Searching for connections to BUSHFIELD/KERN line. Have a great
deal of information on descendants of Samuel BUSHFIELD (1767-1832),
specifically his eldest son, George Taylor BUSHFIELD (1791-1822),
who moved to S.E. Indiana (Dearborn/Switzerland Co.) from Westmoreland
County, PA in 1817 and drowned in 1822 at age 31, leaving six
children. George married Catherine KERN, daughter of Jacob and
Susanna KERN, who also left Westmoreland Co. PA in 1817 and settled
in Switzerland Co., where many of their family are buried at
Ebenezer Cemetery. Catherine KERN BUSHFIELD later married Rev.
Cornelius RUDDELL/RUDDLE and they moved to Jeffersonville (Clark
Co.), Indiana with five of her six children. Catherine and Cornelius
later had one child, Jacob RUDDELL. Catherine's oldest child,
James Spielman BUSHFIELD, was taken back to PA by his grandfather
and never returned to Indiana. The remaining five children of
George Taylor BUSHFIELD grew up in Clark Co.

Any information on the NEELD and/or MERRIFIELD surnames. William NEELD
and Jemima MERRIFIELD were wed
in KY prior to moving to Clark County in early 1800s. They had several
children, one of whom was Mary
NEELD who married John Thompson LITTELL. I have found information on
some of Mary's siblings, but for
her sister Jane I have not been able to find anything on her. Is there
any information available as to
whom she married, if she ever did, when she died, whether she had
children. Any information on this
family is deeply needed. Thank you. Antoinette Waughtel Sorensen
