During the 1950's Miss Maud McClure Kelly of Birmingham, AL, had data that indicated that the Busey and Bussey families of Maryland were two separate families. They became confused in the records because of the phonetic spelling of both names.

Apparently, Paul Busey and George Bussey came to America about the same time but were not related. Mrs. Alice Leonard of Laredo, TX, wrote to my mother-in-law in 1958, that once she made this distinction, she was able to clear up a lot of the confusion she had between the two families.

Has anyone come across Miss Kelly's data or found the same information in the records?
