It started, as good quests always do, with a family tale.


Sarah Faulkner (William, James, William) was born about 1789 in Ulster Co, New York to William Bull Faulkner and his second wife Agnes "Nancy" McWilliams. Sarah was the firstborn of this second marriage.

Sarah married William T Bush Jr about 1821 in New York.


Children born to this union include: (all born in Tompkins Co, New York)


  • Esther Bush b. 1 Nov 1821 d. 1856
  • Nancy J Bush b. 11 Aug 1823 d. 1880 (may have married Jacob Dudley)
  • Nelson Bush Sr b. 20 Aug 1826 d. 20 Nov 1909 m. 1st Margaret DeReamer 2nd Harriet Crawford
  • Joseph Faulkner Bush b. 9 Jun 1829 d. 2 Dec 1832

Sarah Faulkner Bush died July 22nd 1853 and is buried in the Newfield Village Cemetery in Tompkins Co, New York with her husband and both sons.
