    • Roane County WV Birth Record
      Geo Wm Bush Nov 1859 Wm & Lucinda Bush, filed by father

      His marriage record shows his parents were WL and Lucinda. The children found with him in 1900 are his and Victoria's and he is married to Mollie. The only marriage record for a Mollie to a Bush is the one to George in Gilmer Co. 1910 census shows they were both married before but both 1900 and 1910 show married 10 years. (Someone couldn't count?) His son, William Clark, was the informant on his death record, but did he (Clark) know his grandparents?? Or did he get them confused with his other grandparents?

      William's marriage record shows his parents as Peter and Lucinda, and George's marriage record shows his parents as WL & Lucinda but his death record shows parents as Peter Bush and Rebecca Smith. Was William called Peter or ?????? Wrong death record for George? Is there another George Bolan Bush??? Not in Wood Co in 1930, and the death record shows he died there.
