John S Bush was born in Wymondham, England on the 23 of
December 1824. We find him next in Eaton Quebec Canada where he marries Alnetta
Sunbury daughter of Daniel and Polly (Otis) Sunbury in 1848. They arrive in America in 1856 and we next
find them in the Township of Olmsted in the 1860 Census living next to his
parents John and Sarah (Barnes) Bush on Columbia Road.
In about 1860 John Bush purchased 11 and 1/2 acres of land on
Columbia road. He started farming vegetables and selling them off a wagon. The exact date the house was built is
not known. The a part of the house might have been there when they bought the property. John S and Alnetta had three children. Horace Bush was born on the 18th
of October 1850 In Quebec. Jennie Bush was born in Quebec on the 6th
of January 1855. Their last child is George Bush was born in the Township of
Olmsted on the 6th of June 1858.
Horace Bush Married Annis Palmer daughter of George W and
Melissa (Belle) Palmer on the 12th of July 1872. They had 7 children who carried on the
tradition of truck farming. In a newspaper his daughter remembered when he was
selling from his wagon they started crossing the railroad track and noticed a
train coming. They crossed the tracks very fast and she remarked that after the
baskets spilled that they would be selling tossed salad today
Jennie Bush Married John Demaline Son of William Dimaline
and Adalissa Heston. Over the generations the spelling of the name has changed
Most of the current Generation uses the e not the i in their name. They had 2
Children. This part of the family was a connecter of 7 Surnames in the North
