document connecting Susannah to Thomas or Asa but suspect they are related as living near. Susannah has a proven siblings, Griffith, Dianah, Sarah, John and Samuel. Julia A. Heaton Krutilla's Ancestor Page: http://krutillaja.home.comcast.net/
