Biography
Mary Bushong Rush, daughter of Jacob Bushong and Juliana Weigel, wife to George Rush, was born in York County, Pennsylvania in 1758 and passed away in 1799. Mary had no middle name but mistakenly, Elizabeth is often added to it. The mistake could perhaps be a mix-up with her sister, Elizabeth who was born two years prior.
- Elizabeth is her sister's name - not Mollie's name
