Biography

Franklin was born in 1829. He passed away in 1907. He was married to Sarah Allen in 1855.

He is likely the son of Ephraim Rush and Elizabeth Marshall.

In 1870 Samuel M Rush was living in the household of Franklin J Rush. On Find A Grave Samuel is attached as Franklin's father. He is likely Franklin's uncle rather than father, because in the 1880 census and his death records, Samuel was noted as being single, rather than married or widowed. Franklin also moved to Vermillion County, Indiana, which is adjacent to counties where the known children of Samuel's brother Ephraim lived.

Another explanation is that Franklin is the son or grandson of Samuel Rush, of Vermillion County, Indiana. This other Samuel had a son named Samuel, the same age as Samuel M. Rush of Jackson County. However, this would not explain how Samuel M. was living in Franklin's house in Jackson County in 1870.
