Biography

Elizabeth (Rhodes) Bush, the daughter of David and Eve Rhodes,[1] was born 6 Feb 1779 in Nelson, Bedford, Pennsylvania.[citation needed]

She married William Bush 30 December 1794 in Elizabethtown, Hardin, Kentucky, USA.[2]

In 1850, Elizabeth Bush was head of household, 76 years old, and living in District 2, Hardin, Kentucky, USA.[3]

She died 15 Aug 1854 in Hardin County, Kentucky.[1]

Alternate DOD on some sites is 01 Nov 1828. This is clearly incorrect or refers to another person, as she is alive in 1850 on the census.

The William Bush house, 1927 Tunnel Hill Rd, Elizabethtown, Kentucky is on the National Register of Historic Places.[4]

Rhoads-334 and Rhoads-516 appear to represent the same person because: they have the same DOB and husband. Whichever date of death you choose in the merge, we can note the other date in the biography till we have a firm source. Thank you!

Rhoads-347 and Rhoads-334 appear to represent the same person because: they have similar birthdates and the same married name (Bush). If you agree to the merge, the discrepancy in the dates of death can be explained in the biography until we have a source for the information.
