2013 BUSH GATHERING CANCELLED

I regret to inform you that the Bush Family Association gathering planned for Edgefield SC this coming weekend must be cancelled. There are very, very few of us registered to attend this year.  In addition, the individual scheduled to provide our Saturday program has had a personal family matter come up and is unable to be with us, leaving us with very little to offer for your trouble and expense in making the trip .

If you wish to come to Edgefield anyway, the Thompkins Genealogical Library is open on Friday and Saturday and would be available for your use.  There is a good bit of Bush family data on file there, and the staff is very helpful. Also the Edgefield County Archives is open on Friday. Their staff, also, is more than willing to assist in your research.

As far as I know, the 2014 gathering will be this same weekend, and ordinarily is held in Laurel, MS in even-numbered years. You will receive more information about that in due time.

Your registration payment ($25 per person) will be refunded soon.

With sincere regrets and apologies, 
JOHN BUSH, President
