Ephraim Bush
Married Charlotte Woolley; came with the above [Isaac Bush], his brother at the same date; also well educated; a music teacher and expert violinist. Fell from Miamitown Bridge in 1838; found drowned. Both Bushes had also unusually courtly manners and were authorities on etiquette. Children: Joseph, married Mary Jane Day; and two younger boys, who, in 1841 were taken to Indiana by Thomas Wooley, he who had been H. L. Wilmer's partner in three separate successful enterprises. Ephraim bought a lot in 1829 adjoining James Richardson west with a log house, which in 1835 was bought by Dr. Kendall and weather-boarded. This was the Methodist parsonage to the nineties, at least. Like Isaac, he was also an expert with axe and scythe, in fact was a "handy" man.
