It appears that George Bush who first appears with land in 1784 in Laurens Co., SC was born about 1740-50. He has a wife named Elizabeth from 1798 onward.
His PROVEN son, William seems to have been born about 1770. He married Mary Thetford, the d/o Simon Thetford about 1790. Simon appears on the 1790 Laurens Co., SC census as does George Bush.
William and Mary's first child appears to be Simon Thetford Bush born ca 1790. The other children of Wm. and Mary are:
2. John Bush ca 1793 (reportedly moved to Jackson Co., ILL by 1850 which is where Dr. JOhn H. Bush's son, Palemon Cage Bush also located).
