Joseph Bushey^[1]

1818 - 1887  (68 years)

• Name	Joseph Bushey  [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
  Born	7 Nov 1818	, Berks, Pennsylvania, United States   [2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
  Gender	Male
  Land Purchase	9 Apr 1860	, Schuyler, Missouri, United States   [8]
  	12 acres in the SW corner of Sec 9 T64 R15
  	He purchased the property from James P. Mikel for $160. The property was described as "commencing at the SW corner of Sec 9, running north far enough so as to include a spring (the South one), thense due east far enough so as to include 12 acres, thence due south to the section line, thence west to the commencing point." The deed conveyed the land plus "all rights, immunities, privileges and appurtenances except the shingle machine".
  Occupation	Jun 1860	Salt River Township, Schuyler, Missouri, United States   [2]
  	Farmer
  Occupation	Jun 1870	Salt River Township, Schuyler, Missouri, United States   [3]
  	Farmer
  Land Sale	22 Dec 1871	, Schuyler, Missouri, United States   [9]
  	12 acres in SW corner of Sec 9 T64 R15 (less ¼ acre)
  	This was the same parcel previously purchased 9 Apr 1860, excluding one quarter acre located in the NW corner of said parcel. He sold the property to Henry Myers for $35. Interestingly, the legal description on this deed was written improperly (that is, the boundary lines could not possibly connect as written). However, a second deed was written 5 Nov 1875 conveying title to the same party (for an additional $150), apparently addressing the error. The family home was probably located on the ¼ acre parcel and they likely continued living in this same location.
  Occupation	Jun 1880	Salt River Township, Schuyler, Missouri, United States
